Jeff Baraka at ChiCon


InfluencesGood music of all kinds (hip-hop, breakbeat, jazz, soul, rock, funk, disco/house/techno, afrobeat, touareg, reggae, classical+).

God, life, love, sex, art, science, nature, money, urban living, astrology, etc...

wikipedia.org

"The Super Bowl Shuffle" started me rappin' (haha). Yeah I know, but it's arguably just as credible an entry point as a record like "Rappers Delight"; think about it.

Sounds LikeInvisible Ink

All my various influences (see above), but mainly true-school hip-hop: sharp lyricism, witty wordplay, layered concepts & imagery, compelling narratives... sometimes deep, sometimes playful.
