About Me

Back in 1989 I had my first active contact with the HipHop culture through skateboarding and friends who did graffiti back then. At the same time I used to play Bass-Guitar in various bands, from Jazz to Psychobilly to Punk and Metal. In the early 90ies I started to drop my own lyrics and soon had the status of a wellknown freestyle MC over here in Germany. In 1997 I started deejaying and organizing smaller HipHop events and clubnights. Since 2002 I'm also the head of BOOGIEBLAST.net a worldwide network for booking, promotion and support.
It's 2008 now and I'm still rappin' and deejaying and work on various projects. Today I don't care about musicgenres or categories anymore. Limitation sucks!
Since I'm rockin' a lot of Skateboard- and Snowboardevents like contests and video preview parties the last few years I'm mostly playing a wide selection of HipHop Classics, UK Grime, Nu Rave, Indierock, Electro and a lot of Bastardpop Bootlegs and Mashups in my DJ-sets.
When I'm not doing music I can be found skateboarding, snowboarding, filming or taking pictures somewhere.
