Two Grammy Nominations: "Best Solo Rap Performance" and "Best Rap Album." Three Billboard Video Award Nominations: "Best New Artist," "Best Clip of the Year," and "Maximum Vision Clip of the Year." SKEELO was born in Chicago's (south side) IL, and moved to New York City in the late 70's. He was influenced by artist such as: (KRS-1, L.L. Cool J, Rakim, and Kurtis Blo); admiring their styles & technique. SKEELO moved to Los Angeles CA, in the mid 80's. His "I Wish" single, with a video that parodied Forrest Gump, became a huge hit on radio and MTV during the summer of 1995, and his identically titled debut album was released shortly thereafter earning him; 2 Grammy nominations for both album & single. Today, after being several years (M.I.A.); SKEELO resurfaces with a new exciting album titled; "Overdose." This project is more like SKEELO (Moch-3)! A mature sound from an evolved artist, an all star cast of producers & special features, toppled with the unique style of SKEELO’s song-writing. The album is said not to be the return of SKEELO, but rather the start of "SKEELO MUSIK" the Record label; with more artist/groups of all genres to follow.
