Kosha Dillz is the surprise that keeps on surprising. Born Rami Matan Even-Esh to Israeli parents in New Jersey, the former NCAA D1 Wrestler turned ex-convict drug addict to 20 years+ sober advocate, started out as a guest freestyler on sets with Matisyahu in the early 2010s after winning a Hot 97 Rap Battle. Later on, he moved to LA, where he landed his music in the #1 rated Super Bowl commercial in 2012 with Bud Light. The Early 2010's became a growing time for Kosha, landing shows with everyone from Portugal the Man and Matisyahu to Rza of Wu Tang Clan and the late Gangsta Boo, whom he originally connected with Killer Mike for her appearances on Run The Jewels albums. Using freestyle rap to freestyle song concepts to diversify his collaborative curations, he began curating the first OY VEY! showcases at SXSW, leading him to work with various overseas festivals including landing a tour in Holland with the legendary Snoop Dogg and a 2016 billboard charting album featuring Matisyahu, NIna Dioz and more.
When asked how he would get opportunities in interviews, he simply responded with "I just showed up. It's way better than always being invited." This means becoming a NBA2k playable character to rapping in the BET Cypher and even performing 2 guest songs at Coachella's Mojave stage in 2019. Fast forward to post pandemic 2020 life and Kosha created his "We outside till we inside" mantra, after rapping outside a Knicks game with Fat Joe in a Nor'easter rainstorm. The viral clip landed millions of views on instagram and Worldstar, which led him to nailing an audition with Nick Cannon for MTV / VH1's Wild 'N Out. From 2022, he became a cast member for season 18-20 and more episodes in an upcoming season 21.
One year after rapping outside of Madison Square Garden and the Barclays Center, Kosha's motto came true, performing inside both iconic venues at sold out Wild 'N Out Live tours. The new journey in his post 40 career has led to a new comedy journey after sharing the stage with legends like Matt Rife, Katt Williams and Godfrey, developing a new hybrid of comedy and music, and a new show that has never been seen before.
Kosha's recent year has been filled with trauma from the war back home in Israel. In response, he began creating music alongside "man on the street" interviews that reflected the voice of many of his peers and supporters, garnering him over 100k followers and 40 million+ views on social media . By combining his "Bring The Family Home" song with his street interview series on college campuses and NYC , he created an anthem throughout thec ommunity of those who felt similar. His frequent attempts to bring opposing sides of the conflict together is something that has garnered him press in Daily Mail, Billboard, NY Postand TMZ. 2025 promises to be a big year for him as he will release the "Bring the Family Home" LP alongside his "Bring the family Home" documentary, which followed him for the past year during his rising popularity while touring encampments and protests over the pastspring semester
