ShoBiz – Reassured
Shola ‘ShoBiz’ Quadri writes;
I am an Irish hiphop artist/songwriter from Dublin. I recently released a video to my song, Reassured (above). I understand that the genre in which I’m involved in has seen some difficulties in regards to the public’s embrace compared to other genres but I believe that the sounds I have to offer could change that and create a pillar for the Irish hip hop scene on a large scale.
