Youthstar X Miscellaneous
Hip-Hop / Electro
Originally from London, Youthstar began his career on the Drum&Bass scene, notably within the Dirtyphonics collective, then with Camo and Krooked during a
world tour.
In 2014, Youthstar meets the group Chinese Man then joins their tours around the world and participates in the project The Groove Sessions Vol.3. He also surrounds himself with Senbeï (Smokey Joe & The Kid) on production and releases his first 2 solo projects on the label Chinese Man Records, SA.MOD and Back To The Sauce, on which he collaborates with many artists such as Chill Bump, Dope DOD, ASM, Deluxe or Foreign Beggars.
While he is touring with his own live album, he also participates in the tours of Chinese Man in France and abroad for the album Shikantaza.
Miscellaneous is first and foremost the voice of the fusion band Fumuj and Rytmétix, in which he had the opportunity to collaborate with Doctor Flake and Metastaz. A pure English native speaker, Miscellaneous arrived in France at the height of the golden age of French rap and quickly imposed his sharp and impulsive flow.
Since 2010, he forms the duo Chill Bump with the beatmaker Bankal. The group released 4 albums (Ego Trip, Crumbs, Going Nowhere and Crumbs Vol. 2) and performed on many French stages and abroad. Over the years, Miscellaneous multiplies collaborations (Biga*Ranx, Taïwan MC, Foreign Beggars, Smokey Joe & The Kid, Senbeï, Degiheugi, ASM…) and gets closer to the group Chinese Man and the MC Youthstar with whom he forms an explosive duo.
At the end of 2021, Youthstar & Miscellaneous release their joint album Out Past Curfew on Chinese Man Records and work on other upcoming projects as a duo, including an EP, a second album and NFT releases.
