King Shampz is an emcee from West Philly. Along with his brother, and producer, Azzan, Shampz founded Dead Wrong Records. The label is filled with other talented artists who share a similar aesthetic with Shampz--a gritty sample-based sound with extensive wordplay and reflective braggadocio lyrics.

We spoke to King Shampz over a year ago about many topics including: his music relationship with his brother, Azzan, visiting Mecca and Egypt during his formative years (and eating camel burgers), how African Americans are perceived in Egypt, Philly’s hip-hop legacy, and much more!
