Evil B
Genres: Drum & Bass
Evil B is a London-born MC who first made his name in the jungle scene in 1996, establishing himself as one of the most distinctive voices in UK bass music. After building a strong reputation in drum and bass, he transitioned to the UK garage world where he operated under the alias B Live, winning multiple awards at Sidewinder and other major garage events over a seven-year period. His return to the drum and bass scene in 2006 was met with open arms, and he quickly reclaimed his position at the top of the MC hierarchy. What sets Evil B apart is his unique vocal style -- a deep, growling delivery paired with lyrical depth and clever wordplay that goes far beyond traditional crowd hyping. He has been credited with changing the face of drum and bass MCing, combining the raw energy of a hype man with the storytelling ability of a lyricist. His dual identity as both Evil B (his MC moniker) and B Live 247 (his artist project) allows him to operate across multiple creative lanes. Evil B has claimed the Best MC award at the Drum and Bass Awards on multiple occasions and was recently voted Best MC in the LoveThatBass Drum and Bass Ravers Selection Awards. His longevity is remarkable -- from the jungle raves of the mid-1990s through the garage explosion and back into drum and bass, he has remained a relevant and respected figure, proving that genuine talent and dedication to the craft transcend any single era or subgenre.
