About

A Brooklyn emcee and member of the Gang Starr Foundation, Afu-Ra got his start alongside Jeru the Damaja on "Mental Stamina" off Jeru's first album. Sporting a quick-tongued flow and advanced, intellectual lyrics, he released his solo debut Body of the Life Force in 2000. Executive produced by the one-and-only DJ Premier, the record introduced Afu to a wider audience, won rave reviews from heads worldwide, and also featured collabos with GZA, the Cocoa Bz, and M.O.P.
