Johnny Richter

As co-emcee of one of the underground’s hottest groups for the past decade, the Kottonmouth Kings, Johnny Richter has come and conquered. With his cohorts in Kottonmouth Kings, Richter has sold more than 2 million records, rocked shows from Amsterdam to Japan, and helped to build an underground musical movement that peaked with the group’s latest album hitting #26 on the Billboard Top 200. Now after climbing the mountain to musical longevity, Johnny Richter is standing at the top ready for his next musical conquest. Grabbing the spotlight, Richter released his first ever solo album for release entitled Laughing.

Coloring outside the lines of any genre-specific formula and blurring the boundaries between hip-hop and rock, Johnny Richter created a solo record that attacks listeners on all fronts. “This record was cool to make because I had a blank canvas that I could use to create anything I wanted,” says Richter. “When we’re working on a Kottonmouth Kings or a Kingspade record everyone has input on the record and how they think it should sound. This solo release is all me, so I could write at my own pace and everything was written just solely for myself.” Jonny Richter has consistently worked to raise the bar, challenging himself and his listeners, and his solo album is no different. Laughing is an audio autobiography for one the most captivating emcees in the underground.
