Dolo The Bandit

Genre: Hip-Hop/Rap
Secondary Genre: Soul Bronx, New York USA Contact

In today's era I consider myself an artist considerably more than just a "rapper". Not because I'm a producer as well but because I strive to be a musician in all of my musical compositions for the near future. The general public don't assume I'm an emcee of high caliber, due to my character outside of my showmanship and I like it that way, it allows room for the unexpected. Dolo The Bandit comes as a surprise to many in this market of NYC rappers for the simple fact, my sound doesn't have any of the big apple's typical signatures you'll usually hear repetitively. The elements of my craft are the essence of hip-hop. Though my major influences are from the legends of New York (the Nas's & Jay-z's) somehow the music I create has always been universal.
