Syke
SYKE is a poet. SYKE is a rapper. SYKE might become the savior of local Hip Hop. Could this poet from Iligan be the best Tagalog rapper in the the Philippines? SYKE is a mystery but one of the local hip hop's most anticipated album release is now available in record stores!!!!!! Produced by Boom of Kulay, SYKE's 10 cut all Tagalog album is destined to be a hip hop classic!!!! The combination of SYKE's deep, sensitive and poetic lyrics recited over Boom's always innovative beats, will make SYKE's self titled debut album elevate the local hip hop to the next level. With so many "underground" hip hop flooding the market nowadays, SYKE's album will break from "the pack" because of the subject matter of his song, the "hookiness" and also because of SYKE's deep and resonating voice that commands attention. SYKE's carrier single is "Lupit Ng Pagibig (Kalimutan Mo Na si Vincie)", is a song about a guy giving his friend advice about forgetting a girl who doesn't Feel the same affection as his friend does. The witty tongue and cheek song is relateable and humorous. The album has a wide variety of topics about love. Love for one's country in "Dilang Makabansa", a sad love story about drugs in "Maria Juanita", love for a girl, in a revival of a famous Visayan song "Usahay", love for hip hop with the song "Balagtasan" that includes underground legends (Pamilya Dimagiba, Oblaxz, I.P.K., Dalawang Dalubwika. Hiyabeh). Syke paid his dues and gained respect after becoming the undisputed freestyle Grand Champion in Andrew E's underground hip hop show called Andrew E's Drive By. SYKE has already recorded a few songs in different compilations with Ghetto Doggs under Dongalo Records. When Boom heard his lyrics and the distinctive and very confident voice Boom signed up SYKE to his own record label called vibestation Entertainment and SYKE became the second release after 7 Shots of Wisdom. Boom considers SYKE such a true poet that he encouraged SYKE to do a little booklet of his poetry which is now included in his debut album and is entitled "Katas Ng Kape". So is the hip hop game already over? No, vibestation Entertainment proudly presents a new beginning. (Source: Vibestation Entertainment) |
