Joker Starr

Joker Starr brings two essential ingredients to the musical mix - energy and personality. He certainly possesses boundless amounts of both! The nickname 'Joker' came from a cousin as a result clowning around and irrepressible sense of humour. It also speaks in no uncertain terms of his musical style. He effortlessly references past and present pop culture turning everyday icons on their heads with a 'no holds barred' approach to rhyming. Along with the trademark humour, Joker Starr's music is often very concept driven. The conscious themes are not always obvious, in fact they often surprise, emerging out of lyrics that appear to operate on a certain level but then with a deft twist are revealed to go much deeper. He refers to himself as a lyricist, having not fully comprehended the depth of Hip Hop until he began to articulate his own ideas and experiences. Alongside his commitment to originality is Joker Starr's dogged determination to move his audience. Whether on stage or in the studio, he wants to inspire his audience to go out and do something get involved. On stage he'll scream, throw water, and hurl so much energy at the audience that they cant help but absorb some of it. In the studio he does the vocal equivalent, barely containing himself as he tries to convey his inspired message.
