| What the
dictionary says about me: |
| Beatnik:
‘a young person in the late 1950s who rebelled against conventional
attitudes and styles of dress.’ |
| |
To
me this definition means remaining at the core of a true hip hop mentality
which endorses originality to be a desirable quality. Being different
seems to be a taboo concept these days, but I shall not go further
into this point before I get onto a ‘State of Hip Hop’
rant! Let’s
just say that I’m trying to do my bit as opposed to sitting
back and accepting it. That is my future goal, but as the saying goes,
‘to know where you’re going you need to know where you’ve
been’, so let me give you a brief history of myself.

| My journey
of sonic expression began in 2002. Listening to the likes of Madlib
and Dj Premier inspired me to make a contribution to the culture I loved
too much (and still do)! Through times of set up upgrades, messed up
girlfriends and studying in a different city, my current debut release
of Count 2:10 was
concocted, a collaborative effort with label mate Mr Brown. I say mate
because that was the basis on which I first met him a couple of years
ago, and we both happened to have a shared passion. Through mutual respect
for each others musical ability, the instrumental EP was born. |

| Hip Hop
music may be my foundation, but my creative juices flow in many different
directions so expect multiple projects to come from me with varied twists
and turns. In the words of Raekwon on the Wu-tang forever album…’Keep
ya third eye open.’ |
