Busdriver, whose birth name is Regan Farquhar, is an underground MC hailing from Los Angeles. He is known for his rapid-fire, jazzy, free-association style of hip-hop.
Busdriver released his first of many albums, ‘Memoirs of the Elephant Man’, in 2001, followed by ‘This Machine Kills Fashion Tips’ and ‘Temporary Forever’ in 2002. And in 2003 Busdriver collaborated with fellow underground musicians Radioinactive and Daedelus to create the LP, ‘The Weather’.
In 2005, Farquhar also became a “Corn Ganggster”, rapping with Nick Diamonds and J’aime Tambeur…this offshoot project of The Unicorns goes by the moniker, Th’ Corn Gangg.
Busdriver recently released his latest album ‘Jhelli Beam’, via Epitaph Records and had a little help from LA producers like, Elvin “Nobody” Estella, Daedelus, Free the Robots, and Nosaj Thing. I haven’t listen to the album in its entirety, just a few tracks but after doing some blog scavenging it looks as if ‘Jhelli Beam’ has gotten mixed reviews.
