Haf Nef
Haf Nef.
You can call me Nef. Nef is short for Nefilim.
I am Half Nelfilim and Half Earthling.
I rap about anything. Earth life situations or devine heavenly flows full of cosmic information.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Entering the scene around 1992 as a solo artist, Haf Nef went on to form Tha H-B G-Beez in 1993 with fellow emcee Billy Dimes(aka Lil Man). The He-B G-Beez broke ground as the first hip hop act (along with GFB, Illphonix, & Odyssey) at the now legendary Mason Jar in Pheonix. Tha He-Beez were featured on the internationally released compilation All The Rage and went on to release "Trials" in 1995.Haf Nef was also featured on Billy Dimes "Tha Grilt Cheez LP" (1999) & "The Konsuntrashun Kamp" (2002) are considered classic releases by many in the PHX scene. Haf Nef has performed live at the Mason Jar, Billy Gordon's, Jackson's on 3rd, and numerous other smaller venues.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Of course. I am trying to come up with a dope stage show to go along with my Haf Nef concept album. It will cost me an arm and a leg for all the different effects and props that i'll need. But it will be real tricked out show!
