Bay Area MC Mezmer is hip-hop through and through, but he's got more in common with fellow anti-establishment scrapper Ani DiFranco than with mainstream rap. Employing a wry, bracing delivery reminiscent of Aesop Rock, Mezmer fantasizes about overthrowing Clear Channel and courageously admits to a preference for books over video games.
After falling in love with hip-hop music inthe late 80's, exploring the world of graffiti art and malt-liquor throughout the 90's, and opting for academics in the new millenium, Mezmer's debut album, "Kill The Precedent, is finally here.? with a musical background provided by Dopestyle 1231's TomC, KTP is a passionate response to the current state of hip-hop, the Union and humanity.
Inspired by artists ranging from KRS-ONE to Ani DiFranco, Mezmer's experience on the microphone is thirteen years in the making.? No longer just a battle emcee, his verses and songs attempt to speak to people beyond the realm of hip-hop.www.madsevenrecords.com
