Ken Carson is doing big things with ‘Overseas’ and Xbox fire

With fire music brewing as proof with the new ‘Overseas’ drop, it’s only right Ken celebrates his born day this week with a massive Xbox Series X partnership.

To mark the occasion, the visionary artist shared his electrifying new single, “overseas.” As he spins tales about European tours, Ken also reflects on what he might tell his younger self. The trailblazing rising artist wrote the track with producers Lucian, Lukrative, Nick Spiders and Esko. Listen HERE. Out today via OPIUM/Interscope Records, “overseas” is Carson’s first release since last fall’s A Great Chaos, which was hailed as one of the best albums of the year.

Carson, known as X Man to his fans, has teamed up with Xbox to create the custom Ken Carson Xbox Seriex X. In addition, there will be 50 custom Xbox controllers and 5 custom Xbox Series X consoles.
