POD among others. He is renowed for his emo hiphop and his
sound is therefore sometimes percieved as dark. He works
with his crew under the name Shadow of the Locust. This is a
changing team of MC's. The Plague album (1998) is still the
must listen from this artist. DiRT collaborated with Nazir
and released an EP Broken Earth (2003). In 2005 he did a
tour in Brazil.
Home
The artist moved from Lemon Grove, California to San
Francisco in 2009.
Shadow of the locust
Shadow of the Locust was a vision given to Dirt in the mid
nineteen nineties, during the infancy of his career as a MC.
Inspired by Joel chapter 2 of the Bible. DiRT penned the
words that would be the mission statement known as the
Locust Papri, of a network of like-minded individuals who
strive for the same accord.
Crew
This everchanging crew added new members:
- Calmplex (2005)
- MC Noiz (2005)
On April 2nd, 2007 a new MC is announced who joins the
collective his name is: The Man Prefekt.
In the hole
In January 2006 his site Intheholehegoes.com went offline.
Jeremy chose to lay down the mic and concentrate on his
fellowship with God and his family. His struggles have been
many from financial to physical and a new record deal was
never signed. These hardships made him focus again towards
his career and his life.
Digital
In April 2006 his two albums Plague and A War To Restore
became available through iTunes.
Mixtapes
The 2007 album is supported with the release of a mixtape
"The Upsetter Mixtape" in October 2006, based on the shelved
record "Who Burnt Down The Studio?", that features
re-recorded tracks of DiRT's first two albums Plague and A
War To Restore and snippets from the new album Heavy
Manners.
New Album
DiRT released a new album entitled "Heavy Manners" on Syntax
Records in 2007. Heavy Manners is the product of four years
of recording prior to his sabbatical of the hip hop scene.
Postponed
The album was set to release in June 2007, but was postponed
until September to receive better distribution and promotion
through the Syntax Records network.
Solomon Cain
The MC is already working on another project with 80 Proof
the crew is called "Solomon Cain" On July 11th, 2007 DiRT
announces teaming up with 80 Proof in Arizona for the
recording of new tracks. The album is in it's final stages
in August 2008 and will be released through End of Earth
Records in late 2008 or early 2009.
New solo album
DiRT announced in August 2008 a new project entitled "Duppy
Conqueror". As the artist explains: "[A] solo album with
guests. It will be a themed album with all roots reggae
samples over breakbeats. Underground meets reggae style,
with my gritty flow over the top. The name 'duppy' is a
Jamaican word meaning "ghost or spirit". Duppy Conqueror
means that I fight in the spiritual."
Special Project
The rapper also considers a project named "When 2 Giants
Clash" this will be an album featuring both DiRT and
7Lock.
