Chipmunk

Chipmunk原名是Jahmal Noel Fyffe，出生于英國倫敦北部的Enfield。他被認(rèn)為是英國嘻哈種類Grime（除了有Hip Hop強(qiáng)烈的節(jié)奏感還會在歌里就一些現(xiàn)象說出看法,帶有英國人特有的風(fēng)格，而不像通常Hip Hop歌曲那樣唱些空洞的言之無物的東西）領(lǐng)域最具才華的新秀之一。他在08年已經(jīng)推出過兩首單曲，而在今年3月推出的新單曲《Chip Diddy Chip》成功為其闖入英國單曲榜前20名。
英國單曲榜的最新冠軍Chipmunk是一位頗不尋常的英國Hip Hop Grime流派說唱歌手。就在兩周前，Chipmunk把Jay-Z、Kayne West和Eminem這些音樂屆的大牌明星全部打敗，獲得了Music of Black Origin年度大獎的最佳Hip Hop Act，年僅18歲就取得如此成績，絕對是“后生可畏”。
這位英國19歲新人Chipmunk發(fā)行的個(gè)人第二張大碟《I Am Chipmunk》，發(fā)布首周打入U(xiǎn)K Top 40 Albums 第二位。此前發(fā)布的單曲Oopsy Daisy，更是空降至冠軍位置。
For someone who's just 18 Chipmunk has already achieved a lot - in 2008 he received a MOBO award for Best Newcomer, an Urban Music Award for Best Newcomer, and a nomination for Best Rapper at the American BET Awards, not to mention having racked up millions of plays across his MySpace and Youtube channels - and all when he was just 17.
He's not new to the scene...at the age of 15 Chip started producing and self-releasing mixtapes, buying CDs in bulk and selling them to his mates at school. For his final mixtape, League Of My Own, he came together with Alwayz Recordings, together they then went on to release the much talked about single Chip Diddy Chip, reaching number 21 in the UK charts.
More recently he's been working and touring with N-Dubz and featured on their album Uncle B. He also put his MC talents to DJ Ironik's top 5 single Tiny Dancer.
Once his A-level exams are out of the way in June expect to hear a lot more from Chipmunk. Diamond Rings, will be released on 6th July, followed by the album I Am...Chipmunk in September.
