Hezekiah
131 105 прослушиваний (12 704 слушателя)
Born into a musical family, and raised just outside of Philadelphia, Hezekiah got his chops at an early age, belting out God’s greatest hits at his family’s church, and before long was singing in his Uncle’s band, the Funk Disciples (who dropped some super hard-to-find wax in the mid 70’s).
Around 86, Hezekiah’s cousin brought home a track machine and a drum machine, and he was instantly hooked. Predating the live Hip Hop trend by plenty of years, Hezekiah spent much of his early days in front of the two machines, rocking sellout shows in the living room with his Cousin on bass and Uncle on guitar.
Once out of High School, Hezekiah linked up with arguably the only Hip Hop crew to ever exist in Delaware, and put together a mixtape called «Exit Wound Status» which sold an impressive 2000 hand-to-hand copies on the streets and at shows. But it was getting up with the Legendary Roots Crew in ‘93 that spurred him to get down to business. He began to work his way up through the ranks of the Phillys ever-strong Hip Hop scene with his on point wordplay, superior songwriting, and lovely production skillsworking with the likes of Musiq Soulchild, Bilal, Eric Roberson, The Jazzyfatnastees, and Bahamadia.
Fast forward to 2005, and Hezekiah’s finally finished new albumHurry Up And Wait (a title dedicated to the woes of the independent artist), is dropping on New York’s Soulspazm Records. Put together in full-on Hip Hop hermit mode, Hezekiah produced the record locked up in his home studio, and penned all of its lyrics lost amongst crowds in the chaos of Philly.
