HMK Entertainment (HMK Ent.) is an underground Hip Hop talent, engineering, recording, & production company. HMK Ent. was founded in 2000 by Chris “KID” Robinson. With a desire to be in control of his music and career, KID began producing albums and expressing his entrepreneurial spirit within the St. Louis underground Hip Hop scene.
Having a life-long ear for music as a classically trained musician, a B.A. in Audio Production from Webster University, and the practical experience under an apprenticeship of his Uncle Steve (Big Steve Jones of Death Row Records, Loud Records, Interscope Records and MCA Records) throughout his youth, he felt confident in developing HMK Ent. as an avenue for himself as well as others to express themselves musically. KID has received engineering credit on commercially released albums and worked with several national recording artists such as Ron Isley, David Banner, Lil Scrappy, Jibbs, Murphy Lee, Huey, Ebony Eyez, etc.
The company has groomed and developed many independent artists. When you partner with HMK Ent., you can rest assured knowing we have an appreciation for the craft of hip hop and working collaboratively to realize a vision. We also have a vast knowledge of the latest production technology and years of experience that have provided us with connections in the industry to support you and your musical goals.
Our staff includes both former and current recording artists - we aren’t new to this and we keep growing and evolving! We know the grind of an artist and the hunger that drives you to get your work into the hands of as many people as possible. Those experiences have lead us to a level of expertise and passion that you can’t find anywhere else. If we touch it, it will be 1st rate.
