Biography
Chemo began as a Producer and DJ for Frontline along with MC's Syanyde and LeEo. Alongside rapper Conflix he created the Character Assassins series of mixtapes which were notable for featuring 'Assassin Sessions' which were recordings made in one take to simulate the live Cypher element of Hip-Hop events. Alongside DJ Snuff, DJ Steas and Manage, Chemo founded Speakers Corner, a free entry monthly event held in Brixton promoting free speech.
After working on albums for Manage, Kyza, Kashmere, Verb T, Triple Darkness and others, Chemo released a solo compilation album titled Squirrelz With Gunz, mixed by former World DMC champion DJ Skully.
Despite having 'the hands of a baby' and the 'face of an inverted codger', Chemo is widely admired by a host of second generation Ugandans across a small region of south east London.
Chemo is currently working under the alias Telemachus on glamourous solo projects.
Trivia
