"Born in London grew in Yorkshire, lived there for ten year raised with a crew of authors" The crew was YNR, I was first heard on Jehst 'Premonitions' E.P. in '98 and then on Tommy Evans 'Time Capsule' E.P. in 99. I left Huddersfields and moved to Birmingham in 98, which has been my home ever since. Over the years I have supported various acts including Jeru the Damaja, Masta Ace, Dj Premier, Blackalicious and also other international artist. In 2002, I released a 12inch called 'can u relate' on run records which sold well in London and other major cities. I spent much of 2002-2004 hosting hip hop nights alongside U.K. artist like Rodney P and Skits, Mr Thing, First Rate and Dj Skully. In 2004, as part of Heducation, I went on a U.K.tour with Mr Thing, First Rate and Aspects as the support act. The highlight was ending the tour in Barcelona and having one of the best times of my life. In 2005, I started working on my first solo album produced mainly by super producer Urban Monk. Due to university commitments the album had to be put on hold for a few months but in that time, I had chance to reflect and observe the direction the industry was going into. Recently, I have been in the studio finishing my album and producing tracks for other artists. I have also been performing and recording with 8 piece Jazz/Hip Hop Band SUMMARY as a vocalist. I have been fortunate to this day to be able to learn from my experiences and the people I have met and hopefully I will be well received when my album is released. Keep you're mind and you're ears open. Peace, Love in Harmony. T
