If it's the same guy, he's been MCing since the 80s and is probably most famous for his track 'Beat Bop' with K Rob. It's a mix up of 'The Message'-style social commentary clashing with K Rob's "I'm the White Rabbit" fruit loop gibbering. :) Also kinda notable for masses of reverb being switched on and off the vocal track, so the rapping suddenly vanishes into a massive cavern for a while... pretty cool. It's the last track on DC Recordings' 'Beat Classic'. I say "most famous for" becuase it's the only track I've heard or even heard of, but then, I wasn't following rap at the time!

hello all (hehe) rammelzee's the "fruitloop" rapper, not K-rob! - rammell's been busy producing many interesting graff inspired sculptures for a few years now - you can see him do his psychotic stream of consciousness shit on stage in the final scenes of the classic"wild style" movie, he also did a track with the death comet crew (at the marble bar) - some one hit eurobods - too long ago to remember cat no's an' all that spotter shit.. l8rz bri orange 12" out will appear one millenium.......
