IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO KNOWW OF HTESE EVENTS - JOIN OUR LIST!
French writer, poet and emcee John Banzaï, best known for his brilliant work with Les Nubians, including the new track "Veuillez Veiller Sur Vos Rêves", is on his way back to New York to fulfill another dream.... the release of his debut album Loverdose. 

Banzaï's smooth, poetic, FrancoPhonetic flow flirts with your intellect, while producer DaVido's slick, sexy, jazzy beats entice the true school hip hop lover in all of us. Loverdose is a stimulating adventure in sound and lyrical imagination and pre-scribes a comprehensive remedy for a LOVE REVIVAL in the 21st Century and beyond.

Banzaï's style is versatile. He delivers spoken word and rap styles over smooth, jazzy atmospheric urban beats. His ensemble consists of bass, keys, and drums. A class act.
