Bio after the jump...
Naeem Oba, revolutionary emcee, was born in one of America's original housing projects, “The Mississippi Courts” in North Minneapolis. As the son of a single mother, with an abandoned federal prison in his backyard, Naeem found himself immersed in the struggles of inner city poverty from the beginning. When Naeem was five, one of his mother's friends brought over a piece of vinyl titled The Message (Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five). From that moment on, every aspect of Naeem's life has been submerged in the hip-hop culture. At age 15, Naeem read The Autobiography of Malcolm X (Alex Haley), which inspired him to begin his life's journey as a revolutionary emcee. Today Naeem stands prepared to begin his assault on Babylon as he translates the plight and struggles of inner city youth in a colonial society. With his debut LP, Unorthodox, in the works, based on George Orwell's classic novel, 1984, featuring production by a who's who of hip-hop's elite producers, Naeem intends to put creativity back at the forefront of hip-hop music. Naeem's current projects include: "The Symbolism Mixtape", "The King and I" EP (Naeem Oba and brikAbrak)"You Are Not One of Us" EP, "the goodKnight" EP, "Suicide Watch 2 Sambodextrus" with Whygee and sunkenstate, Minneapolis Joe with Xperiment and brikAbrak, all to be released soon...
