M.C. K~Swift is on BlogSpot & Twitter!

Reppin' from NYC's Lower East Side by way of Brownsville, Brooklyn: K~Swift is an emcee.

Starting at age 12 ('93-'94) he wrote and recorded songs with the Cherokee Chiefs (producers for Master Fuol, Buddha Monk, and many others) as part of the rap group Creed until 1997. Those guys taught him a little about beat making too. A writer determined to make a strong mark on the face of English literacy, M.C. K~Swift coordinated programs and mentored teens at Urban Word NYC. He also trains educators on bringing Hip-Hop Culture, creative writing and performance into their classrooms.

As a founding member of the progressive Hip-Hop collective, New Rap Order, and a member of the Universal Zulu Nation, M.C. K~Swift is among both the vanguard and the old guard of True School Hip-Hop Culture. He currently tours as an emcee for the legendary DJ Afrika Bambataa, the GodFather of Hip-Hop.  His debut solo-recording, "No Plaque, No Problem, - The EP" was released on NRO Records in May 2006.  With an electrifying stage presence, M.C. K~Swift is sure to leave crowds fulfilled.  His live show is more than a performance, it is a cultural engagement.

M.C. K~Swift can also be heard on Rise Up Radio, Friday nights from 9pm - 10pm on 99.5FM WBAI New York - also streaming live on http://www.wbai.org
