Circus

Circus is a blur of Krylon stained free-verse, conspiracy theories, and socio-political insight. The Los Angeles-based emcee/visual artist became part of the famed graffiti crew CBS in the early '90s, and was soon inducted into the first incarnation of the hiphop supergroup The Shapeshifters. Known for spinning tales of cavemen, primates, and aliens, he'll even drop the occasional Jane's Addiction cover just to make sure you're paying attention. His work has earned him massive coverage in Vice, URB, Thrasher, Life Sucks Die, and countless others. An engaging live performance is all but expected from Circus. He's rocked stages at home and abroad, from Compton to Cologne, leaving audiences moved and left struggling to figure out what they'd just been a part of.
