Priest Da Nomad aka Mr. Moov Sumthin, is one of the pioneers of independent DC Hip Hop and the re-emergence of the U street arts scene in the 1990s. Priest made a lot of noise as a solo artist and as a member of the Freestyle Union arts organization, dedicated to elevating the art of freestyle and improvisational rhyming up and down the east coast. He was also at the forefront of the hip hop theatre movement as a member of the hip hop theatre play “Rhyme Deferred” along with now legendary actor Chadwick Boseman and Apollo Theatre Director Kamilah Forbes. Priest released a number of singles and projects throughout the span of 3 decades with numerous accolades in local press, hip hop magazines and blogs. In 2022 Priest Da Nomad celebrated 30 years of making and performing DMV Hip Hop and the release of his new “Receipts” album, in which him and the legendary DJ Kool remade his classic hit, “The Music Ain’t Loud Enuff”! The year 2023 will see Priest continue to release videos from the Receipts album, as well as a long-awaited documentary on his 30 year music story and the challenges of pioneering hip hop in a city most known for GoGo music. Priest Da Nomad continues to unapologetically represent the best of boom bap hip hop/soul music from the DMV!
