Ki Bohiti of 7Triiibes Drops Anticipated New Project “The Anteiku Tapes, Vol. 2”

Ki Bohiti returns with the highly anticipated second chapter of The Anteiku Tapes series, following the success of Volume 1 in 2023. Since the release of his first installment, Ki has been deeply involved in his community, most notably through the transformation of an abandoned lot into the “9th Street Guerrilla Garden.” Unfortunately, this community initiative was cut short due to challenges with the property owners, who returned after 20+ years to destroy the garden, leaving it once again filled with trash. The entire experience highlights larger issues in Hudson County, such as the hoarding of land by slumlords and the ongoing push for gentrification.

In light of these struggles, Ki decided to use a photograph of the garden before its transformation as the cover art for The Anteiku Tapes Vol. 2, sending a powerful message of resistance, resilience, and community power. The artwork mirrors the themes of the music itself and reaffirms Ki’s commitment to his artistry and his neighborhood. The album was initially released for direct sale through his website, theanteikutapes.org, showcasing an innovative approach to monetizing music in an era where artists earn little from streaming. Although the album is now available on streaming platforms, purchasing directly from the website remains the best way to support the artist.

UndergroundHipHopBlog.com has been keeping close tabs on Ki Bohiti and the entire 7Triiibes crew, especially since their visit to the DTLA HQ, where they laid down a classic mic session that caught the attention of hip-hop heads everywhere. For Volume 2, Ki brought together a talented group of producers, including Mad Era, War Ready, Jazz Market, Above, Wolverine, Action Figure, Rex Rome, Apito Goiez, and Biko Mental, to create the perfect sound for this powerful project.
