SHY & DRS were born in Aberdeen, 2nd November 1984. The TWINS began Writing Rhymes and Producing back in 1999 and have since carried their weight a Long Way in the Industry. After taking years to form their unique sound and lyrical skills, they released their debut LP in 2005 entitled THE UNEXPECTED which was released on Independent Record Label PSI. This LP was just the beginning for this hungry duo.
When THE UNEXPECTED was released, SHY & DRS quickly made a name for themselves in UK HipHop.
SHY & DRS PIONEERS OF UK HIP HOP
SHY & DRS are the first HipHop act from the UK to land an international record contract. After putting the work in, owning their local scene the twins were soon noticed for their lyrical ability. After remixing a very popular Akon record, they were given permission from Akon himself and KOCH RECORDS, the biggest record company in the world, to use the track legally.
This got the attention of Canadian record label Awe RECORDS and Adam Belford Management picked the guys up for a 3 album deal. They are to release at least 9 singles through Awe RECORDS.
"SHY & DRS are not you’re typical rappers, they do not live up to the stereotypical idea of the American standard MC, they both have incredibly good University Degrees (Shy studied to PostGraduate Level gaining his Masters in Psychology and DRS with a 1st Class Honours Degree in Sociology) and were both teeing up careers in, wait for it, the Police force before being picked up by Awe in early 2008. Their intelligence shines through in their witty rhymes and punch lines"
G O'Driskall, The Sun
With Their New Album, BEHIND CLOSED DOORS set to be the Biggest Album Release to come from Scotland for a Very Long Time, And Another LP due out later in the year, Be sure that you will be seeing A Lot More of SHY & DRS in 2009…

Have a good one on Friday night? Me and Rek tore up the decks for about 5 hours once we got down to the party with Colin jammin on the sax. TaCo by that stage was too minced to properly MC tho!
If you're in Aberdeen on Friday ourselves are playing at Tunnels 2 with kUDAlites and the Abdn Beatbox Collective - would be good to see you there.
Gimme a shout if you're needin a DJ anytime - given the chance to listen to your tracks before playing I think it'd sound tight!
