Sifu Versus

When asked about his involvement with Hip Hop, Thessaloniki native Sifu VERSUS usually states that he's, above all, a fan. No doubt, because you're probably going to see him among the crowds in pretty much every gig, jam or party in Greece. Then again, you're probably also going to see him performing, practicing the spray-can art or hosting the event you attended, too...
At 28 years of age, and with a presence in the Greek Hip Hop scene that goes back more than a decade, Sifu VERSUS can claim that he grew up along with it. The story goes back to the mid 90s, when he became known as the "freestylin' kid with the headband". Word of mouth and hand-to-hand circulation of tapes made Sifu VERSUS a subject to talk about throughout the Greek Hip Hop cores, and it wasn't long before he got himself a contract with Universal. A self-proclaimed owner of a weird idiosyncrasy, he personally shelved his solo album, after participating in a group project for Def Jam, and went on to release his material independently.
