    Artist description
    Not your average everyday R&B group. Laid back, to the point sounds from the summer cookout in your cousin's backyard. "Will" and "CP" are just singing. Nothing more nothing less. No state of the art effects, no glossy image, no money to wine and dine. Just music. They like to call it "Underground R&B". Their highly anticipated, freshman album "Hopin' It Pays" rolls. It consist of 17 different situations that will put you in an attentive, mild, head-bobbing mood.

    Artist History
    They moved over 1000 units in the state of Kentucky strictly by word of mouth and listener anticipation. “We make music because we love to. Record deal or not, we’ll continue to write and record for our on self-fulfillment. “ But what Will and CP our beginning to realize is that they have created a crop of faithful listeners that want to hear more. They came to together in late 1998 in Bowling Green, Kentucky. CP was in the process of beginning his last semester at W. Kentucky University. Will was working as a home-nursing assistant. It was a mutual friend that introduced them to one another. They began to sing for 4 hours straight during their initial meeting. They both thought it was too good to be true. “How can two total strangers meet and be so much in tune and on the same accord musically“ , Will states. It blew their mind and they have been singing and vibing together every since. Their first song was recorded at Tree House Studios in Bowling Green. This was same studio that Atlantic Record’s rap group, “Nappy Roots”, called home. Nappy Roots gave them the opportunity to record there for free as long as they helped with background vocals on their projects. From this start many shows, weddings, coffeehouses, and radio stations have been blessed with Klientel’s distinct sound. No doubt about it… style, image, and appearance are all attributes of successful music icons. But the song is what’s essential. These boys can sing!

    Press Reviews
    Listen.com:KLIENTEL retain their R&B focus, even when they shift from the earthier end of the spectrum to the more radio-ready sort. Vocals blend in these songs of love and humor. Kali H.
