Mantis [AKA Probe Mantis AKA Leather Apron].
One of the original three Aspects emcees and a recognised pioneer of the craft. Hailing from formerly the South East, then South West of England, the artist emerged mid-nineties from one of the scene’s more relevant spots; Bristol.
Remaining true to the culture’s musical roots and ever present on the live circuit, Mantis now resides in the South Pacific where he is working on an all new project.
