This page is about the utaite KK, not to be confused with the utaite Keke.
A sample of a cover song by Ken Kamikita
"Velvet Tread", composed by Heavenz

KK is an utaite known for his uniquely resonant, sonorous singing voice and distinct vibrato. Despite uploading since mid 2009, he has only recently begun to gain popularity, thanks to the consistently high quality of his uploads. His voice is best suited to folk or indie rock type music, though he can sing in other genres.

He is good friends with producers Harry, whoo, and yukkedoluce, who have all mixed one or more of his covers and composed original songs with him as the lead vocalist, as well as other utaite such as Chomaiyo and 31, both of whom he has collaborated with. He usually mixes and encodes his own songs and videos, and occasionally mixes for other utaite.

His normal speaking voice is notably much higher and more soft than his singing voice would suggest, which often surprises first-time listeners in his namahousous. This, combined with his often soft-spoken nature, often leads his fans to describe him as being "cute" rather than "cool".[3]

His first cover was "Sayonara Astronauts"Nv, which has since been deleted; his first hit cover was "Starduster"Nv, which has since been set to private viewing only along with many of his early covers. His most popular hit solo cover is "Sore ga Anata no Shiawase Toshitemo"Nv, which currently has 1M views and 22K mylists as of October 2016.

On June 9th, 2015, KK officially debuted as his real name, "Ken Kamikita", under the music label, Victor Entertainment. He released the song "Mist" off his first album, "SCOOP" set to release September 9th, 2015.[4]
