Bio

Abdulwahab,Born 31th/march/1979) Is a Nigerian hiphop producer and rapper. He began rapping in 1998 in a group called ‘Underground Dwellers’.The group never recorded a full LP, and in 2001 they broke up and Jabarad decided to go solo. He began production work in 2003, and in a short time acquired a client roster that boasted heavyweight artists like Ill Bliss, The Kalifate, Str8 Buttah, B Elect, Attitude, Vokal, Shangox, GQ to name a few. Describing his sound as a fusion of life and beats, Jabbarad is quite unique in that his ear catches a lot of sounds and he separates them as distinctly as the different genres of music. In plain English, a rap instrumental produced by this genius sounds completely different from an R & B instrumental from the same hands. He cites Dr Dre, Pete Rock, RZA, and Preemo as his production influences. On his style of rap, he says he refrences the WU and particularly likes their style because its ‘raw and naked…completely honest’. Jabbarad started work on his LP, the aptly-titled ‘Headz on Deck’ thusly titled to represent a gathering of emcees to represent the true culture. Originally, he started work in early 2007, but had to slow down for a bit due to a hard-disk crash that left him with very few of the original material he started with. Not daunted, Jabbarad started recording all over again, but the LP’s now finally done and raring to go. ‘The purpose behind this release is to avoid the over-saturated mainstream pop that has everybody confused. A lot of people calling themselves hiphop…and even the media is as guilty as the artiste for both their ignorance. Once there’s an act they cannot categorize, they call it ‘hiphop’. And that’s just plain bs. With this release, we intend to let the people know that this is real Hip hop. It’s bigger than me’ he states. Singles in rotation are ‘Mountain on Fire’ ‘No Long Talk’ featuring Ill Bliss, ‘Fair Fear’ ‘This One That One’ just to name few. A video for the collaboration with Buddah, titled ‘Kick Game’ is in the works. [color="blue"][/color][b][hr][link="URL"]
