Majestic (real name Kevin Christie) started out as an MC performing on the North London nightclub circuit at just fifteen years of age. He rapidly broke through onto the Garage pirate radio stations and forums gaining instant recognition, and was subsequently snapped up by international promoters to perform tours of Switzerland, Netherlands, Germany and Russia. Majestic has since crossed into a multitude of dance music genres from UK Garage to House to Drum & Bass and Dubstep performing with leading artists across the scene such as EZ, Dream Teem, Agent X, MJ Cole, Judge Jules, Micky Slim, Jack Beats , Laidback Luke, The Wideboys, Netsky, High Contrast, Loadstar, Shy FX Skream, Bar9, Nero and Jacob Plant to name a few.
As well as a legendary MC known for being risqué in spreading his word, Majestic is also making waves as an artist in his own right. His single “In The VIP” written and produced with the Wideboys that took a satirical look at the VIP Club culture, was released on Skint Records. After receiving serious hits on YouTube and Radio Support from Mistajam, Target, Kissy Sell Out and Steve Smart on heavy rotation, the record also made its way onto the MOS Bass Culture annual.
Majestic’s lyrical flow then caught the eye of American Dubstep superstar Skrillex who sampled Majestics legendary, almost anthemic, “Ruffneck Bass” spit for his latest massive single of the same title, played by the worlds biggest DJs.
Majestic’s character can be witnessed both on and off the mic from his tongue-in-cheek tour videos, his spoof radio show “Caravan FM” to his legendary storyboard production videos, this guy is a comedy genius. One example being his notorious Safe Sex rap brought to life with a witty short film and performed across summer resorts receiving cult status. His rhyme and spits drives home his message in a direct and risqué way that gains instant empathy with his crowd… he talks their language, guaranteeing viral adoration and gaining him a hardcore fan base.
Having recently signed up to be dubstep wonderkid, Jacob Plant’s official hype man. Majestic has been in the studio collaborating on a number of cutting edge tracks they intend to PA live at their shows. They have already performed for massive student brand Under The Radar on their tour dates up and down the country, as well as for Fresher’s events at all the leading Universities in the UK. Plus having just wowed the crowd at Brighton’s Shakedown festival performing on the main stage in front of 8000 revellers, in-between Razorlight and Example, they are certainly heading for superstar status!
So Its no wonder Majestic is in demand to perform Live, with Mistajam quoting Majestic as being the “best live MC in the game” after requesting him to perform alongside him at Exit festival in Serbia and Eddie Temple Morris bringing him onboard The Big Reunion Shows this winter not to mention continuing tours with The Wideboys, the hype has only just begun.
So with the Majestic message travelling fast, hyping the crowd into a frenzy Majestic takes on the role of grand puppeteer, from waiving lighters in the air to chanting back at the DJ his commands are dutifully followed and quite a sight to behold.
