Orlando hip-hop legend Swamburger redefines his sound
Orlando hip-hop legend Swamburger is poised to release a new solo album, Tenfold, released on his own AGDEPPA label through Dutchie Music in Miami. Originally slated to drop this month, the album was pushed to a Feb. 28 release and will be available on all streaming platforms. This will be the artist's first solo album since 2002's The Roots of Kin.
Orlando Weekly readers first got to know Swamburger (Swam to his friends) 21 years ago when he was featured in a 1991 cover story. The breakthrough artist had brought his talents from Chicago to Orlando and was quickly becoming a fixture in our local hip-hop scene.
Swam was a key igniter at Dante's Jazz Garage, Firestone and Sapphire Supper Club's crucial Phat-N-Jazzy nights. He went on to tour as an MC/producer in the hip-hop supergroup Solillaquists of Sound, along with MC Alexandrah, poet Tonya Combs and producer/composer DiVinci. To this day, the four are inextricably linked.
