Bio
Atiim became inspired by an eclectic range of music very early, and began to write lyrics and perform at the age of 14. Over the years he's found his writing style and voice performing live hip hop, and next doing support vocals and writing for other artists.
In 2004, Atiim had the honor of becoming the lead singer for and afro-cuban named Shotwell 25, and began perfecting his sound as a singer. A year later he concurrently started another band to begin working out more of his creative ideas.
Since 2004, Atiim has sought to educate himself about the dynamics of live music, and today, after working with many musicians, he has created Dragon Spit 22.
Dragon Spit 22 gives the full range of what Atiim is capable of doing as a writer, and a vocalist. This band displays elements of Rock, hip hop, funk, soul, R&B, and spoken word.
If a term had to be placed on the music Atiim writes and performs with DS22, it would have to be as eclectic as the sound; Hopadelic, Rock n' Soul.
