Artist profile
King Los
Carlos Coleman, better known by his stage name King Los or simply Los, is an American rapper and songwriter from Baltimore, Maryland.
Carlos Coleman—King Los—is one of those names where rappers’ rappers nod first. Baltimore raised him; the industry tested him; Bad Boy saw the genius in the craft.
He moved in and out of the label chapter like a lot of real lyricists do—signings, departures, re-signings—because when you’re that sharp, the business gets complicated even when the bars aren’t.
When God, Money, War dropped on RCA, Diddy served as executive producer on that project—because the co-sign reflected clear conviction: Los is special. Concepts, cadence, conviction.
If you want pure penmanship in the Bad Boy extended universe, King Los is required listening.
