Skilf

Skilf is a rapper with Eight A – C grade GCSEs and BA (Hons) in Drama and Cultural Studies, who has been described as, “An exciting talent breaking barriers with his own agenda” in Clash Magazine.

Skilf is a Brighton/North London based rapper whose work possesses intricate lyrics and sharp delivery. His distinctive sound has been crafted through six years of writing, rhyming and performing. He has performed at a number of events supporting and appearing on the same line ups as Ghostface Killah (of Wu Tang Clan), Tim Westwood, Kidz In The Hall, Sway, Task Force, Jehst and Skinnyman.

He is influenced as much by Bob Dylan and The Wu Tang Clan and this has had a huge impact on his lyrical content.

With debut album ‘Original Visions’ released last year, Skilf has also appeared on a number of different mixtapes and promos, including the Brighton Hip Hop Festival CD in 2007, which was distributed through Hip Hop Connection. His new single ‘Slow Me Down’ has had airplay on 1Xtra, Pyro Radio and many regional stations.
