Name: Bomb
Status: Rapper, Graphic Designer, photographer
Bomb has always been into hip-hop but first began rapping in 1998. He made his first song by playing an instrumental and rapping at the same time, which didn't allow any room for mistakes or it meant starting all over again.
Bomb decided to make an album in 2001 after making appearances on Ravens albums and realising he had enough material and ideas to make his own. Since then he has made 2 other projects and made guest appearances on many other albums. Bombs rapping is always progressing but he still doesn't feel he has reached his full potential. He tries to make songs that reflect the way he feels, he wants his emotions to come through on the tracks as he thinks this is when he makes his best songs. He says "you've got to really feel and believe in what you're saying or it just comes across as weak and fake, you shouldn't be rapping about being pissed off and angry unless you really are. That's why I have to be in the right frame of mind when recording certain songs. Cus I cant do it if the feelings not there". Bomb always wants his next project to be better than the last and is always trying new ideas, because he feels if your not progressing there's no point.
He is influenced by many different music forms and artists not just hip hop, Bomb wants to be known for his own style and sound because he feels that the best rappers are the ones with a unique style. Whereas 'so many just blend into the background cus they sound like everyone else'.
The Saint came through poetry.
He started at 14,

"I'm as real as they come , the truest one.."
(The Saint, year 2000)
"A break from the norm just to refresh ur systems
I'm the lyricist and Marcs the musician"
('The beats', Marc feat. The Saint.)
"..Dont hessitate its The Saint
give me a minute and I shall penetrate,
I dedicate this 2ur vehicle speakers
bang it in da clubs every single weekend"
