Recorded in Rio, the 4th full length album from hip-hop's nomadic wanderer, Ithaka, is once again testimony to the artist's "live it - write it - rap about it" philosophy.
Bio / Background
Often referred to as hip-hop's "nomadic wanderer," Ithaka's "live it - write it - rap about it" style appeals at the most basic hip-hop level. Ithaka takes the listener on a musical journey incorporating basic yet insightful lyrics and driving rhythms with distinct cultural flavor.
Born in California, Ithaka, also known as Darin Pappas, is an avid surfer and world-renowned sculptor whose travels have taken him from East Africa to Mexico to Portugal to Brazil. Ithaka's most recent album, Recorded In Rio, is a major departure from his 2001 album, Somewhere South Of Somalia. The lyrics for Recorded In Rio were scribed during a period of years, not months as was the Somalia album, and mirror the life of the artist from when he left Portugal in 1998 and returned to the US.
