Band Members: SKILLA B is a young artist hailing from the North of London. SKILLA B has been in the music game for 2-3 years now, and has had solo spells as well as being part of 8 G.U.E.S.S before joining HIGHLY RATED. SKILLA B made his name from appearing on underground radio stations such as Heat fm, Mystic fm, as well as Axe fm, Manic fm and many other internet radio stations and is considered by many to be one of the most talented artists in the North London area. SKILLA B is often recognised for his distinctive flow and wordplay as well as his well thought out punchlines and powerful hooks but is yet to realise his potential and gain the recognition he deserves. SKILLA B has quite an impressive portfolio, performing at the B.A.R.S. 3 launch party and appearing on DJ Cameo's 1xtra show, as well as performing at talent showcases and raves all over England, he has also featured in the underground smash video entitled 'Union Jack' In 2006, SKILLA B released a free promotional CD entitled 'HOW I FEEL' which featured a lot of other well respected artists from the gime and hip-hop scene, and has got a decent response so far and he will hope to be heard and recognised by the rest of Europe after the release of his mixtape which is due for released this year, and is yet to be named.
