Floating from city to city as a child, HK has seen all parts of the Bay from the safe streets to the worst. HK was the son of a small time pimp who left his life at the age of 6 forcing his mother to take on two jobs to support his family. HK spent most of his childhood alone with music as his only friend and guidance. The silence of an empty household drove HK to walk the streets of San Francisco with his radio tape player by his side. HK would sing along with his radio tape player to the tunes of his favorite artist including JT the Bigga Figga, San Quinn, E-40, and Mac Dre but his major influences were Eazy-E and Tupac Shakur. HK began freestyle rapping at a local corner store where the neighborhood boys hung out. People in the neighborhood began noticing HK and he no longer felt alone. HK started writing at age 9, in hopes to forget about his difficult upbringing, writing lyrics to send his troubles away. He recorded his first track at age 14 and from there started growing a consistent fan base. He knew this was his calling, and pursued music like he pursued life, with no inhibitions.

Since then HK has collaborated with many artist such as The Boo Yaa Tribe, Matai of P-Vine Records (Japan), Bay Dawgs, Big Laz of Upstairs Records/Melendez Ent., Y.S. of Most Bangin Ent./Song BMG, 500, Charizma of Go Bigg Ent./Jungle Rock and A-R Star. Through networking with artist from different genres HK began experimenting with his own style swaying away from his in your face gangster rap delivery to a more toned down pop sound.

HK keeps hard at work not only in the studio but also on stage opening up for many major artist including The Game and David Banner and has performed at various Bay Area night clubs and venues as well as large festivals and college functions.

From his work behind the microphone to doing shows, HK refuses to fall into the same category as your average Bay Area Hyphee rapper with his own sound developed through years in the studio. HK now records and engineers his own music keeping a consistent stream of hits for his followers. Keep a look out for HK and his upcoming events and new music!

Né quelque part
HK Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

On choisit pas ses parents
On choisit pas sa famille
On choisit pas non plus
Les trottoirs de Manille
De Paris ou d'Alger
Pour apprendre à marcher
Etre né quelque part
Etre né quelque part

C'est toujours un hasard
C'est toujours un hasard

Y a des oiseaux de basse cour et des oiseaux de passage
Ils savent ou sont leur nids, quand ils rentrent de voyage
Ou qu'ils restent chez eux
Ils savant ou sont leur œufs

Être né quelque part
Etre né quelque part
C'est partir quand on veut
Revenir quand on part

Est-ce que les gens naissent
Égaux en droits
A l'endroit
Ou il naissent

Est-ce que les gens naissent Égaux en droits
A l'endroit
Ou ils naissent
Que les gens naissent
Pareils ou pas

On choisit pas ses parents, on choisit pas sa famille
On choisit pas non plus les trottoirs de Manille
De Paris ou d'Alger
Pour apprendre à marcher

Je suis né quelque part
Je suis né quelque part
Laissez moi ce repère

Ou je perds la mémoire

Nom'inqwando yes qxag iqwahasa
Est-ce que les gens naissent

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to HK's song "Né quelque part" talk about the idea of not choosing where we are born and the circumstances that come with it. The song emphasizes that we do not choose our parents, our family, or the location we grow up in. Whether it be the streets of Manille, Paris, or Alger, these surroundings shape how we learn to walk and navigate the world. Being born somewhere is always a matter of chance, a coincidence that we have no control over.

The song also explores the notion of migration and mobility. Using the metaphor of birds, it suggests that some people are like domesticated birds who know their nests and return home after traveling, while others are more like birds of passage, constantly on the move. Being born somewhere means having the choice to leave whenever one wants, but also the option to come back.

The lyrics raise questions of equality and human rights. Does everyone have the same rights from birth, regardless of where they are born? Should people be treated equally, regardless of their place of birth? These questions challenge the idea that our birthplace should define our worth and opportunities in life.

In summary, "Né quelque part" reflects on the arbitrary nature of birthplace, the different experiences and challenges it brings, and the enduring desire for a sense of belonging and identity.
