The 2 Mercenaries both bring individual styles to the group which in total creates an exciting prospect in this altogether stale U.K. urban music industry. The first soldier, Yung B, is the main MC, the central vocalist responsible for a fierce style and hard hitting rhymes. Next in line, Joy-Rider, is the producer, but he also spits fire on the microphone. All of Joy-Riders beats are 100% original and personally recorded.
Influences
Of course most Hip Hop and Rap, hardcore and gangsta mainly! DMS is influenced by every unsigned rap act out there as it gives us the confidence to get out and do our thing! Da Mercenaries are also big fans of Mobb Deep, 2Pac, B.I.G, Cormega, Jay-Z, Wu-Tang Clan, The Alchemist, Big Noyd, Dr Dre, Big L, The Streets, Snoop Dogg, Scarface, to name a few.
Sounds Like
Da Mercenaries sound like 'The Streets' and 'The Beastie Boys' in a blender!
This maybe the first time you have heard the name Da Mercenaries (or DMS for short), but realize it wont be the last. With a rip-roaring blend of awe-inspiring, self produced beats mixed with intelligent, witty and sometimes breathtaking lyrics, this innovative new Hip Hop duo from Warrington, U.K, erupt onto the scene.
In April 2005, Da Mercenaries appeared on Chromium Record's compilation "The Best Unsigned Album....Ever 2" with a host of other talented artists. While in December 2005, DMS were chosen to appear on Rival Records mix tape Bedroom Beats Vol. One Underground Kings with three of their best tracks.
Da Mercenaries began back in September 1999, and now after endless improvements they have evolved into a strong force not to be messed with. Welcome to a new era of U.K. Rap and Hip Hop music, the era of Da Mercenaries.
At a stag party up on the Scottish island of Jura a friend of mine played me some tracks by Louis 'Oak' Anderson that he wanted me to hear. I really liked it and I ended up producing an EP for him. I was lucky enough to get Iain Dixon on flute (Ian has played with Primal Scream and turned down Van Morrison). This was in 2006 and then the master tapes were stolen by a skaghead in Manchester. In March 2008 I finally manged to recover the sessions and mix it. a couple of years later and I'm glad I managed it.
