HennaCee aka Mr Henna... Emcee - Producer. Been in this game since day one learning my trade and putting my self about, growing up on a diet of pure music, from listening to Tony Williams on a Sunday afternoon, then switching channels to catch Rodigan. Through my skool years I got into SKA, and went through the burgundy stay press trouser phase. Anyway to cut a long piece short, I heard 4 tunes that influenced me big time. BREAKDANCE ELECTRIC BOOGIE by the WEST STREET MOB PLANET ROCK (don’t need to tell you who that was by) THE SMURF by TYRONE BRONZON ET BOOGIE (ain’t got a clue who by, so if you know, let me know) at that time I started to try my hand at Body Poppin and B’Boyin, but soon realized just how wack I was, then, like a lot of people I managed to get to see ELECTRO ROCK (Hip Hop at the Hippodrome) and BEAT STREET, and after seeing the artwork on those, and then also having the pleasure of seeing WILD STYLE, I became hooked on graffiti, and along with boy my Shoota, soon became known in my native High Wycombe. I was introduced to my first STEREO at the age of around 12 and began homing in to shows like MIKE ALLENS TROOPS ON MANOUVERS to get all the latest beats. Influenced by the likes of Demon Boyz, London Posse , Outlaw Posse, Cash Crew, Mc Mello etc…I decided to try my hand at writing with the pen and putting the pen to paper when I was 13 I soon realised I was quite good, therefore I started to practice more often with both written and freestyles and soon developed my own style. My biggest achievement/ moment of satisfaction in this game has got to be sitting at home listening to Kiss 100 fm a few years back and hearing one of my tunes on the Wednesday night show which was then hosted by Max LX & Dave VJ aka the Hardrock Soul Movement…still remember Dave VJ at the end of the tune saying “Yeah … Original Dimension…Just bounce..” .. Anyway got lots of new material in the pipeline (if you like Drum & Bass check my other page www.myspace.com/dueltwo ) so keep tuned and wait for the updates. Peace Mr Henna
