Rosko Lewis

As an active emcee in the 90s and 00s (Going by the moniker of Ses and MC Ses), I went from house parties in my hometown Canterbury, to gigging with a live band in London (The Definitive Break Crew), to hip hop night promotions in Brighton (under Def Ethics and Spins & Needles). I was good, but not driven. I enjoyed it, but I was never up for taking it to the next level. Hip hop was my music and my distraction, but not my sole focus.

I have some wicked memories of being on stage with some class acts but in terms of lasting music, I had one or two hastily knocked up tracks from around 2000. And that was it. Not much of a legacy for the years of emceeing.

So now I'm knocking on, my brain is clearer and material stronger, my rhyme-style is elevated and I'm making something in my own image because it feels necessary. A one-off album on all digital platforms. A snapshot of my time right now. Something tangible out there with my name on it that'll outlast me.

Watch out for Midlife Nicest releasing January 2020. Hopefully you like it. Or not. Whatever.
