Skilf is a North London based Rapper/Singer known for his heartfelt lyrics and distinctive vocals. From a young age Skilf was no stranger to the stage: a child actor performing at theatres and even starring in a full feature TV film. His passion for music was sparked a few years later as he started getting into hip hop and dance music, studying other rappers' wordplay and art of rhyming. 

He began writing, recording and performing - jumping on the mic over Garage/Drum 'n' Bass sets at house parties, open mic nights and pirate radio. His energetic delivery and ability to rhyme over different tempos and sounds grabbed peoples attention and gradually Skilf started getting booked for club nights, uni shows and festivals. 

Since independently releasing his debut album âOriginal Visionsâ in 2008, Skilf has received airplay on stations such as 1Xtra, BBC Introducing, BBC Asian Network and Kiss FM. He has shared stages with the likes of Pendulum, Ghostface Killah (Wu Tang Clan), Tim Westwood, Chipmunk, Taio Cruz, Skream, Benga and Sam & The Womp to name a few.

His collaborative work spans from Dance music legend Ashley Beedle to Dubstep star Youngman, producers Agent X and Hip Hop talents such as Genesis Ellijah, Serocee, Ceezlin, Dizraeli and Supar Nova.Â Earlier this year Skilf teamed up with Irish production duo John Gibbons &amp; Scimon Tist and made âColderâ which received extensive radio play and reached the top 40 in the official Republic of Ireland charts.

Skilf'sÂ forthcoming album âSecond Thoughtâ is more upbeat and dance based than previous releases with bass driven Electro/House beats, soulful hooks and bouncy, energetic flows. 'Second Thought' will be dropping next summer through SOI Records following the release of debut single âShuffleâ produced by Leeds based duo Stoxx &amp; Hills, which is out now along with remixes on iTunes and other digital download stores.
