After releasing an EP (and recording an album) with electronic punk-rap project FOꓘKOP.EЯA (Finalist Circuit 2023), rapper Herb Cells and pianist Martin Daniel present the acoustic version, somewhere between jazz and baroque lyricism, alongside the excellent Manolo Cabras on double bass Ben Tequi on drums. They call it 'FOꓘKOP. UNPLUGGD’.

A Brussels’ contribution to the jazz-rap & spoken word legacy and homage to its pioneers such as : The Last Poets, Gil Scott-Heron, Daddy-O, Stetsasonic, Steve Coleman & Five Elements, B. Marsalis & Buckshot Lefonque, Guru’s Jazzmatazz, US3, Dream Warriors, G-Clef & Ghetto Philharmonic, Greg Osby’s 3-D Lifestyles, Digable Planets, The Roots, Steve Lehman & Sélébéyone, Truffaz & Nya, Soweto Kinch, Greetings From Mercury ... and many more.

FOꓘKOP. UNPLUGGD just recorded their very first album with Nic Thys on upright bass. Stay tuned for its release from Igloo Records.
