Hip-Hop/Rap
A.k.a. Rod Bailey Roddy Rod (2)
Raised in the prairie city of Winnipeg but now based in Vancouver, mcenroe (not, as the man himself puts it, to be confused with that "washed up tennis guy") offers a grainy, articulate and consistently provocative response to US alt.hip hop. In common with similarly predisposed countrymen Buck 65 and Sixtoo, mcenroe welds politically savvy, cliché-free rhymes to music whose bewitching sampledelic warp and weft is underpinned by a delirious retinue of skewed, raw but always mercilessly funky beats. No one trick pony, mcenroe is also the brains behind Vancouver's Peanuts & Corn Records label and is now established as a key player in the distribution and dissemination of hip hop across Canada.
