::UNDERSTAND THE KID::
The newest addition to Bay Area based Souled Out Underground, Mandeep Sethi is a 19 year old emcee from Los Angeles, now hailing, living in and going to skool in San Francisco (San Francisco STATE). Experiencing, viewing, and analyzing the systematically perpetuated violence and oppression against minorities and immigrants in the United States, hip hop serves as a vehicle of dissent, retaliation, radicalization, and resistance. Growing up with a turban in the US, especially after 9/11, was a humbling experience, teaching a lot about the way human beings truly act towards each other. It is a sad reality that we must confront, but race, class, and gender issues are pushed to the backburner of society's agenda, and must be addressed. The primary project on the agenda for 2008 is a mixtape/album with production from DJ Descry, Deacon LF, and Joe Dukes of Souled Out Underground. He is also a member of the San Francisco based funk jazz dub Punjabi band "BlackMahal", with world renowned dhol player Ustad LaL Singh Batti. Otbher projects in the works are a collaboration with Organik Artillery crew member Janey Frowens, entitled "A Journey Into Alice Coltrane Land", as well as a mixtape entitled "When Comic Books and Hip-Hop Collide" where every track is written and rhymed from the point of view of different comic book characters....
Mandeep is an alien from another planet but carries around a boombox.
