He goes by the name Kratos Himself.

As a young kid he always was interested in music and began to experiment with percussion and instruments such as the  jewsharp. In 2008 he made his first attempt on making his own music using a computer. Three years later he has made his first  appearance on the  radio with the song called Lonely Ride. This will be the first release by Kratos and also the first single of his  upcomming album entitled My Mellow Yellow Taxi which will be released in 2011. A  55 minutes long athmopsheric ride that features  15 tracks with several passengers from Canada and The Netherlands. With influences such as, Jazz. It’s an experimental Hip-Hop    album that would fit in the genre Electronic. However, it sounds very organic

Sometimes good things come from drunken black-outs. I know this dude here in Vancouver named Copasetic. He’s a rapper and comic nerd and sometimes comes out to the jams. I’m a lover of hip-hop (especially old school). One night, while drunk, I jammed a copy of Murder Book into his hand and told him he had to do a theme track for it. I have almost zero recollection of this, but it sounds like something drunken Ed would do. A few days later, Cope shot me an email to tell me that he’d already started working on the track. A few weeks later, it was in my inbox. It’s some good stuff, and I’m more than thrilled to have a Murder Book theme song.    – ED BRISON (Murderbook Writter)

Song Credits:

Murder Book – Copasetic ft. Gracelle Bonifacio
Producer – Pace Beats
Mastered – Sythe of ILL-Legitimate

THE WEE does it again! This cat has released more videos than anyone in Dutch Hip-Hop history. This is the 3rd video off his collaboration album with king producer, Sensei Walingh – The BOOM BAP EP – Walingh & The Wee baby! Walingh & The Wee!

Featuring the homey, Skenkie, the track, translated as “Beautiful Day”, brings a chill, summer vibe while resonating the message that “today is a beautiful day for changing”.

Video by ENielz. Peep it!

“The project is a juxtaposition of children’s literature, with playful illustrations by Josh Holinaty and a storyline intended to improve kids’ vocabularies, and a rap album (downloadable with a unique code inside the book) that’s not for kids at all. Well, maybe just the wily ones.” – UGSMAG

In Q Without U, AOK tells us a tale about the letters “Q” and “U” (yes, from our alphabet), personified as a couple in a relationship. “Q & U were inseparable, as wherever there was Q there was U.” But for some reason, they are breaking up to see other letters. What happened? What will these crazy letters do now??

The album is, in itself, a story in love songs. 8-Tracks (that’s 8 songs. No, it doesn’t work in your pops old audio player). Each one told in the sincere yet forceful yet comical yet intelligent style of AOK.
