Hip-Hops been dead for years. Witness the resurrection. DL Incognito
When DL Incognitos first record came out in 2002, he was proclaimed as Canadas best-
kept urban secret, a newcomer breathing life into a semi-comatose hip hop scene. The
album, called A Sample and a Drum Machine, dug deep into the crates to bring the
authenticity of old school hip-hop back to the forefront.
Earning his hip hop stripes the old-fashioned way, DL Incognito began his hip hop career
in 1998, performing at showcases, rhyming on mixtapes, appearing on radio shows and
steadily developing the reputation he has grown to deserve.
Nine years later, and all the buzz about DL being someone to watch out for in the future
has been replaced with acclaim for his present accomplishments. A veritable presence in
Canadian hip-hop, DL Incognito has succeeded in building on the success of his first
album.
DL Incognito released his sophomore album in 2004, called Lifes a Collection of
Experiences, which received a 2005 Juno nomination for Best Rap Recording. This
nomination served to cement his status as one of Canadas premier hip hop artists, and
was a reflection of a career that had taken him from music showcases, such as NXNE and
the CMW to headlining his own shows, opening for major hip hop acts on tour and
featuring on several seminal Canadian hip-hop tracks.
As an emcee, DL Incognito (which means delivering lyrics on the low) has been
consistently recognized for his lyrical ability and his flow. Music magazine Exclaim!
praised his first album, stating that he [DL] came out of the box slinging similes and
metaphors with punch line swagger, dope self-production and a voice reminiscent of the
celebrated late MC Big L, earning the respect of those who heard it.
In 2006 DL Incognito followed up quickly with his third full length recording titled
Organic Music For A Digital World. The album was also nominated for a Juno in the
Best Rap Recording category.
DL Incognitos appreciation for hip-hop is demonstrated by his dedication to his craft
his music achieves authenticity in a music industry that has become commercialized
almost beyond recognition. Known for his live shows where DL delivers a trip down
memory lane, you get beats, rhymes and life. No gimmicks just straight hip-hop.
DL Incognitos fourth album, A Captured Moment In Time, is slated for release on April 8,
2008 on URBNET Records.
