HIPHOP LIVES HERE

Big ups and thanks to those of you that helped put this together!

We got a tour and an exhibition coming up called HIP HOP LIVES HERE. Watch this space for more info...

 

 

I rap, DJ, beatbox, produce, direct my own music videos and am partner in a televison production company. I also have my own clothing label, "Overstayer clothing". I am now an independent artist, and I'm now onto my 4th album.

My 3rd album has been released here in n.z and in Australia Its Called "DOMINANT SPECIES". My two earlier albums are called "SAVAGE THOUGHTS" and "2ND ROUND TESTAMENT".I was the songwriter of the year in 1999 receiving the Silver Scroll Awards, the first hip-hop artist to receive an award of this kind in my country.

I emcee, over hip-hop mostly but i also emcee over drum'n'bass, jungle, and ragga and toast over anything too. I sing also, I create most of my tracks choosing to compose tracks and not to sample. I play drums, keys, guitar, bass, and scratch.
