Influences:
My main influences are the people who i work and surround myself with, artists, producers, singers and songwriters all working on diverse collaborations aswell as there own experimental music, but joining under one name......FAM-A-LAM. (see members)
My mainstream influences include people who are actually saying something e.g. Mos Def, Talib, Slum village, Tribe, Common, but then again, there are just the hot spitters, e.g. Papoose, Eminem, Twista, Redman, not forgeting Fipmode's Lord Have Mercy(what happen there? my man was banging!!) plus many more influences from rock to soul... i try to keep it eclectic!
Sounds Like: A mixture of current social commentary on melodic based hip hop! None of this bullshit hype!! Straight facts and figures on how life is within this so called "Great Britain"
Despite the fact that all the above amounts to quite an impressive catalogue of work for an as yet unsigned artist and suggest that a significant mark is already being made, we still have more to look forward to: The continuation of his own production label Smokey Heights Production;Tokez the mix-tape, compiling new tracks, freestyles and known beat remixes; Work with other AUS, US and UK rappers including: Aphletic -2004 Diesel Award winner / Nobody 45k Records / N'fa -1200 Techniques-AUS / Illeagle Immigrant / Spinx +D Grimm Highlanders.
So, if you dont already know the name, II Tokez continuing work and current new links will no doubt ensure that it wont be long before you do.
In his own words:
"The aim is to have something ready for everyones taste; exposing the fact that hip hop aint the only music Im bound to."..
