Quesfire

Contrary to popular belief, hip hop is not dead. As Ques' newest hit "RE UP" proclaims, "They Compare me to Michael Phelps doing the backstroke Winning." With the roots of underground hip hop music suffocating under mainstream conquests it's refreshing to find out an artist like Ques found a hole for air. This Bronx native delivers his music with the same lyrical capabilities of any of hip hop's founding fathers, the humor of a class clown, and the knowledge of a street Socrates.  His mix of creative talent and wit is reminiscent of a lost time in hip hop music when it was about the conscious message, as much as it was about having fun. Yet, according to Ques, his music is just a mirror into his world. What a view.
        Ques' revolutionary roots stem back to his childhood. After the murder of his father, a political dissident, Ques knew it was no longer a dream, but a responsibility to pursue his ultimate love, music. Growing up in the Bronx, New York during the emergence of hip hop was exactly the fuel needed for this young artists' fire. Ques became a local hit, performing throughout the tri-state area in venues such as Pyramid, Bowery Poetry, Santos, and Nuyorican Poet's Café. Soon, he was opening shows for major acts like Faboulos, Jadakiss, and Loyd Banks.
         Ques' style is versatile. Outside of the fact that his bilingual background allows him to rap in English and French, his music has made it into television, radio, and Broadway theatre. You can hear his work on the movie soundtrack for Grandslammed 2010, Reebok commercials, and more recently he has been nominated "Best performance" and "Artist to watch" at the 8th annual underground music awards.

 Quesfire, who has already conquered the number one spot on nearly every internet music site including Ourstage.com, Reverb Nation,garageband, and SoundClick,has released his much anticipated album. RAP2k10,  which was released as a flash drive album as well as MP3 format.
