Almost exactly a year ago, Genesis Elijah released his collaboration album with UK production duo Krate Krusaders “Before I Was Famous”.

Not the type to hang around, on the 1st of January 2011 he released the first of what would be many new videos and internet singles, all of which can be seen at his youtube channel “GenesisElijahTV”. He also released his mixtape “I Aint Even Charging Bruv” while working on his new forthcoming album.

The consistency of output increased over recent months as he got himself a new video camera and put a series of freestyles and singles together, released something new almost every 2 – 3 weeks, the most recent of which is this new video for “My Truth” which is taken from a new EP “Painkillers & Pilkington” (a reference to An Idiot Abroad’s Karl Pilkington)

Appropriately, on My Truth, he samples dialogue from Pilkington’s colleagues on the show Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant to spell out his motivation and thoughts.

The Brixton MC, now based in Watford, is easily one of the hardest workin in the game.

Try and keep up with what he’s doing by regularly checking his twitter @GenesisElijah his website www.genesiselijah.net and his Facebook www.facebook.com/genesiselijahmusic

While working on his debut album “The Revival”, he dropped the single “Simple”, and this year’s mixtapes “Escape to Reality” and his collaboration with French producer Shaolin 42nd Chamber on “The Warrior & The Blacksmith”

Ahead of the release of his album, pushed back to 2012, his new mixtape, “Montu Arts” is a 7 track hip hop banger, produced by DJ Vital. Its now available for free download from http://www.megaupload.com/?d=QBOGBSI7

Taken from it is “Dont Sleep”, and the new video shot by Global Faction has just been released. Fans of those classic head – noddin beats and tight rhymes & wordplay also need to check out “For the Kids”, “Warriors” & “The Elements”. Proper business!

New York’s Double A.B. spent some time living in north London’s Tottenham.

As the news of the much publicized London riots of August 2011 spread globally, Double A.B. wrote the track London Calling reflecting on what he could see happening in his old neighbourhood. He got together with his old associate & fellow New Yorker Dub Sonata who produced the Clash sampled beat and then approached the UK’s highly rated MC Iron Braydz to feature.

Braydz goes in hard on the track as expected with plaudits for his “Devil May Cry” album last year still reverberating around UK hiphop

Double A.B. and Dub Sonata are currently working on a new album while Iron Braydz has new projects lined up for 2012 with some heavy hittin international names on board

The video was filmed in New York by Last Call Steeve and in London by Despa of Stay Fresh in September this year, edited & produced by Dirty Media London.
