Hamza
Founder and Editor-in-Chief of Mic Cheque. I’ve been writing since 2017 to deliver UK rap the literary treatment it deserves. My main goal has been to write quality album reviews for the UK scene that mainstream publications neglect. Rap fanatic since the age of 11 regardless of subgenre, whether it’s 90s boom bap or modern trap. My favourite rapper is Nas and Lowkey’s Soundtrack to the Struggle is the most overlooked UK rap album of all-time.

I’m currently in college pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Marketing. A proud Latino who has a deep passion for writing and a bigger love for the hip hop culture. My favourite rapper is Jay-Z and Dipset is the best hip hop group of all time.
