Leaf Dog has been dabbling with wordplay for the best part of ten years, he is one quater of The Four Owls, beat maker to the stars, and also releases material as a solo artist.
In a world where reinventing and re-evaluating everything has become standard practice, Leaf Dog is an example of an artist who remains dedicated to the principles that make underground hip hop one of the most exciting forms of musical expression on the planet. Leaf is a true devotee to the inventive punchlines, catchy hooks and classic boom bap beat patterns. From stage to street corner, from digging in the crates to beat battles, Leaf Dog’s output is driven by the traditions that made underground hip hop what it is today.
Either as a solo artist or as part of The Four Owls, Leaf Dog has gained a strong following across the land for bringing a truly unique style when delivering some of the realest lyrics around. His unique outlook has seen Leaf and his gang support a long list of renowned artists on the live circuit including KRS One, The Godfather of Noyze Rahzel, the almighty Sugar Hill Gang and DJ hall-of-famer Cash Money, and names such as Foreign Beggars, Skinny Man, Klashnekoff, Terra Firma, Million Dan and Blak Twang from this side of the pond.
It is one thing performing on the same stage as such illustrious names, but Leafdog doesn't stop there. Having turned his attentions to beat making three years ago, Leaf Dog has already racked up a hugely impressive list of collaborations with all star names such as Rass Kass, Kool G Rap, Vinnie Paz, Killah Priest, Canibus, Q Unique, Buddha Monk, and Kurupt blessing his beats.
And if all this wasn’t enough… High Focus Records is proud to present the release of Leaf Dog’s debut solo release ‘From A Scarecrow’s Perspective’ which dropped on June 13th 2011. Features include Rampage (Flipmode Squad), Diamond D, Fliptrix, Verb T, Kid Genius & Assa, with Naïve, Leaf Dog and Ghosttown on production credits.
