About this artist
Birmingham, England, MC Juice Aleem got his start as one-half of hip-hop experimentalists New Flesh (with Toastie Taylor). With this pedigree and his defiant staccato delivery somewhere between Pharoahe Monch and Dizzee Rascal, and a lyrical style that excels both inside and round about the beat, it was little surprise that his solo debut, 2009′s Jerusalaam Come, would ravenously gather up critical praise. Mixing biblical verse with secular bombast, Juice’s flows are persistent — equal parts reggae toaster, raconteur, and huckster. ~ Jason Thurston
