KING FLEXXA

Catch King Flexxa LIVE on DTLR Radio every Saturday from 1-4pm ET!

Ke’Shawn Forbes, culturally known as “The Massive Host” King Flexxa, is an Emmy Award–winning media personality, cultural curator, and 20-year architect of elevated energy and unforgettable experiences.

A native of Brooklyn, New York, with proud Jamaican heritage, Flexxa has built a legacy rooted in rhythm, representation, and commanding the room.

At just 17 years old, Forbes made the intentional decision to pursue higher education at an HBCU, enrolling at Morgan State University in Baltimore, Maryland. During his tenure, he served in multiple leadership roles — most notably within the Student Government Association, where he was elected Mr. Morgan State University, widely regarded as the King of the campus. It was in this role that he realized he was representing something far greater than himself — culture, excellence, and community.

While at Morgan, Flexxa discovered his gift for the microphone — a weapon of mass entertainment that would become his signature instrument. What began on campus stages evolved into a national presence spanning elite nightlife venues, concerts, festivals, corporate experiences, wedding receptions, and curated R&B events.

Over the past two decades, he has consistently made impactful deposits into nightlife and entertainment culture — blending nostalgia, tempo, and elevated host energy into moments that feel both timeless and electric.

After earning his Bachelor’s degree in Social Work in 2009, Forbes completed his Master’s degree in the same field in just one academic year. Soon after, he launched his digital platform, Flexx Rated TV, investing in his brand by traveling to major cities and events to secure exclusive interviews with high-profile celebrities while producing original, culture-driven content.

Flexxa’s media presence expanded nationally when he became a television host for the Emmy Award–winning show Spade A Spade on HBCU GO TV, in addition to serving as an official host for national events with PepsiCo.

In true entrepreneurial fashion, he is also the Owner and CEO of Flexx Frames by KF, a growing eyewear brand that reflects his bold eye for style and fashion-forward expression.

Every Saturday from 1–4 PM ET, Flexxa connects with audiences nationwide as the host of “The Flexx Rated Radio Show” on DTLR Radio, broadcasting live in over 400 DTLR stores across the country and streaming worldwide via the DTLR Radio app.

By merging his educational foundation in social work with an expansive entertainment career, King Flexxa doesn’t just host events — he curates experiences. Twenty years deep, The Massive Host remains cemented in culture, commanding microphones, elevating rooms, and ensuring every moment lands with royal energy.
