See more information on Chickaboo below!!!
MC Chickaboo, the award winning UK’s number one female MC, started out in Birmingham in 1992 with GE Real working the big raves such as Fantasia, Dreamscape and Jungle Fever! Whilst working in the Drum&Bass scene Chickaboo MC’d with some of the best DJS around, including DJ Dazee, DJ Craze, Jumpin Jack Frost, DJ Storm, DJ Bailey, Goldie and the legendary Afrika Bambaata to mention only a few.
Never one to stay settled in her comfort zone, and having the lyrical talent to MC to a spectrum of musical sounds, Chickaboo exploded into the BreakBeat scene and before long was working with top producers and DJs alike including Timo Maas, Rennie Pilgrem and SuperStyle Deluxe to name but a few. She is the front person for Rennie Pilgrem’s band TCR Allstars smashing the arenas at plenty of festivals and clubs including Glade, Glastonbury and Fabric. In fact it was with Rennie Pilgrem and BLIM she won the best song at Breakspoll 2006.
She has written, performed and recorded vocals for many groundbreaking producers including: Timo Maas (hitting number 1 of MTV UK Charts and USA No 1 Billboard charts), Rennie Pilgrem, DJ Friendly, General Midi, Suda (Faithless), Bitches Brew, Jeans Jacques Smoothie, Stabilizer, Superstyle Deluxe and BLIM (the full released discography is below).
In 2004 MC Chickaboo started working with the original Funky Dred Jazzie B OBE and regularly tours with the Soul II Soul Sound System, which includes festivals, intimate parties, corporate events and the Back II Life festival in Antigua.
In 2006 her three year residency at Bastard Batty Bass began in East London (at The Star of Bethnal Green) and through this came countless bookings around at festivals and clubs with the other two ‘Wise Batty Bitches’ – AKA Hannah Holland and Mama.
She currently runs her own party Tatty Bogle which took over from the Batty Bass parties at The Star of Bethnal Green in East London, on the first Thursday of every month. A funky party which delivers equal measures of funk and craziness! Chickaboo’s aim was to start a night which was like ‘a house party but in a bar / club – a cool crowd of people – a comfortable vibe – where you don’t have to clean up afterwards!’. Resident DJs Miss Bailey and Deboa are supported with special guests so far including DJ Flore, DJ Flight and Live PA Performance Project Caramel and of course Chickaboo steps onto the mic during the night to kick the party into full swing with her lyrical madness!
