Two thousand and eleven, MC Eksman still currently holds the number 1 position of best 'Lyrical MC', awarded at the National Drum and Bass awards voted by over 22 thousand people.

In an extremely short time, in terms of a music career, Eksman exploded onto the scene in a way that wasn't comparable to any other talent to date. His style was like no others, His ability to write lyrics which had meaning and stood out against all others rocketed him to the top of the mc chain at a incredible pace.

He starting his career back in 1996 holding down a pirate radio show every weekend with his (still partner in crime) Mc Herbzie. Eksman spent many years writing, polishing his performance and enhancing his lyrics until he felt ready to take what he had nurtured for so many years to the forefront of the scene. It was only in 2003 when he got his first real bout of recognition when he was voted ‘Best Newcomer’ at both industry favourite Knowledge Magazine awards as well as the Accelerated culture awards. These two events saw him catapult onto the scene literally taking people and places by an absolute storm. His success story is one that is made from legend as by 2004 he had gone from Newcomer to Number one where he lifted the ‘Best Lyrical MC’ for which eleven thousand people voted worldwide.

Eksman went from strength to strength with the release of Drive by Car, produced by Bingo head honcho DJ Zinc. Other releases included Bad Man on Frontline Recordings, They Don’t Know on D Style Recordings, Na Blood, Roll slow and Energy to name a few.

Eks continued to pave the way for dnb mcing collecting ‘Best lyrical’ and ‘Best crowd hype’ mc in 2007 which had never before been achieved by any other drum & bass MC. He also scooped 2 more awards in 2010 and 2011 again for ‘Best lyrical’ mc.

Since the birth of Overload in 2009 Eks has staged many road block events in cities such as London. Birmingham, Bristol and Kent, with some of the craziest mc line ups seen to date. Along with the mcing and Parties Eks is working a lot more in the studio with some massive collaborations lined up for the future.
