“I don’t fit in anywhere man, that’s my problem.” – Bill Hicks –
Some people are not meant to fit in. Are not built to be put in a box, to conform, to adjust. Mon appears to suffer from this delightful condition. Trying to blend the new with the old, to put the poetry back in Rhythm And Poetry, his dense blend of slam poetry and hip-hop is unlike any other Dutch artist. Raw and sensitive, aggressive and vulnerable, sincere and mocking the same sincerity in a single breath. No topic is off limits, no feeling seems to be easy and straightforward, no thought too unsettling.
His last record ‘Omgaan Met Onmacht’ ('Coping With Powerlessness') is a journey in the life of an underground artist who refuses to be bounded to conventional hip-hop and poetry rules. It explores the journey of an experienced, well-rounded rhyme-spitter, craving total freedom and explores the relentless repercussions of this conviction.
