The Menagerie stormed onto the UK Hip-Hop scene a few years ago, and are swiftly making a name for themselves as one of the dopest crews from the South East of England, through their energetic live shows and recently released LP, Wild Kingdom.



The main core of the Menagerie consists of three emcees: Dr Syntax, whose appearances around the country with the Foreign Beggars have earnt him critical acclaim, Professor Elemental, the mad inventor for whom no subject matter is out of reach, and Koaste, formerly of 360 Physicals and Last Men Standing who brings his boundless energy to stages around the country.



Behind the turntables is the domain of DJ Nick Maxwell, whose Adventures In Hip-Hop mixtapes have won him considerable plaudits and followers in recent years. Beats for the crew come from production heavyweights, Tom Caruana and the notorious crate digger Ido, whose rapid work rate ensure that the Menagerie have some of the best beats around.



Hailing from Brighton, Menagerie have headlined the annual Hip-Hop festival there for the last two years, and opened for some of Hip-Hop's luminaries at venues around town and across the country.



The Menagerie dropped debut album Wild Kingdom on Esperanto Records in 2005, and received rave reviews across the board. UKHH.com called it, "in the most part, faultless", and "one of the albums of the year". Availiable both online and from music outlets around the country, grab yourself a copy and experience Wild Kingdom for yourself!



The Menagerie are currently in the studio recording the follow up to Wild Kingdom, so expect to see more releases from the crew in the near future!
