Before his untimely death, online sources had it that King Von was 5 feet 9 inches (1.75 m or 175 centimeters). This meant that he was was average in height, going by the 2018 report released by the the national public health agency of the United States known as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), which has it that the average height of American men aged 20 years and above is 5 feet 9 inches.
Talking about the late rapper’s body weight, he balances his height on a body mass of 72 kg; this is commensurate to 159lbs. The above-listed combination gave the rapper an all-male athletic look and even though sources never indicated whether he had abs or not, his physical appearance suggests that he did.
From what is obvious, King Von achieved his near-perfect physic by following a rigorous workout routine. However, information about the kinds of exercises he engaged in are unavailable just as details of his other body statistics such as his waist, hip, and shoulder. But going by the little information we gathered from sources, the Afro-American is true to type with black skin and black eyes.
King’s natural hair is equally black but he loved to tint it from time to time. He always wore it in dreadlocks and when he did not tint everything blond, he would tint only a few locks while leaving others natural. The hues he usually loved to apply were a lighter brown shade and two dark brown hues.
When twisted in locks, the deceased musician usually went for a shoulder-length hairdo, usually with a black cap on top; this remained his signature look until death. Even after his demise, fans who paid tribute by tattooing him on their bodies never forgot to include the cap.

Why Did Fans Believe That King Von’s Height Was Actually Taller Than What Reports Said?
As earlier mentioned, ensuing reports after the death of the American rapper pegged his height at 5 feet 9 inches or 175 cm, but that did not sit well with fans who think otherwise.
One group of his fans argued that the late musician’s height is far above what the news sources are saying. They substantiated their claims with evidence on Reddit where they pointed out an image of King and Lil Durk standing together.
Recall that Lil Durk is said to be of the same height as the late rapper, but King was standing way taller in the picture. According to this group, the reported height doesn’t do justice to the deceased musician as they believe he was above six feet at the time he died. Some even took his height to as much as 6 feet 3 inches.
We must also acknowledge other dissenting voices that begged to differ with the claims on Reddit, these voices are even doubting whether the deceased rapper was even up to the purported 5 feet 9 inches before his death. Only very few agree with the report of King’s height but from what is obvious, it is already too late to go rectify any perceived mistakes as the rapper is already dead and long buried.
The only certainty about the late music hit maker’s physical attribute was that his buff and athletic physique did not just have an excellent measurement, but it equally radiated masculinity from each and every pore of his body.

While he was still alive, the young American rapper was not different from musicians of his ilk. Many of these singers go to town with inking tattoos and King did exactly the same. At the time of his demise, he recorded 20 different tattoos on his body and according to reports, each and every tattoo had a special meaning.
There is an “LA’ tattoo inscribed on his left upper arm, an “OTF” tattoo meaning “Only the Family” (Lil Durk’s group) was evident on his right hand, and on both sides of his front shoulders, you will see the number “64”; there is six on the right and four on the left. The “64” tattoo is a tribute to “64 of ‘O Block’ where he was born in South Side Chicago.
Other inscriptions on King Von’s body included, a “LOOSE LIPS SINK SHIPS” tattoo on the his right forearm, an ‘O Block’ tattoo (his birthplace) adorns the middle of his chest, and an Anchor’ tattoo displayed on his right forearm.
