Dirt is the next important emcee you need to know. This dreadlocked, tattooed, militant, seeking and telling artist has blossomed from San Diegos great underground music scene. His energetic and influential onstage engagements have consisted of bridging barriers between unsuspecting rap and rock fans alike. Dirt has opened for some of the industries renowned acts such as P.O.D., as well as headlined several of his own national tours, while promoting his ten years of work.

Dirts style surrounds you with a potent mixture of dramatic, velvety beats with trustworthy emotional inflections to punctuate his liquid smooth flow. On previous recordings, Dirt has represented with his crew Shadow of the Locust (SOTL), a nationally strewn assembly of talent to bring a well-rounded exception to his music. His live performances consistently draw a large, well documented, fan base. No big wonder. Crowds are magnetized by his stage sounds and his touch; creating a completely genuine, intimate and real connection with Dirt.

His past was povertized and fatherless. Yet he found constant strength and energy in his sur-rounding culture of Hiphop. Fully submersed in turntables, breakbeats and microphones he emerged, donning the name DIRT. He also became a well rounded musician capable of pro-moting forward movement to those around him. Dirts ability to move between a warrior-like fierceness and servant-like humility constantly keeps his fanbase feeling encouraged and united.

From freestyles, to live performances, to studio tracks- Dirt consistently offers intense, mass appealing soundscapes! As an emcee, Dirt brings a message that so many heads crave as listeners, coupled with beats you obsess over. The music is capable of pointing out inner issues while keeping a root in hip-hops street credibility. Dirts versatility allows him to stretch from hip-hop to other music genres and still be well received, crossing barriers and divisions that others havent, as matters of the heart apply to everyone.

Though I am laid low in the dirt, preserve my life according to your word Psalm 119:25
