DJ K2
Menis
Quirky lyrics and eccentric beats are his tools for self-expression. Political, personal or just plain fun, this young eclectic artist delivers his thoughts over a diverse concoction of Hip-hop beats, Indie-Rock riffs and Electro sounds.
Menis began writing lyrics over beats as a young teen and something that started off as just a bit of a fun, turned into an obsession. Realising his potential and encouraged by friends, he started performing at local youth clubs, gigs, pirate radio stations and entering and dominating MC battles. His fresh approach, clever use of words and confidence soon gained him recognition on the Urban scene and inevitably his music created a buzz in the Asian scene.
In 2006 Menis went on to gain three UK Asian Music Award nominations for Best Single, Best MC and Best Newcomer. Multi talented Menis wears several hats – lyricist, musical director, MC, presenter, DJ and designer. Not only limiting himself to making music, Menis presents a weekly radio show called Brown Boi on Desi Hits, presents video interviews, makes TV appearances and designs clothing. Refusing to be limited to one genre – get ready for Electro Pop, Hip Hop and Indie-Rock Menis style!
