Vyrus BIO

 

 

 

Whitey's passion for Hip Hop dates back to Malcolm Mc Laren, Beat Street and The Rocksteady Crew etc. He moved up from Melbourne when he was young and grew up on the Gold Coast during the '80s when the "Smurfs" and "B-Boy All Stars" were innovating the graff and break scene. During the mid '90s he skated for Alien Workshop but due to heavy partying he quit and became a full-time unconforming misfit.

Being heavily influenced by underground rap from around '94 he began writing and experimenting with dark, dirty instros.

Many years later he and the "Spellbinderz" did some demo tracks and live shows but due to the never-ending benders they soon split.


At the last show in Brisbane, he met Tex and began experimenting with a few ideas. He recorded "The Dyrtsmith EP" in less than six months, half brain-dead with just enough money to get a train and record. The EP is raw and gritty but I think everyone looks back on their first tracks and has a laugh, and for the first time in a decade he's got his shit together so you can expect his skill to improve tenfold on his debut release with the production to match.

Coming soon...unreleased tracks, live shows, skate footage and crazy shit for all the freaks who have been waiting patient! It's just the beginning...peace, Vyrus.
