BIOGRAPHY
Originally from Guyana, BLAKKAMOORE quickly moved to Brooklyn where he was living in the hip-hop culture from his young age. With these various origins came the wish to mix sounds and cultures having now his own style between urban music and tropical reggae dancehall. He became a high value in the musical industry playing and working with artists like MAJOR LAZER, DJ PREMIER or SNOOP DOGG for who he wrote many tracks on the SNOOP LION album: “REINCARNATED” nominated for the Grammy Awards in 2013. On his last album “UPWARD SPIRAL”, BLAKKAMOORE demonstrates how reggae and hip-hop are linked by their stories, origins and influences. We can enjoy his oiled and charismatic voice on reggae music or urban sonorities. When tempo goes faster, BLAKKAMOORE still feels comfortable and his flow keeps its fluidity. This urban reggae album offers versatility and creativity from the talented BLAKKAMOORE who sings toasts and raps so easily.
On his new album “UPWARD SPIRAL”, BLAKKAMOORE demonstrates to what extent reggae and hip hop are linked, by their histories, their origins and their influences. We savor his oiled and charismatic voice, which is diluted as well on reggae as on more urban sounds. When the tempo accelerates, BLAKKAMOORE continues with ease and its flow flows fluidly. A versatility and creativity which offers a new urban reggae album deliciously rhythmic by the Guyanese who sings, toasts and raps with ease.
