Reared on Rock n Roll and Motown, music is the substrate on which Mello Dee’s roots have been firmly planted. Through the guidance of his older brother, Mello Dee gravitated towards the metaphorical word play of New York 90’s heavyweights like Big Pun and Busta Rhymes, before uncovering the raw lyricism of homegrown artists like Klashnekoff and TaskForce. This aptly named artist boasts a versatile yet identifiable style that draws inspiration from both ends of the spectrum, with cryptically poignant lyricism that is comfortably melancholic.
