“A breath of fresh air from the smog of commercially-control messages of mainstream hip-hop.”
Mabili Ajani -Critical Times: Talk Revolution-
“This independent hip hop artist delivers some of the most provocative, politically aware and revolutionary lyrics in the region’s vital underground rap scene.” “The most original and resonant releases to emanate from the Bay’s underground rap scene to date.”
Scott Harrell -Creative Loafing-
“Addek the Suncoast’s most talked about hip hop performer, judging from reviews, airplay, and civic group recognition”
Mark Beyer – Tampa Tribune-
“When he delivers the line, “Intifada fighters, American occupiers, American liars, weapons suppliers,” you can feel Addek’s vitriol hit like a slap in the face. In a hip-hop landscape littered with the bling-laden cadavers of gangsta rap dinosaurs, Addek helps reinvigorate the concept of rap as social and political commentary. “Infamy,” despite some shortcomings, is razor-sharp protest music for the 21st century.”
