On The Radar Artist Profile: Lee Scott

Name: Lee Scott aka Mr. Wrong (of Antiheroes)

Age: 24

From: Runcorn

Track on ‘On The Radar’: Antiheroes - 'Sub-Human Nature' ft. Darkstar

Tell us the story behind the track: Basically wanted to make some horrible grimy s**t coz I was PISSED OFF over some s**t I am not willing to discuss with normal humans. I dropped a verse on the bangin' grimy ass Reklews beat originally intended for the Hock Tu Down LP, then got Darkstar to drop a verse. Known about this Darkstar for a while, guy dissapeared for years then we realised he was alive again after some time inside for some sort of New Yorker foolishness and got him on it too. Salar heard it and was inspired enough to jump on it on the last verse and completely kill it.

Record Label: Blah Records

Who you roll with: Children of The Damned Brick Pelican Fam, Blah Bastards.

Favourite album(s): 'Dare iz a Darkside' or 'Stress: The Extinction Level Agenda', depends on what day it is, and what the weather is like.

Describe your style in three words: Fresh as F**k

Past/Present/Future projects: Antiheroes - 'Middle Finger Salute', ETI Records - 'Extra Terrestrial Intelligence' 12'', Mr. Wrong - 'The Wrong Bootleg Demo EP', Children of The Damned - 'Tourettes Camp', Mr. Wrong - 'Put on The Glasses', Children of The Damned - 'Brick Pelican', Hock Tu Down (Lee Scott & Reklews) - 'Prozium Peddlin', Mcabre Brothers (Lee Scott & Monster Under The Bed) - 'Gonzo Lyricism', just some projects released and others 100% complete and awaiting release kid! Antiheroes was also featured on some big releases back in the day but I don't care to list 'em. Check Manage's old LP 'Live in Protest' for a grimy banger featuring the Antiheroes.

'Put On The Glasses' - Mr. Wrong (album review)

Another album that’s been out a while (can you tell I’m playing catch up?) is Mr. Wrong’s ‘Put On The Glasses’. Mr. Wrong, an alias of Lee Scott of Antiheroes and Children of the Damned notoriety, has created an album that lives up to his alter ego’s name.

With his punctuated, staccato Northern flow it’s easy to tell when he’s on the mic – always a plus point when there are a million and one rappers out there who sound, let’s face it, pretty similar.

The album kicks off with ode to Green party conspiracy-monger ‘David Icke’, a track which demonstrates Mr. Wrong’s wrongness – you wouldn’t want him in a position of power. The beat to follow up track ‘Dumb ILL’ proves that wrong can actually, on occasion be right (in music anyway) – it’s an exotically creepy jerky thing that suits Wrong’s voice most perfectly. The rest of the (self) production is a dense, more- blunted darker version of early 90’s Dre G Funk with hints of DJ Muggs’ beats.

The next few tracks serve to prove how vicious and twisted Mr. Wrong can be. Alongside Bill Shakes and Children of the Damned Mr. W proves his battling skills in unison with his warped, but often not disgusting, verbals. Things continue in this way for the duration – you decide whether that’s good or bad. The album is littered with awesome quotable, stand out lines – enough to keep a rap lyric geek entertained for 50 minutes anyway.

Your copy can be ordered from Mr. Wrong’s myspace – but hurry, they won’t be around forever.
