KlueWorld

Independent/Black KAB

Clarence “KlueWorld” Lewis IV is a San Francisco native whose love for music began behind a drum kit at just two years old. Known as a drummer, musical director, arranger, and all-around creative, Klue’s musical roots were shaped by church, jazz fusion, and the influence of his father, whose passion and support laid the foundation for Klue’s artistry.

Early in his professional career, Klue became recognized as the “shirtless drummer,” touring and performing with artists such as TMills, Mod Sun, Blackbear, Stacy Barthe, and Elliott Yamin. His live and studio résumé later expanded to include performances with Big Sean, Chante Moore, MGK, G-Eazy, Cordae, Mali Music, Durand Bernarr, Trippie Redd, and many more.

Drawing inspiration from legendary drummers like Questlove, Chris “Daddy” Dave, and Papa Jo Jones, Klue’s playing is driven by a mission to make people feel again—especially to make people dance. His ultimate goal is to create and share music that brings light, joy, and energy to everyone who experiences it.

  • WHAT INSPIRES YOU?

    What inspires me is the next generation and opportunity to create meaningful moments and memories through music and artistry. Music, as a universal language, has the power to connect and heal people across the globe. To be part of that universal language, to touch lives and plant seeds of inspiration in complete strangers, is an incredible privilege and a profound source of inspiration for me.

  • WORDS OF WISDOM FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF DRUMMERS

    If were to give words or wisdom I'd say Live life with no regrets means embracing every opportunity and recognizing the true value of the gifts we’re given. These opportunities aren’t just for our own selfish experiences, but for the greater community and the world around us. What we do brings life, joy, and healing to those who may not have the same abilities, and it’s our responsibility to share that gift with the world. Never let anyone or anything stop you because what is inside of the next generation is needed and necessary for the progression evolution. You hold the keys to the next door generation that comes after you. Always keep in mind that a true leaders not only leads but teaches others how to serve with integrity.
