Roland Ikponmwosa Idehen a.k.a. DJ Sidious a.k.a. Sidious Mercutio a.k.a. Sid a.k.a. Siddy a.k.a. Rollnizzle a.k.a. Row Row a.k.a......the list goes on; Started his dj career at the age of 20. As a young boy he always proved to have a talent for dancing and entertaining and it was only a matter of time before he pushed on with his desires.
Born in London, United Kingdom. Raised during his teens in Nigeria. Sid majored in Computer Studies and Sound Recording Technology. Catchy melodies and hooks are his thing, striving to get his own soul put into his music. Mercutio is unique. He is up for collaborations with anyone who feels his style and flava....Hip Hop/RnB/Lounge/Dance/Soul.
He has worked with an array of upcoming UK artists (Including Kyra Simone, David Mensah, Blitz, Meleka and more) and has managed to foster an international appeal, with his tracks gaining interest from people across the pond. Sid has even had his work championed by BBC radio DJ’s. Stay Tuned...There is much more to come from this budding producer! Peace
‘’…hopefully one day my music would materialize in all its glory and then i’ll be spent; knowing i gave my all and my all was good (laughs with a smile).... ’’
