◭ DESCRIPTION:
___________________________________
bill e-fluid (billy fluid) aka the core member of 4ormul◭fourfour/BUMP (Boil Up Mafia Posse) is as diverse as any artist south of the equator. From emceeing and beatboxing, producing music to also being a budding amateur director, he is a one man gang. In 2012, and with the aid of a few talented friends, bill intends to put his mark on the World. With the intention to try and save it from itself.
Growing up Maori and half English and surrounded by nature, without running water until the age of 16 he is a survivor. Beginning to 'free style' poetry on the streets of Waiheke since around 6 as a way to vent, he is also definatley an individual, with a well rounded opinion and outlook on life. Once introduced to his alter-native-world it is hard to look away.
