Rapper DJX Kbrokaysen makes a return on collaboration song "Pop Out" with Santa Clarita rapper, KingSpook, on SoundCloud

The Santa Clarita collaboration brings DJX Kbrokaysen back after a long break between songs while introducing a new rapper from the Santa Clarita Valley.

DJX Kbrokaysen returning to music is already a reason to pay attention, but “Pop Out” comes with another surprise as he introduces a new Santa Clarita artist into the picture. After a long stretch without a song release, DJX Kbrokaysen has teamed up with KingSpook for a collaboration that marks two milestones at once. It’s DJX Kbrokaysen’s return to releasing music and KingSpook’s first-ever song—a meeting between someone with a creative history in the valley and someone just beginning to build his own.

“Pop Out” brings DJX Kbrokaysen and KingSpook together at a turning point for both artists. For DJX, the collaboration represents a return to releasing music and for KingSpook, also known as Spooky, it marks his introduction as a rapper.

Released on SoundCloud on May 9, 2026, “Pop Out” credits Manu Productions for its production. Behind the release is a connection to Santa Clarita, California, the hometown both artists bring into this collaboration.

For listeners familiar with DJX Kbrokaysen’s earlier music, the release brings an unexpected chapter to a story that has stretched beyond rap. Known offstage as Kaysen Markoff, the Santa Clarita musician, filmmaker, and photographer began making music with his cousins in 2017. His projects, including the album Saugus, became part of a broader creative background that also includes films and online content. That history gives his return some weight: “Pop Out” reconnects him with a form of expression that has been part of his life for years.

The excitement lies in hearing from him again after that gap. A return like this opens up questions about what might follow, especially when it arrives through a collaboration with a new voice. “Pop Out” gives people who remember DJX Kbrokaysen’s previous releases something fresh to check out, while creating an introduction for listeners who may be discovering him now.

Alongside DJX is Nathan Chavez, known as KingSpook or Spooky, a newcomer from Santa Clarita who was inspired to start rapping to represent his city alongside DJX Kbrokaysen. “Pop Out” is his first release, making it the beginning of his public journey as a recording artist. There’s an excitement to that first step: a name that local listeners may know personally is now attached to a song, and an idea about making music has become a release people can play.

For SCV, that makes the collaboration especially interesting. KingSpook is entering music with a connection to his hometown at the center of his motivation. His debut gives local listeners a chance to discover another artist from their own community and follow his progress from the first song onward.

“Pop Out” captures those two moments in its title. DJX Kbrokaysen is stepping back into music after time away, while KingSpook is making his entrance beside him. The release symbolizes that shared arrival, with each artist approaching it from a different point in his career.

That’s what makes this collaboration cool to see unfold. DJX Kbrokaysen’s return would have been a moment on its own. Pairing it with KingSpook’s debut gives the release another dimension—and gives Santa Clarita listeners two reasons to be curious about what comes next.
