A poet, songwriter, and artist, above all else A.D. Skolar
is a Bronx born MC. Since 1992 A.D. has been finding his
way through an ever changing hip-hop culture. As the music
shifted from the grit of b-boys and street poets and into a
pop-culture commodity, A.D Skolar has held strong to its roots.
Picking up where his predecessors left off (KRS, Black Moon);
Skolar brings back a time in music long before it was exploited
by mass marketing. With lyrics reminiscent of early Roots,
Native Tongues, and KRS, A.D.’s sound is a testament to the
early MCs who used their voice to spark awareness and change.
Quick metaphors and gritty images are infused with insightful
revelation. Most importantly A.D Skolar paints an un-apologetic
portrayal of self, something that seems to be overlooked as
many artists are now marketing themselves as super villains
or action stars. And though there is an old school nostalgia laced
throughout his music, it has all the intricate melodies listeners
have come to expect from an artist of this millennium.
Together these qualities create a sound that has been
sought-after but not yet found. A blend of everything the music
used to be and everything it has evolved into.
