Bulletproof rap avenger.I don't ever do it nice & easy.

M.E. stepped into music from childhood. Born in North West London and raised in the borough of Brent, creativity and learning was always something encouraged by his family. ‘Hearing everything from Roots Dub reggae and Sly and the family Stone through to Savannah Band and Electro coming through the speakers at home you could say has moulded my musical sensibilities thanks to my dad being involved with music, owning a record shop and small independent Label from back in the day. I couldn’t really avoid hearing sounds, as they were everywhere. My brothers were no different and I was enthusiastic about things that they were excited about. Hip-Hop being one of them.
Every song in my catalogue doesn’t  deal with hitting the usual buttons the typical rapper thinks they have to because the struggle whatever that maybe comes in various shades. When I was just starting out thinking about doing this I always knew my ‘alias’ would be me in the abbreviated form because It worked as some sort of reminder to myself to be true to self and not lose sight of that: Marcus Explains originated as an elaboration on a family joke that I always had an answer for everything- the other reason maybe is that I’m my mothers last child and thus a self centred tyrant! 
I came up with this just being a dream I’d talk about with my brothers and school friends.  In the early days I’d put songs together with long time friends in the area like Yankee and Kevin James. This continued onto creating music as part of a collective that included- Lef, T-Rebel and Xorcis great M.C’s in their own right. In these formative years I’d collaborate with other individuals here an there like Micall Parknsun (then known as Parkee) his partner in rhyme R.A.M. ,Al Simmons and Kyza ,nothing major it was pretty short lived; Other notables who have seen my journey from the start are brothers like D‘Lux, a respected producer and also someone who I’ve known since youth.Some of these works were released others were wasted opportunities-the way things were going I have to admit, it had me somewhat jaded like, what’s the point as the buying public in the U.K. doesn’t support the U.K. That was a frustrating time but what helped me was connecting with my cousin MC/Producer Propa and through him getting introduced to another great up and coming producer A.C. Layne ; their energy was a great revitalising inspiration.  We’d record where we could -community centre studios to bedroom set-up’s, it didn’t matter, as long as we could get the work done. They were a major help at that time and we’ve been working on music together ever since.

Things became even more settled once I got introduced to a collective called Uprock and started renting out their studio.Those session birthed the Elohymns EP. So as we arrive in the present times,  Besides Prop’s and A.C., with the addition of another brilliant brother by the name of Illicit Hekau also down the line  Savvy and Rainmayqah - that’s the team until anything changes’. 

Never one to rap for the sake of it -maintaining some form of creative integrity is paramount to M.E.-He has to be moved by his own work as a fan of the music before anyone else can. Moving people in the emotional sense as well as the physical with his music is a mission he will never tire of.
‘I make music and art in general for myself first, my family, my children, my comrades, my enemies, my neighbourhood, my rights and wrongs, my virtues and short comings. Everything is everything so if it’s a truth, brutal or beautiful I draw inspiration from it, life is the muse’

Spoken word artist, grounding herself through art & good health

--

Niyat ንያት Asfaha (formerly known as @Infinite_Entity - Founder of NAP LDN™ :: now and present™ @napldn) is a dynamic spirit who chooses to express herself in a variety of creative ways. However, her most dedicated passion is her love for poetry and so she is most widely known as a Spoken Word Artist.

Hailing from North West London, with strong Eritrean roots, her perception of the world as we know it may not be understood by many but commands respect by all. Niyat has learnt to use the power of her words to emotionally evoke her audience through introspective art in the hopes to help raise; awareness + knowledge of self, social issues, injustices and more. All of which with the intention to help facilitate the creation of a space where collective solutions are welcomed and nurtured.

Growing up as an introverted, shy but warm hearted soul, Niyat quickly learnt that her true voice came from her pen. She began writing songs, short stories and prayers from the age of 6. Her creativity and emotional sensitivity evolved into poetry and as time elapsed, Niyat matured through her writing, using it as a form of therapy through testing times. 

Her poetry always has purpose.

There are individuals and groups of creatives in the UK currently very active in artistically standing & fighting valiantly for a greater cause. Niyat intends to represent for the silent activists in society and create a movement whereby passionate individuals can collectively come together to make an impactful change.

Her passion and immense energy for a positive change in humanity is evident through her work as her poems highlight the need for change from within. Niyat understands that 'when there's passion involved, you literally don't get too tired...There's always energy and time for pursuing a dream worth LIVING for'. 

Niyat hopes sharing her words can help others transform a negative situation/experience into positive action; her poetry and poetic journey through life is testimony that this is possible.

Niyat's poetry has the potential to help others, as her words have too helped her through.

Join her on a collective journey...

Having the pleasure to express myself in this way and have exceptional talents from all over the world connect and help relay this message is a true blessing. I hope you enjoy the music and stay involved.
