Theo, God, A.K.A. Theophilus London



The new artist taking the Hip-Hop world by storm is a rapper named Theophilus London (yes that is actually his name. Named after his great, great, great grandfather). Hailing from Brooklyn, probably Williamsburg, Theophilus is still flying under the radar. However, this is soon to change. He just finished shows at SXSW, and we are about to loose him to a tour in Europe. He is going to BLOW UP! Luckily, he is still not charging for his mixtapes, but this could change very soon. I suggest you hurry and download both of them AS SOON AS POSSIBLE: Jam! and This Charming Mixtape (who doesn’t love an Elvis Costello and Smiths fan?). Theophilus reminds me of an early Kanye, before he became a self-absorbed fashionista. Unfortunately, Theophilus dresses like those awful trendy Cool Kids with his neon colors, and white sunglasses. However, London’s verses and beats trash the Cool Kids’. London is going to get huge, and I suggest you join the bandwagon before he does.
