Scroobius Pip

Last updated: 6 hours ago

Born in 1981 and raised in Essex, England, David Meads began writing poetry as a 24-year-old. He eventually adopted the pseudonym Scroobius Pip, an intentional misspelling of an Edward Lear poem, and started touring the U.K. as a spoken word artist. After wrapping up work on a self-released poetry album, No Commercial Breaks, in 2006, Scroobius Pip put his solo career on hold and formed an electronic hip-hop duo with local producer <a href="spotify:artist:2M4nNMw5bfpnvfZIi1jnXq">Daniel Stephens</a> (aka <a href="spotify:artist:2M4nNMw5bfpnvfZIi1jnXq">Dan Le Sac</a>) instead. Christening themselves <a href="spotify:artist:43wKY96Kd6ucV8s3KTekTn">dan le sac Vs Scroobius Pip</a>, the two combined Pip's witty poetry with <a href="spotify:artist:2M4nNMw5bfpnvfZIi1jnXq">Le Sac</a>'s glitchy electronics, a combination that earned accolades in the U.K. as well as America. <a href="spotify:artist:43wKY96Kd6ucV8s3KTekTn">Dan le sac Vs Scroobius Pip</a> released two albums -- including 2008's Angles, which became a Top 40 hit in England -- before both members briefly returned their attention to their own solo careers. Taking a break from hip-hop, Pip explored a more rock-oriented sound on 2011's Distraction Pieces, a popular solo album that peaked at number 35 in the U.K. ~ Andrew Leahey, Rovi
