GODISHEUS (Gotta See Us)

About Me


The Godisheus International Funk Train aka The GIFT, or simply Godisheus (pronounced Gotta-See-Us) is the new dominant force emerging from the D.C. indie music scene. Formed by veteran D.C. hip-hop icon Head-Roc and the MVP Band, an all-star lineup of some of the heaviest hitters on the go-go scene— Dwayne ‘Super Bad III’ Lee on guitar (Fayces U Know, Heaven Sent, MVP, Familiar Faces, 3LG), Keith “Blizzard the Bass Lizard” Snowden (Little Benny and The Masters, Backyard Band), and Kenny “Kwick” Gross on drums (Chuck Brown, Lissen Band) , Godisheus is working hard to define a new live sound rooted in the Funk.
Head-Roc, who has taken on the stage name Om V for this project, is no stranger to working with a live band. During the mid ’90s, he and Super Bad III (lead guitar) were part of Three Levels of Genius (3LG), a live hip-hop band that proved influential in the region. Om V is is quick to point out that Godisheus is not a hip-hop band but rather “the 21st century return of substantive Funk music for the people.”
As we all know, Funk beget Go-Go and Hip-Hop in ways dear to the District. Don’t get it twisted: Godisheus is no cover band doing their best Parliament rendition; they are that raw D.C. Funk sound with a message of empowerment for the people delivered by one of D.C.’s mic champions.
Over tight arrangements that are equal parts funk, rock and soul, O.M.V. brings the lyrical heat, speaking truth to power with every line, something that has earned him the respect of hip-hop heads, punk rockers, indie rockers, the anti-war movement, and progressive audiences all over. Powered by Kwick’s impeccable drumming, Super Bad III’s six-string magic, and the low end work of Blizzard the Bass Lizard, the Godisheus International Funk Train (The GIFT) is set to dazzle audiences worldwide!
