@d Kins — Rooted in the heart of Rockford, Illinois, @d Kins is a independent artist built on real hustle, humble beginnings, and an unwavering drive for the future. Guided by a strong sense of focus and the vision of an Aquarius Sun, his movements are defined by ambition, integrity, and purpose.

Pearl Muun is a rising force in the Tax Free Records family — a lyricist whose voice cuts through the noise with raw honesty and undeniable presence. Rooted in the same Rockford underground that shaped the label, Pearl Muun brings a feminine perspective to the mic that is equal parts fierce and poetic. Her music explores identity, resilience, and the grind of building something real from nothing — delivered over beats that hit as hard as her words.
