Soma: Album Coming Soon!

About Me



Layout by CoolChaserI am a Rapper, Producer, Writer, Essayist and Sketcher. I am pretty much obsessed with anything artistic and creative and hope to get into film making one day.
Been doing this for a fair while now, currently paying dues and working on my style constantly, gigging around my city on a regular basis most notably with the Reprazent night and Flow Lab nights. In the past I have performed at nights such as The Community Represents, Word Of Mouth and Neighbourhood and have supported old school hip hop legend Percee P, the man of the moment Seth Sentry and I have shared the stage with Tomahawk, Porsah Laine, Emcee Able, The Typhoons, Ivens, Thorts among others.
No releases under my belt at the moment, but I am set to be appearing on a number of releases including my own debut album which should be out early next year and my first vinyl will be out shortly. I am working very closely with Apt (formerly known as DJ Volatile) at present and 3 quarters of my albums production will be handled by him.
My lyrics are the most important part of my music (well to me anyway). My lyrical themes revolve around Depression, Isolation, The Human Condition, Addiction, Alcholism, Our Generation, Polution, Insanity, Failed Relationships, Injustice, Corruption, Looking Beneath The Surface, Outsiders, Illness, Loneliness, Wasted Potential. I suppose I would describe my lyrics as cynical, depressive. There is often a surrealist element in my lyrics too. My goal is to make each punchline a question with about 15 possible answers (will get there one day haha) I tend to favour more atmospheric, moody beats (if you want to give me something)
