Iodine

Iodine was raised in the L.A. underground scene. He has a fluid mix between Outkast, Beastie Boys and the Clash. Iodine’s earliest influences were the mid 90s Hip Hop groups, Freestyle Fellowship and The Pharcyde and poets Rumi and Jon Lennon. After moving to NY his style went in a different direction. Spending time in NY hip hop clubs, and open mics, as well as absorbing the beginnings of the Indie Rock/Punk experience; Iodine formed a common ground by fusing both musical worlds. He believes all poets and MCs should represent the higher side of the human experience.

Iodine was born and raised in the L.A. underground scene. A fluid mix between Outkast, the Beastie Boys and the Clash. Iodine’s earliest influences were the mid 90s Hip-Hop groups like Freestyle Fellowship and The Pharcyde. Later he moved to New York where his style went in a different direction. Spending time in traditional hip hop clubs, and open mics spots, as well as absorbing the beginnings of the Indie Rock/Punk experience, Iodine formed a common ground by fusing both musical worlds. Choosing to freestyle over break beats mixed with Led Zepplin or Nirvana, Iodine has created a musical journey paying homage to the great founders of Rock and classic Hip-Hop.


Iodine’s first full-length Album is due out later this year. Stay tuned kids!
