Sev Statik (born Joseph Evans) is a hip-hop MC originally from Albany, NY. His credentials and discography run pretty deep. While most average listeners were first introduced to his music through his 2002 release on Uprok Recordings (a short-lived hip-hop label affiliated with Tooth & Nail Records), he had been active with Deepspace5 since 1996. The collective also included Labklik (featuring Listener), Ill Harmonics, and Mars Ill. Are you keeping up? To make matters even more confusing, Sev Statik has also recorded under the alias Stu Dent. He was also invited to take part in Tunnel Rats.
Statik was active through the late 90s and the whole of the 00s, through his various projects, but we haven’t heard from him in about 10 years now. Sev, if you’re out there, get in touch and let us know what’s going on!
“Warning” comes from his 2002 Uprok debut SpeakLife.
