Bateen

Bateen is a talented artist with a passion for rap, rock and hip-hop.
Hailing from San Francisco, Bateen has a unique background. He
lived in West Africa up until he was 14, and eventually, he returned to
the United States, where he got his start in the music world. At first, he
was actually a street promoter, and later, he managed to score his
first-ever record deal, along with a group named The Circle.
Pushed by his boundless creativity, Bateen also embarked on a solo
career as an independent artist, with a huge international fanbase.
This charismatic hip-hop artist managed to combine stunning
melodies with infectious grooves and great beats, in order to create a
catchy, yet direct and edgy sound.
Bateen’s music is a great example of his sonic vision, marking a really
unique step forward for this artist, whose sound is becoming
increasingly more personal and define, one release at a time.
This charismatic performer is quickly generating quite a powerful buzz
around him: due to his distinctive approach to songwriting, Bateen has
often been compared to artists as diverse as Sun Ra, Public Enemy
and Eazy E, just to mention a few.
Watch out for his new single, “Everybody Wanna Be A
Rapper,”

which is not only a catchy song, but also an acute
observation of how everyone these days want to ride the trend/wave of hip-
hop and want to be a rapper, even when they actually have no talent and creativity!
