Kevin Brereton (born February 20, 1972), better known by his stage name k-os ( "chaos"), is a Canadian rapper, singer, songwriter and record producer. His given name may also be cited as Kheaven, a spelling he later adopted. The alias "k-os", spelled with a lower case "k", was intended to be less aggressive than the pseudonyms of other rappers whose names were all upper case, such as KRS-One. It is an acronym for "Knowledge of Self," although in a later interview he said that it originally stood for "Kevin's Original Sound." k-os received his first musical exposure with the single "Musical Essence", released in 1993. After the release of his second single "Rise Like the Sun" in 1996, he withdrew from the industry because he was dissatisfied with his musical style. He reappeared briefly in 1999 and released his debut album ''Exit'' in 2002. The album received positive reviews but sold relatively few copies. He released his second album ''Joyful Rebellion'' in 2004, which received platinum status in Canada. A third album, ''Atlantis: Hymns for Disco'', was released in 2006 and also went platinum. His fourth album, ''Yes!'', was released in 2009. His fifth album ''BLack on BLonde'' was released in 2013. k-os will be performing opening night at the Luminato Festival on June 14, 2013.
