Although less frequently requested, the following might be considered, also.
- A non-performance personal appearance.
An example would be to hire a celebrity to attend a private or corporate party as simply a (non-performing) guest to mingle with other guests, or to hire the celebrity to do a meet-and-greet at your party.
- A virtual performance.
A virtual performance is a live or recorded show—such as a concert, play, dance, comedy act, or other artistic presentation—that is broadcast or streamed online instead of being performed in front of a physical audience. Artists perform live from a studio, venue, or even their homes and stream the show on platforms like YouTube, Twitch, or Instagram Live. Essentially, a virtual performance brings entertainment to audiences through the internet rather than in-person venues.

Hire Kevin Abstract
former member of Brockhampton
Kevin Abstract is an American rapper, singer, songwriter, producer, and creative director best known as the founder and frontman of the influential hip-hop collective BROCKHAMPTON. Known for his emotional vulnerability, genre-blending sound, and bold visual identity, Kevin Abstract has become one of the most distinctive voices in modern alternative hip-hop.
Early Life and Creative Beginnings
Born Clifford Ian Simpson on July 16, 1996, in Corpus Christi, Texas, Kevin Abstract grew up in a military family, moving frequently during his childhood. This sense of displacement deeply influenced his artistic identity and lyrical themes. He later settled in Houston, where he began making music independently, drawing inspiration from artists like Kanye West, Kid Cudi, and Frank Ocean.
Kevin adopted the stage name Kevin Abstract as a reflection of his desire to blur boundaries between genres, identities, and artistic mediums.
Solo Career and Breakthrough Projects
Kevin Abstract first gained attention with his early solo projects, including MTV1987 (2014) and American Boyfriend: A Suburban Love Story (2016). American Boyfriend was particularly praised for its candid exploration of sexuality, loneliness, and self-identity, marking Kevin as one of the first openly gay artists in mainstream hip-hop to center queer experiences in his music.
The album blended hip-hop, indie rock, and R&B influences, setting the foundation for his signature sound and emotional storytelling.
Formation and Success of BROCKHAMPTON
In 2015, Kevin Abstract founded BROCKHAMPTON, a self-described “boy band” that included rappers, singers, producers, designers, and visual artists. Under Kevin’s leadership, the group released the highly successful Saturation trilogy in 2017, which propelled them to international recognition.
BROCKHAMPTON became known for their raw lyricism, experimental production, and inclusive representation, reshaping the idea of what a hip-hop group could be. Albums like iridescence, GINGER, and ROADRUNNER: NEW LIGHT, NEW MACHINE debuted at the top of the Billboard charts and solidified the group’s cultural impact.
Artistry, Themes, and Musical Style
Kevin Abstract’s music is defined by emotional honesty and genre fluidity. His lyrics often explore themes of identity, fame, mental health, queerness, faith, and personal growth. Musically, he blends hip-hop with alternative pop, indie rock, R&B, and electronic elements.
Beyond music, Kevin is known for his strong visual aesthetic, often serving as a creative director for album artwork, music videos, and stage design. His work emphasizes authenticity, vulnerability, and creative freedom.
Post-BROCKHAMPTON Era and Continued Evolution
After BROCKHAMPTON announced their indefinite hiatus in 2022, Kevin Abstract shifted focus back to his solo career and creative ventures. He released new music that reflected a more introspective and experimental direction, continuing to evolve as an artist outside of the collective framework.
Kevin has also expanded into fashion, film concepts, and multimedia storytelling, positioning himself as a multidimensional creative rather than just a recording artist.
Cultural Impact and Legacy
Kevin Abstract is widely recognized as a trailblazer in modern hip-hop for his openness about sexuality and emotional vulnerability. His influence extends beyond music, inspiring a new generation of artists to embrace authenticity, diversity, and creative collaboration.
Through his solo work and leadership of BROCKHAMPTON, Kevin Abstract has helped redefine the boundaries of hip-hop, proving that personal truth and artistic risk can resonate on a global scale.
