About John Keenan
John Keenan is a self-produced hip hop artist, writer, and cultural dissident from Great Bend, Kansas. With over 20 years of experience and zero shortcuts taken, Keenan has built a deep catalog of truth-telling music outside the industry machine. Every beat, lyric, and mix is done by him — no features, no gimmicks, just raw stories and bold sound.
His latest album, Wreckage of the Past, is a 23-song double album dropping September 7. Crafted over five years and recorded in just three days, it fuses hip hop, rock, soul, and protest music into one brutally honest statement about heartbreak, addiction, masculinity, and cultural collapse.
More than just an artist, Keenan is the founder of Full Circle Muzik and Half Square Films, two DIY media platforms created to push back against an industry obsessed with image and imitation. His work is rooted in spiritual struggle, long-term discipline, and deep love — for the country, the culture, and the craft.
If you're tired of mainstream noise, you're in the right place. This is hip hop for the forgotten. Music for the misfits. And stories for those still searching for something real.
