you are calling him a underdog rapper. This guy is a Cambridge graduate and then still makes it as one of the best poets in the UK. He could have been and still could be a big time barrister but he has put that on hold to educate people who don't know. He deserves nothing but respect.

Doesn't mean he isn't a well known rapper?
Tcheko Fitness
I have too much respect for him to call him a rapper. He is a hip hop artist.

Daniel Tcheko Since when is a rapper a disrespectful term?
Tcheko Fitness
+SidTheSloth rap is word and hip hop is the feeling. rap artists and hip hop artist are two different things
Irate Mastermind
+Daniel Tcheko No their not. You don't know what you're talking about.
