KingAP’s  debut album ‘2K16’ which released on 24th August, 2021 under GrooveNexus Records has eight songs with each of the songs has its own essence and all the songs are connected in a beautiful storyline. The album portrays an incomplete love story of a boy and a girl, where the boy wants to confess his feelings for the girl but is unable to do so due to some misunderstandings and they get further apart. Each of the song depicts different phases of unrequited love and the pain that comes with it.

The album ‘2k16’ by KingAP, features three artists, Rohit Pandey, Harshita Baranwal and Neha Rawat along with a lyricist Abhimanyu, who has co-written three songs, Ek shaam, Naseeb and Khayal along with KingAP himself. All the songs in the album are produced by Traxeon himself. 

The album contains four romantic numbers Guzarish, Insane, Naseeb and Ek shaam along with Kyu Iss Tarah, Khayal, Yaadein Teri and Laut Aao which are sad numbers. 

“2k16 album, a collection of heart-touching compositions, has been launched for the music lovers and I personally liked “Guzarish” and “Ek shaam” the most. The artist has done justice to the sentiments conveyed through the songs and it is indeed praiseworthy. We are on the lookout for new talents and we would like to extend our support to the independent artists who aspire to expand their reach through various digital platforms. We plan to release, curate and promote 100+ songs by the year 2022. We are in advance conversations with a lot of D2C brands which are willing to sponsor and support the upcoming talent and in turn get promotions through Brand endorsement” says Himanshu Mishra, Founder of GrooveNexus.”
