Briefly

Ka lived a life of service - to his city, to his community, and to his music. As a 20-year veteran of the New York City Fire Department, he put his life on the line to protect his fellow citizens.
KA is one of the greatest lyricists ever.... And without rhyming, being a fireman is one of the greatest jobs we as people respect. Im heartbroken. Condolences to the family.
Ka rose to the rank of FDNY captain and was a first responder on September 11, 2001 during the attacks on the World Trade Center. He leaves an extraordinary legacy as a recording artist, including eleven remarkable self-released solo albums.
