Today Juno-award winning Toronto rapper, globally recognized celebrity chef, restaurateur, author and star of popular Food Network and Cooking Channel shows Man Fire Food, Everyday Exotic and Heat Seekers ROGER MOOKING releases his sixth rap album titled "SOUNDBITES" along with his new visual from the project "I Can't Stand."
Roger Mooking, a globally renowned celebrity chef, has built a culinary empire that stretches across North America, encompassing restaurants, television appearances, and bestselling books. However, his journey as a multi-talented artist began in the realm of groundbreaking rap, where he left an indelible mark on Canada's contemporary Hip Hop scene. Roger was not only a solo artist but also a founding member of groups such as Maximum Definitive and Bass is Base. Born in Trinidad and raised in Canada, this Hip Hop lyricist has an impressive discography, including five albums and the distinction of winning a Juno award along with receiving Juno award nominations.
In honor of the 50th anniversary of Hip Hop, Roger has unveiled his latest masterpiece, "SOUNDBITES," his sixth studio album. This musical creation draws inspiration from the astonishing fact that the average human attention span is a mere 8.25 seconds. "SOUNDBITES" serves as a lyrical opus, featuring fleeting tracks that celebrate the essence of music, community, creativity, chaos, and delve into how time influences and defines our world, particularly from the perspective of the Black community. The album is structured into three distinct parts, mirroring the phases of life: the Learning, the Living, and the Leaving. Moreover, "SOUNDBITES" serves as the captivating soundtrack to Roger's upcoming book, "Curious Sounds: A Dialogue in Three Movements," scheduled for release on Tuesday, October 24th.
