Artist Introduction — Kehmuel
Kehmuel “Kehmi.” Watson is an emerging artist, producer, and founder of Overdue Recordings, known for his clean sound, attention to detail, and self-made approach to music. Born in Tucson, Arizona, and raised in Alaska, he developed his craft quietly, long before anyone knew his name.
His journey started with DJing small gatherings, but it didn’t take long before he wanted to create his own sound. Using his grandmother’s laptop and a free online program, he produced his first beat — the beginning of years spent experimenting, studying, and refining his style. Music quickly became more than a hobby; it became a discipline.
Working under “Kehmuel” as an artist and “kehmi.” as a producer, he built his identity off consistency, patience, and precision. Before releasing anything publicly, he made hundreds of beats and countless drafts of songs, often scrapping early work in pursuit of something better. While he hasn’t stepped into live performances yet, his dedication behind the scenes shows in the quality and intention of everything he creates.
Founding Overdue Recordings became the next step in bringing his vision to life. The label reflects his mindset: growth takes time, and the best work comes from putting in the hours when no one is watching.
Quiet confidence defines him — not mystery for the sake of image, but a natural focus on the art first. No rush. No shortcuts. Just a steady rise built on real passion and real work.
