THE AKWORD EXPERIENCE/B.A.B.P.
CHANGE IS IN THE BALANCE
WELCOME
August Zumwalt is Akword, the hard hitting, poignant and thought provoking artist of our time and beyond.
ANSWER ARRIVES
Born in Eugene, OR, a hot spot of activism surrounded by a sea conservatism. A seed develops.
CHARGE
Transplanted from Portland to Venice,CA at the time the world felt southern California's skateboarding cultural revolution. His passion and attitude towards skateboarding he applies to his music. Charge and take no prisoners.
INFLUENCES
It was the early musical influences of socially active artists such as Public Enemy and Suicidal Tendencies that paved the way, but a man must stand on his own achievements.
ENTER WORDPLAY
Akword, a raw bones tactical MC (Message Carrier), who approaches his craft with fluidity and genius. The edgy feel of his lyrics combined with the driving rhythms is anything but awkward. It fits well. He's opened for or worked with hip hop stars such as: KRS ONE, MOS DEF, Immortal Technique, Common, Talib Kweli, Zion I, RBL Posse, Digital Underground, Jeru the Damaja, Mr. LIF, Jah Yzer, Coop De Ville, Paul Nice, J Boogie, DJ Wisdom, DJ Swamp, DJ Honda, RAW B, KUSF Beat Sauce, DJ Craze, Triple Threat DJ (Vinn Roc, Apollo, Short Kutt) and many others.
