Mr Parker on Production......
Lewis Parker is without doubt one of the most talented producers to have emerged from the Uk Hip Hop scene. Many feel it was his 'golden' sound that paved the way for producers and mc's.
Although at the time of it's release, Masquarades and Silhouettes was relatively under the radar, it has grown to be a British classic. Ask many UK rap fans to name a top 10 hitlist, and most will rank LP's Lp up there with Braintax's Birofunk and Jehst's High Plains.
A Canterbury native, Parker's beats and lyrics take you right out of the city limits of London and New York which have become his home. Having spent 3 years down in 'The Garden of England' it's easy to understand the magic of the album and its beautiful surroundings.
Since then, he's gone on to produce the majestic 'It's All Happening Now' featuring some of Jehst and Klashnekoff's finest verses, as well as many remixes and odd jobs across the pond, including being the first UK producer to have a beat on a Ghostface cut.
Turn your history books to P for Parker, and press play................
Shame about his new accent.......
