He has worked with most of the biggest names in UK Hip Hop including as well as super producer William Orbit and Edwin Collins, Verbs is an artist with a unique style and lyrical outlook which both embraces classic Hip Hop at the same time pushing boundaries to advance the art form.

In 2002 Verb T linked up with Harry Love to release ‘Showbitchness’ on Low life records. Happy with Verbs drive and work ethic Low Life owner Braintax invited Verb T to start recording a full length project with rapper Kashmere with whom Verbs had just started touring. The result was the critically acclaimed ‘Backhand Slap Talk’ album (Lowlife 2002) which took Verbs and Kashmere (along with producer/DJ Ghost) touring across the UK, with dates in France, Czech Republic, Lithuania, Holland, Greece, Switerland and the USA thrown in for good measure.

The now highly sought after Verb T began featuring on albums and mixtapes in both the UK and US indie scenes appearing on albums and mixtapes alongside artists such as Sway, Jehst, Ed O.G, Royce Da 59, Task Force, and many more.

In 2006 Verb T and Harry Love finally released their long overdue album ‘Bring It Back to Basics’ on Silent Soundz records, regarded by many as an instant classic. Bring it back to Basics was followed by ‘Broken Window’ in 2007, an album produced by The Last Skeptik. Broken Window was again released by Silent Soundz to rave reviews .Hip Hop Connection magazine describe the release as “an illuminating snapshot of an artist gliding effortlessly towards that next level” and Metro newspaper as “proof that the voice of Hip Hop is ever evolving and expanding”.

The last Verb T release ‘Verbs With A Vengeance’ has been hailed by many as his best work to date and has achieved cult status within the UK and throughout Europe.
