What is fka?

FKA stands for "formerly known as" and is often used in the music industry when an artist changes their stage name. This could be due to a desire for a new image, a legal issue, or simply a personal choice. Some well-known examples of artists who have changed their names include Snoop Dogg (formerly known as Snoop Lion), Prince (formerly known as The Artist Formerly Known as Prince), and Diddy (formerly known as Puff Daddy). The use of the term "FKA" helps fans and the media connect the new name with the artist's previous identity.
