The Grand Wizzard Ghettosocks

WHATCHUKNOWBOUTME?

Ghettosocks is Halifax’s own Tony Bennett of the rap game. Putting the ‘RA’ back in ‘RAP’, Socks lyrically pushes, shoves, romances, and shoplifts his way on the mic. With a strong connection to the early ’90s Hip Hop landscape, Socks explores fresh new terrain.

Founding member of Alpha Flight, known for his uncanny freestyling abilities, Ghettosocks has come of age with his first solo release, Get Some Friends. His latest release, I Can Make Your Dog Famous Mixtape, featuring the legendary DJ Jorun Bombay on the cuts, is the proving ground that Socks is the leader of a new breed of emcee.
