Artist Bio
Bizarre

In these turbulent times of war, trashy reality TV, divided blue and red states, and cardboard politically correct censors, there is one man who can rise above the madness. There is a force willing to fight for the underdog and the downtrodden. There’s an individual who takes pride in being a role model for millions of kids in need of guidance in a violent and sex-obsessed world gone out of control.

What else can be said for the weirdest member of Detroit’s notorious platinum plus hip-hop crew D12 (Dirty Dozen). Indeed, in past lyrical outbursts, Bizarre has boasted of engaging in S&M orgies with midgets, bumping off (late) comic actor John Candy, and mistakenly picking up transvestites in a drug-induced haze while recklessly wheeling a Harley Davidson.

Having delivered his brand of demented comic relief meets sicko lyrical brilliance on D12’s SoundScan-topping releases Devil’s Night (2001) and D12 World (2004), Bizarre is once again poised to piss off the status quo with Hannicap Circu s, his solo debut on Redhead Records/ Arsenal Entertainment/ Sanctuary Urban. And while such a seemingly disturbing album title is bound to stir protest among P.C. enforcers, Bizarre maintains there’s a more conceptual meaning behind the madness. “I came up with the title because I really felt like most musicians that I’ve been around are fucking weird,” says the matter-of-fact rotund emcee. “I know I have my little weird ways, so I consider myself a special artist. I’m a guy that chews paper, wears a shower cap in public, pops Vicodin pills and goes fishing. There’s not a lot of entertainment out there…everything is so hardcore, shoot ‘em up bang bang. I’m here to lighten up the hip-hop game.”
