Bio
Us3 is basically my musical baby. It started out in '92 as an experiment to fuse hip hop and jazz using the Blue Note back catalogue as a sampling resource. I didn’t want it to be a totally retrospective thing though so I mixed it up using US rappers and a variety of young jazz musicians from the burgeoning jazz scene in London. My original theory was that there were three elements to Us3 music; the old jazz samples, the boom bap with the rap, and young cats soloing on top. This acknowledged the past, was firmly rooted in the present, and looked forward to the future. I wanted to open up some heads. I wanted to hand on the torch. What happened next is a long story..... Click to read the full biography and discography of all 7 albums The last 4 Us3 albums (Questions / Schizophonic / Say What!? / stop. think. run) have all been released independently on my own label. The latest album stop. think. run. features US rappers Brook Yung and Sene along with the cream of British jazz talent. The 8-piece live Us3 band performed 39 shows in 17 different countries in 2009. Check the dates above for forthcoming gigs in 2011. -
