Hey David Kofi, Thanks for coming to Honk Magazine to talk about your music career. Tell us a little more about when you first got into music?

I started playing keyboard in church aged 13 years. I started piano learning at school at aged 8 but I enjoyed it more when I was introduced to Gospel music.

If you could describe your sound/style in one word, what would it be and why?

I have a gospel background which is a big part of my playing. I have R&B, neo-soul, and jazz influences infused into my playing.

What would you say to any aspiring recording artists who look to your work?

Find an artist you like and study them as much as you can. For me, Robert Glasper is someone I look up to. I would also encourage artists to find a part-time job to help fund their music career if possible. Have a plan and don’t be scared to ask for help.

Do you have anything new or upcoming we can expect to see from you?

I have my second EP ‘Kokoro’ coming out on Friday 10th September

Migos Reunion Album Could Arrive in January 2027 as Quavo Teases Group’s Return

Quavo suggests Migos may be gearing up for a big comeback as the group’s anniversary, hinting that the trio’s new album could be on the way by January 2027.

Quavo sat down with Baller Alert for a recent interview where he discussed Migos’ legacy, his relationship with Offset after their spat, and how Takeoff’s passing will be felt forever. The chat also gave a clearer sense of when fans can expect new music from Quavo and Offset as Migos.

The rapper has teased an upcoming Migos album in the past, and his latest comments suggest the project is nearing completion. He said he and Offset have been working together and teased that the album is almost ready to be turned in. With the Migos anniversary coming in January, he teased fans might hear something around that time.

The next project will also carry a heavy emotional weight following Takeoff’s death. Both Quavo and Offset have honored his legacy, making any potential Migos return a significant moment for the group and fans. Quavo also hinted that the album will not be another installment in the Culture series and teased a tour to coincide with the project.

Quavo has his own new album on the way before that potential reunion. QRÖMELIFE is set to drop on October 2, and Pharrell helped behind the boards on the project. The album already has a few singles attached to it, including “Backwards” featuring T.I., “Trance (Walk It Down),” and “HAAVIN.”

As of now, January 2027 remains a possibility rather than a confirmed release date. Still, with Quavo and Offset said to be working together and the anniversary of the Migos on the horizon, new music could offer fans a new chapter in the group’s story while keeping Takeoff’s legacy firmly established.

Yella Beezy’s Mo3 Murder Trial Gets New Court Date Before October Jury Selection

Next month, the jury selection process will get underway for the Yella Beezy murder-for-hire case. This is part of the legal proceedings surrounding the 2020 killing of Dallas rapper Mo3.

Beezy’s next hearing is set for October 6, 2026, in Dallas, Texas, according to the Dallas County Clerk and court documents reportedly obtained by Instagram user No Jumper. Judge Chika Anyiam is expected to preside ahead of jury selection later this month.

The latest court date follows Beezy and his defense team’s request for a delay. His trial was scheduled to begin Monday, September 14, but his attorneys asked for more time to obtain the written record from White’s trial. The defense also said a scheduling conflict involves an expert witness they plan to call. Prosecutors did not object to the request, and Judge Anyiam granted the delay.

White’s conviction could put some of the same evidence and arguments from his proceedings back in the spotlight at Beezy’s trial. But the allegation of Beezy orchestrating the killing presents a key issue unique to his case , the prosecutors’ efforts to prove payment. How the evidence is presented and challenged will be a key part of the proceedings.

Another co-defendant is involved in the case. Prosecutors say Brown was allegedly in the car with White when Mo3 died in the Dallas Interstate 35 ambush. Brown is also charged with capital murder in the case.

The next big date on the calendar for now is October 6, when Beezy and his legal team are due back in court. Jury selection is scheduled for October 26, another significant step in the long-running legal saga surrounding the death of Mo3.
