Born and raised in the heart of London, Lavish started Rapping at the age of 15. The name symbolized his sense of class and style both on the outside and inside. It represents the mind state of the majority of the lower/middle class ..We all want to live Lavish..
Lavish has a deep rooted passion for morality, yet he realises the issues that people face in life. His lyrics address the risks people are prepared to take to live lavishly. He displays detailed street knowledge still he stresses the need for a change in the way we live.
Inspired by the likes of Nas, 2 Pac and Bob Marley, Lavish is able to penetrate the mind of his listeners, in so doing, his deeper message will inevitably touch his audience..s heart. Don..t get it twisted though, he may be a conscious rapper, but he has his fair share of club bangers. Lavish has a very distinctive tone and with his dynamic flow, intellectual word play and use of poetic techniques, he captures a variety of audiences.
Lavish understands that to break through, he must work with artists from the streets to create demand for product on road. He has collaborated with the likes of Def 1, Dexplicit, L.Man and J2K.
He knows that if he is able to unite the streets, the industry will realise how many units are being sold and will be forced to sign British underground artists.
He is currently working on his new mix tape and has a promo THE REBIRTH OUT NOW!!
With artists like Lavish around the future of British Rap is bright.
