Настоящее имя: Mr. I/O
Об исполнителе:
In 1993 Mr. I/O known then as “Sketch” left his first group due to personal differences. The group was called the Dum Dums, a battle hungry band of 3 friends known for spitting venomous freestyle flows on any given occasion. To begin work on a new project this would eventually be known as The Zoomalactics. He, Rohan Maroon, & former Nextraterrestrial Larry Dirt originally formed the group and began touring and recording locally in the Ottawa Area securing a decent sized following and eventually appearing on Rap City’s first ever visit to Ottawa, Ontario Canada. In ’94-‘95 Nextra set up its own small scale studio where they lay the groundwork for new tracks and stage performances. Mr. I/O could be found either writing rhymes or training young Nextras' in the art of freestyle. Helping each artist find a style all their own. Shortly after, Zoomalactics expanded into a 7 man super group including Aleus (of Isolated Showers), Cash (Known now as Tawfeek of HoddRawks), & Deception. Together as The Zoomalactic’s these heads battled crews, ran Freestyle clinics on local College radio stations 89.1 & 93.1, and rocked numerous shows. Gracing the stage with such acts as, XZIBIT, The Pharcyde, Tha’ LIKS, Lords of the underground, Dead Prez, the Rascals, Kardinal Offishal, Saukrates, & Choclair to name a few. Years later Nextra’s “The Coda Quota LP” was released and on it Mr. I/O flexed his musical dexterity to the fullest by both soulfully singing and also spitting jewels as an EMCEE. Mr. I/O has been featured on fellow Nextra releases by Isolated Showers, Rohan Maroon, and HoddRawks as well as his super sick solo track “The Xavier Syndrome” (also on “The Coda Quota”) has since been featured on the CBC television drama, ‘Drop the Beat’. The eclectic sounds of his raw lyrical content and freestyle abilities mixed with his near perfect singing voice makes for a blend none can ignore. Mr. I/O’s currently in the studio lacing tracks for his debut solo LP due out early 2003. It will include many hot new tracks of Mr. I/O’s own brand of twisted linguistics mixed with the digital organics of longtime Nextraterrestrial producer, Kelron Magnanimous. Mr. I/O is currently working with the production and management outfit of Noizee Bunkarz Entertainment Inc.
