Emcee Jesz
Emcee Jesz started his music journey as a rapper at the age of 18, which led to the formation of the group ‘Indiana Soul’ and soon became popular for his voice, style of rapping and his abilities of making quick beats. With the emphasis on originality and creativity, Yogi B and Dr Burn lured him into Natchatra.

The trio was the only Asian artist with the highest number of Utube downloads invited to the ‘Hip Hop Conference’ conducted by The University of Chicago. Emcee Jesz has dazzled a live group of audience in Chicago, India, Malaysia, Singapore, United States, United Kingdom and Canada with some of the top American hip hop artists.

‘Madai Thiranthu’ and ‘Indian Girls’ from the album ‘Vallavan’, were immediate and momentous blockbusters around the world. The overnight success of ‘Vallavan’ literally rocked the rap world, making Emcee Jesz one of the biggest music wonder story of 2006. After the success of ‘Vallavan’, Director Dharani highlighted the trio in the audio and video of the song ‘Happy New Year’ in ‘Kuruvi’. This song became a distinctive rapture as it relayed their identity and music to every nook and corner of Tamil Nadu. This song also welcomed them warmly into the world of Tamil television and radio. For those music fanatics out there, ‘Laadam’ is Emcee Jesz’s next endeavor so run out and get a CD today.

So what exactly is Tamil hip hop? Let’s hear it from the genius himself:

"Hip Hop is predominantly Afro-American music evolved from various other music styles like blues, jazz etc. Tamil Hip Hop was born in Malaysia in the late nineties. Yogi B, Dr Burn and I belong to the first breed of Tamil rappers. Tamil hip hop, being a very unique genre of hip hop music has its own identity and style. This uniqueness is created by the style of rapping, a mix of traditional Tamil music and instruments. I would compare Tamil hip hop to reggaeton which again is a different of genre of hip hop. Reggaeton was invented by Spanish artists and it has different kinds of beats inspired mostly by reggae and hip hop music"

What is Hiphop????

Hip hop as a cultural movement "manifest in B-boying (breakdancing), graffiti writing, DJing and eMCeeing/rapping – is an artistic commitment to seize freedom from oppressive social conditions. This artistic commitment inherent in Hip Hop culture expresses a reality of human transcendence which was originally born out of the creative impulse and cultural improvisation of the oppressed African American, Afro-Caribbean and Latino American communities of New York City(with the South Bronx as the epicenter) in the late 1970s."^[1][2][3] It was DJ Afrika Bambaataa that outlined the five pillars of hip-hop culture: MCing, DJing, breaking, graffiti writing, and knowledge.^[4][5][6][7] Other elements include beatboxing, hip hop fashion, and slang. Since first emerging in the Bronx, the lifestyle of hip hop culture has spread around the world.^[8]When hip hop music began to emerge, it was based around disc jockeys who created rhythmic beats by looping breaks (small portions of songs emphasizing a percussive pattern) on two turntables. This was later accompanied by "rapping" (a rhythmic style of chanting) and beatboxing, a vocal technique mainly used to imitate percussive elements of the music and various technical effects of hip hop DJs. An original form of dancing and particular styles of dress arose among followers of this new music. These elements experienced considerable refinement and development over the course of the history of the culture.

The relationship between graffiti and hip hop culture arises from the appearance of new and increasingly elaborate and pervasive forms of the practice in areas where other elements of hip hop were evolving as art forms, with a heavy overlap between those who wrote graffiti and those who practiced other elements of the culture.
