To this date he has released 8 albums, including one that was made in collaboration with norwegian producer/legend Tommy Tee.
Unlike most other Swedish rappers Ken attracted alot of controversy, because of his tendency to bring out social issues such as crime, jail, drugs and ethnic integration in his songs. Especially controvercial was his song "Stockholms blodbad" (translated "the Stockholm Blood-bath"). In this song he is perceived as promoting the murder of the royal family as well as the rape of the princesse. Although he himself claims the statements of the song to be of a strictly rhetorical type, Swedish media and opinion were unforgiving. Ken was shunned from social events and popular media for a long time. Most of his supporters cite this as evidence of the cowardly way in which Swedish media never misses a chance to scrutinize uncomfortable outsiders.

Black Phantom
Ken Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I made myself a clone
I take a walk in space
I live with an absent heart these days
The lights gone out within
I´ll scream and shout again
What you want from me? I´m fading in the front
I live with an absent heart these days
I live with an absent heart these days
Surround me with your love while i´m traveling
Poor dandy slipped to the stones
Can you see the trace inside my absent heart?
It´s around the world! it´s around the world!
I live with an absent heart these days
I live with an absent heart these days
The lyrics to Ken's song Black Phantom speak about a sense of isolation and disconnection from the world around him. He sings about escaping from his everyday life by creating a clone of himself, which could possibly indicate a desire to run away from himself or his problems. As he walks in space, he realizes that the light has gone out within him and he feels himself fading away. He asks what others want from him, as he struggles to maintain a sense of identity and purpose.
The chorus of the song suggests that love could be the answer to this inner turmoil, as he asks to be surrounded by it while traveling. He compares himself to a "poor dandy slipped to the stones," perhaps indicating that he sees himself as a lost and broken individual. In the final lines, he repeats that he lives with an absent heart these days, which again speaks to his feelings of emptiness and disconnection from the world.
Overall, the song seems to capture a sense of loneliness and existential angst that many people may feel at some point in their lives. By using space imagery and metaphors of clones and isolation, Ken creates a vivid and poignant picture of a person struggling to find their place in the world.
