Known for his recognisable delivery and larger-than-life personality, Busta Rhymes is one of the most inspirational rappers to emerge from the East Coast scene, touting a style that blends incredible complexity and inventiveness with halting ragga style delivery and a tongue in cheek sense of humour.
The stand-out star of New York party rap ensemble Leaders Of New School, Rhymes struck out on his own with the 1996 hit 'Woo-Hah Got You All In Check'.
Collaborations with Mariah Carey, P Diddy and The Pussy Cat Dolls followed alongside 8 studio albums( of which, 6 have gone platinum), roles in several high-profile films and an arrest for drink driving.
