The Journey of EJ von Lyrik
by DJ Azuhl
EJ von LYRIK hails from Mitchell’s Plain on the CapeFlats and she has been writing and performing her own material ever since she started working on music as a career in 1997.
Having a distinct interest in music production, she started producing her own instrumentals in 2001. Her music is an eclectic mix of funk, rock, dancehall, hip hop and roots reggae. She is a strong advocate for human upliftment and inspiration through the medium of music and therefore her music carries positive messages in her lyrics.
EJ von Lyrik feels the reason for this cross-over of musical genres is to reach out to a more diverse audience because the music is message orientated.She has performed on various international stages as well as collaborating with some hefty names in the music industry, and was a member of the (now disbanded) legendary, female hip hop group Godessa. This is a collection of her work spanning 20 years before she releases her third solo album.
