Hans Oskar "Kihlen" Linnros, born 15th of august 1983 in Sundbyberg, Stockholms län, is a swedish singer, songwriter, music producer, pop/soul artist and rapper.
Linnros met Daniel Adams-Ray in 1999 and the two started the hip-hop duo Snook, which released two full-length albums, received a P3 gold statuette for "Song of the Year" and was named Best Swedish Act at the MTV European Music Awards. Snook split in 2007, and in the same year, Linnros continued as producer and composer for, among others, Petter. He also founded the hip-hop group Maskinen, which he later left due to lack of time.
In 2010, Oskar Linnros scrapped the former alias Kihlen and made his solo debut with the singles "Ack, Sundbyberg" and "Från och med du". The songs were also Linnro's first effort as a singer. The two songs are part of Linnro's self-produced solo album, "Vilja bli", which was released on June 9 of the same year on Universal Music. "Vilja bli" sold platinum, and on September 1, 2010, Linnros won two Rockbjörnar in the categories Swedish Song of the Year and "Breakthrough of the Year".
Linnros has also produced Veronica Maggio's second album "Och vinnaren är" and they dated for a while. They met during their collaboration with Petter and the remix of Snooks song ”Inga problem”.
