The nerdy, introspective hip hop record Jesse was trying to make from 1997 until 2001. Finally released in late 2004, Origami won the award for Urban Recording Of The Year in 2005 from the Music Industry Association of Nova Scotia.
Bio / Background
Halifax has been good to Jesse Dangerously, and Jesse Dangerously has been good to Halifax. Both an archivist of and participant in the city's hip hop scene, Dangerously has been a cheerleader at the gigs of others, a sight to behold at gigs of his own, and keeps the city in raps every Friday night as host of CKDU's The Pavement.
He was recently rewarded for all of his efforts by being voted runner-up Best MC in the Coast's Best Of Music poll, and featured on CBC's Atlantic Airwaves.
"I'm honestly a phenomenally gifted MC/producer/percussionist with a keen grasp of odd time signatures and moderate skill in expressing emotions and/or concepts," says Dangerously, having wisely chosen a genre that loves a braggart. A prolific performer and producer, he has three solo releases to his name, as well as a handful of collaborations and a slew of production credits.

A big fan of 1988 to 1994 era hip hop, Dangerously's influences include the lilting hyperspeed of Chip Fu; the pop culture whirlwind of Das Efx; the indignance and unabashed political overtones of Public Enemy; the intricate rhyme schemes of Lord Finesse; and the cocky arrogance of teenaged LL Cool J or Fresh Prince.
When these favourites are processed through Dangerously's own filters, the end result is an almost impossible mix of contrasts. Brainy and bratty. Fast talking and sing-songing. Self-aggrandizing and self-deprecating.
In addition to his frequent Halifax performances, he has also toured Eastern Canada, performing at Toronto's Wavelength and the Under Pressure Graffiti Festival in Montreal. He is releasing his fourth solo CD at the end of the summer of 2005.
