Yao Bobby x Simon Grab feat. Freeky (aka Nathalie Fröhlich) and Seventh Sky
«Raw and intense bass and beat driven sound system vibe with wild and wicked rap vocals»
- Line-Up
- Yao Bobby RapNathalie Fröhlich RapSeventh Sky RapSimon Grab Electronics
Simon Grab's music is celebrating the error, taming raw noises and electronic feedback circuits to find a musical balance within the randomness. The combination of dirty bass electronics by the Swiss noisemaker with straightforward rapped lyrics in French and Ewe, the native language of Togolese MC Yao Bobby, culminates in a dark, experimental hip-hop and bass noise experience. As the duo ‘Yao Bobby x Simon Grab’, they've been working together since 2018, releasing their music on the Bristol label LavaLava Records, and some of their music videos have won awards. Other tracks have appeared on compilations by labels such as Exist Records, Syrphe and the Nyege Nyege Tapes. The latter organises the renowned Nyege Nyege Festival in Uganda, where the duo has just performed for the second time.
FREEKY is the new project from rapper Nathalie Fröhlich, whose hard-hitting lyrics have resonated across Europe in recent years. With this project, she dives even deeper into the raw energy and intensity for which she is renowned, mixing her incisive flow with productions that are much darker than usual. The project is an ode to freedom, to MC culture, but above all to the real underground rave. The kind that's hidden away, where anything goes, the kind that will never be profitable but will make you rich. The kind that, though sometimes threatened, will never disappear.
Seventh Sky is deeply rooted in the senegalese hip hop scene, known for his sweet flow in Wolof mixing rap and reggae/Ragga vocals. He’s been active since 2004 in various collaborations. In 2018 he releases the album «Past Present Future» (Dablessed) which was crowned the best album at the Senegal Hip Hop Awards. Today based in Zurich, he continues his way as an MC spreading wise words of consciousness.
