The Fader Effect

At the moment he does various nights across Leicester and the rest of the UK and is also working with a UK based Hip Hop group called "The Relik Mobb" and also with Canada's only Sri Lankan Rapper "Chikaadee" as part of The Nation Entertainment and World Wide Hustlers.
We asked Fader, what he made of the Hip Hop scene in the UK & India:
We asked Fader, what he made of the Hip Hop scene in the UK & India:
I wouldnt say that Hip Hop in the UK is dead, infact it's healthier than ever, but with genres like UK Funky House and Dubstep really coming to the forefront of the clubbing culture, to find a pure Hip Hop (and by that i mean the real true school hip hop, not that 50 Cent and Soulja Boy stuff) night is few and far between… Don't get me wrong, I myself play UK funky house and dubstep and i love a bit of 50 and Soulja Boy, but that true element of Hip Hop seems to be missing. For instance, Hip Hop Hijack Live at Enigma, one of the events by Laffin Gas Inc., that I checked out, is what i feel Hip Hop is all about….. It was just pure energy, with all the live acts, from the rappers, the band, the beatboxer, the dancers to the DJ's all doing their bit and bringing their vibe as individuals and as a collective and feeding the crowd all that energy was amazing, and to be part of this groundbreaking event was truly an honour and a blessing.
The hip hop culture is growing so rapidly (not just in Mumbai, but all over India) here, to be a part of it is just an incredible experience.
