Sajeev a.k.a Dizzy D

About Me

Born on the 20th of june 1983 in colombo Sri Lanka. You could say from the early ages he was heavily influenced by rap/hip hop music it was obvious it would rub off on him but no one imagined he'd hav a knack for this gerne of music because most of his family members played or followed clasical music or played a classical instrument. In every family there is a black sheep and in his he was it and in a good way.During his early child hood bue to the ethnic conflict he had to leave the country, not settelin down in any paticular place moved from new york,to England and then to india and at last after a good 13yrs of globe trotting came back to the motherland by then all his travelling and exposure to different cultures and its music did him good because you can still see traces of them in his lyrics and his production style.He first started off by writing poetry that was his first stepping stones to start writing lyrics,then folks at home saw that there was this occational burst of original lyrics spat when another song was bein played. By then he had started writin lyrics of his own to popular artists songs, though all this was happenin he neva ventured outside wit this beyond the walls of his house.When he was 16 he met up wit a friend who another friend introuced to him called shafraz, the two got together n started rhyming and puttin songs together over instrumentals. They performed at talent searches an caught a few peoples eyes,and aparently due to their higher education shelved the whole rapping thing for a good 3 to 4 years, but sajeev like u know a crack addict will always be commin for another hit kept writin. After the final exams sajeev knew he had smethin unique n smethin to say outta personal experience stepped into the Sri Lankan music scene wit a serious attitude and a will to suceed.His first track was produced by Gimantha Aponso who at that time was someone no one knew later once the track was done n handed over to the radiostations it was turned down siting that it was not puympin enough,not givin in he kept working all the while gimantha givin him sme hot beats to rhyme on. Still not gettin heat from the crowd outta desperation he picked out his first track put a spin on it pumped the beat up which was done by gimantha revoiced it and handed it again this time the radio DJ's did accept it even tho it did not stir the crowd enough that was enough for him to put his foot in the doorway.That same year in 2006 Gimantha and Sajeev started out Crack House Productions an indie label wit jus the two of them and put up a small studio at sajeevs upstairs which was vacant. Maybe the change did them good they started workin on a few tracks. Thinking to do smething different they did the remake to an old 1970's tamil song called Aadaludan padal which reali put them on track to get their carriers goin. Todatethat is 1 of the best bance numbers.Later wit people recognizing their talent they started producing tracks for renowned artists like Shiraz a.k.a Rudebwoy, Tisha of V3 girls fame, the lated did 5 track wit them n all 5 were picked up by universal india to be played on the indian channel V music channel. Shiraz one of the pioneers in hip hop music in Sri Lanka and a renowned reggae artist did a lot of tracks which most hav been shelved for his album had a couple of hits with tracks produced by them.Sajeev is still with Gimantah they seem like a good team complimenting eachother n sajeev going on to learn production skills from gimantha and now produces beats for himself and others. He produced teh beat for 1 of tisha's hit singles. Gimantha is in the process of releasing his debut cd, and by August you all can await sajeev's debut album titeled "Life Without The F".So keep visiting this page because new material he's workin on will be added up here.OnE
