        Artist Bio

Machette VanHelsing, born in the Bronx, was raised and grew up in South Jamaica Queens, New York. This underground veteran has been battling, performing and recording for over two decades and has seen the best and worst of the music business and the hip hop culture first hand. The name 'Machette VanHelsing' haunts the entire Hip Hop culture because although he is a very private man, most people remember him... or someone they know does. His past and experience in the rap game is long and impressive. His lyrics and music speaks for itself and it is easy to tell that he has mastered his craft.

 

Machette started recording in the year 1998 and in 2000, the phones were ringing off the hook with deals, proposals and interviews.

" I went to the offices of some of the hottest labels at the time and EVERY TIME I looked a music executive in the eyes, something was wrong. Not only that but I could strongly sense evil on top of NOTICING strange behaviors and mannerisms. My business partner, friends and family thought I was crazy for turning deals down but... I MADE A U-TURN! " 


In the following years Machette released a number of mix tapes and independent albums that did well on the streets and now he is back with his new mix tape "REVELATIONS 0:0" and "AUDACITY The Album". Both projects have hip hop fans, DJs, producers and entrepreneurs WIDE AWAKE and paying full attention to this surprise attack  that is taking the world by storm. Does Hip Hop have a new hero? You'll have to check that out for yourself!

EXTRA CREDITS

In the year 2000, Machette VanHelsing broke records and club protocol when he convinced the staff at the legendary CBGB Rock club to debut a Hip Hop show! At the time, Machette and his ex business partner were running an independent record label called "Assassin Recordz". After contacting the owners of the venue and sending samples of Machette's music along with the music of their top artists, the first Hip Hop show ever happened in CBGB... AND MACHETTE & FRIENDS TORE IT DOWN!

​

" All I know is that at the time, CBGB didn't allow rap acts to perform in their club and it was an honor to sound good enough for them to make an exception with me. I ALSO don't know if they allowed more hip hop shows at their club after that or if I actually paved the way for rappers to perform there. What I DO KNOW is that I KICKED ASS THAT NIGHT!" ~Machette VanHelsing~

Indie Movie Soundtrack Feature

Movie: Interrogation Room 109

                             SOUNDTRACK FEATURE

​

In 2015, Machette released his hit singles "I SHOTDABOOGEYMAN" and "ROCKSTARZ" to see if he could break the mainstream barriers if he so chose. The mission was a success as he caught the ears of indie movie director Anthony Malachi and negotiations were immediately on the table for getting Machette's music on the soundtrack in the independent movie "Interrogation Room 109". The movie is still doing well on the indie circuit and Machette's music compliments the movie perfectly. We will definitely hear more of Machette's music in movie's and other collaborative media.
