Theophilus London

Oh my this guy has skills! Theophilus London aka Thelonius Kapps is another Brooklyn based B-Boy to look out for. Mark my words, he will be big, and I'm thinking Kanye big. With an album on the horizon produced by Jimmy Edgar, Machine Drum, and Harry and Clyde Productions TL has electro-nerds and hip hop heads alike dribbling all over their plimp soles in anticipation. An outsider by choice, TL didn’t fit the gangster mould and has shunned the main staples of the US Hip Hop scene. The result, a progressive sound rich with influences taken from avant-garde jazz, electronica and NY Fashion. Currently you can download an ep of rarities from Z-Share, id recommend that and there are a couple of tracks on his collaborators myspaces. Hero a favourite of mine can also be heard on my 1st podcast. Check it out!
