Famous for 'never meeting a stranger'; Black Atticus(Born in Atlanta, GA, raised in Knoxville, TN) emerges as one just meant to connect with people through his art; and connect he does. Revered as one of most promising artist of the ever-growing knoxville music scene, Black Atticus is the product of disciplined self expression and is a reflection of what happens when one keeps themselves surrounded by others with like goals and desires. As co-founder of Blacksunshine.org and hrhiphop.com, Atticus is leaving clear undeniable marks on both the south eastern hip hop and national poetry slam scenes.
PERFORMANCE WISE:
Atticus' ability to accurately mold his voice and switch his flow up to whatever he feels a track deserves, has him often accused of neglecting to mention a feature's names on track listings or flat-out asked whether or not it's actually him on a song or not!!!
Fortunately he prides him self on being able to bring more of the tradional story teller crafts (such as voice alteration) to light.
