Bio
Hailing from the streets of Brooklyn, NY, Les has been rhyming since the art form was born. He has been performing on stage and recording in professional studios since age 14.
He’s had a lifetime career of street cyphers, emcee battles, and hip hop shows, and has also performed with two rock bands. As a member of “Phattica”, Les performed in numerous venues in Los Angeles, including such notable clubs as Whisky a Go Go [live performance video above], Coconut Teaszer, and Luna Park [see Music Connection Magazine review]. While involved with “Lotus Dog” in the Bay Area, he performed at Red Devil Lounge and Elbo Room in San Francisco, and New George’s in San Rafael.
His skills have led him to work on many varied projects, including several ESPN Football video game intros, a track on the supplemental CD to the children’s book entitled “Libra: The Cat Who Saved Silicon Valley,” and a freestyle rhyme for the Star Trek documentary “Trek Nation” by Eugene Roddenberry.
Les is an unsigned artist and is available for performance, vocal recording, commercial work, and writing for artists in any style.
