Featured Artist - Alcee

Alcee has sign signed to Trend Records (April 2012)

Born into a musical background, (Alcee’s grandfather was a well-known artist in Zimbabwe),he got his first flavour of music when he joined the school choir in primary 6. However it was not until upon moving to the UK in 1999 that he truly took his interest further and got involved in different musical projects.

Alcee initially started getting into music through a local community programme (Tillydrone Project) to assist kids after school that were interested in playing instruments, singing, rapping, or learning to compose a beat. It was through this that Alcee found his true passion for making music and he began working on his own materials and writing lyrics.

As a producer, singer/rapper, songwriter and composer, Alcee has been musically influenced by the whole movement of R'n'B, hip hop and African blend and when growing up, looked up to artists such as Jayz, Usher and Ladysmith Black Mambaza - he still aspires to be as successful as they are today – with their talent, dedication and consistency. Without these examples, he wouldn't have the same passion for what he does today.

The diversity and dynamics of music inspires Alcee in that it is an avenue to express oneself, tell a story and bring together culture with poetry and song.
Alcee aspires to write songs that make people feel good with a strong African, hip hop and R'n'B influence as well as keeping things commercially current with a lyrical focus on love, life and what is happening in the world. “Music is a universal thing and I like to think that what makes mine different is that it’s dynamic, unique and can reach out to people - striking a common chord amongst us.” - Alcee
