DJ Phoney with International Criminal

About Me


The "Dead Fingers Talk"-album will be out soon
International Criminal and DJ Phoneys vision of sound is about fresh and unconventional hiphop.
The deepness of DJ Phoneys instrumentals and the fine linguistic creations of International Criminal are a pleasure for the ears of those who are tired of listening to one-dimensional cliches.
International Criminal is a tough canadian MC with a characteristic style and unique voice. His lyrical output is attached to life and it..s stories rather than repeating cliches. He..s living in Madrid right now, where he works with the hiphop-crew Très Nacionès.
DJ Phoneys beats are often described as ‘tight’ and ‘deep’.
In the past years Phoney worked with EmCee Lynx, Eduardo, Ernest Drake, Cheese, Paul Smith, Stephanie Standerwick, S.O.N. of Nun, Rich and Mr. Kato.
What unites these two visionaries is a love for powerful and soulful music, a rebel attitude and an interest to push boundaries and break with standards.
This year their album “Dead Fingers Talk” is gonna be released as vinyl-lp on Phoney Tapes (due to our label opening a recordstore in cologne the album-release will be a bit delayed).
