Rootwords was born in the United States (of Zambian origin) and grew up in Switzerland. Since the age of 16, he cultivated his love for hip hop, the underground scene and explosive beats. "A world citizen rapper" is a good way to define the aesthetics of this artist who, through his texts and music, expresses his attachment to multiculturalism, diversity, and the world in general.
Rootwords performs live with The Block Notes(drums, bass, keyboards) and delivers an energetic and eclectic show.
