History
After gaining some recognition in local rap circles in Houston,Texas, and opening for notable acts like Ceschi and Zechs Marquise, Babel Fishh self-released his debut album, The Use Of Of, in 2005. He followed this by releasing a split LP with Minnesota rapper Astronautalis in 2006. These releases were followed by 3 self-financed European tours with Oskar Ohlson in 2008,2009, 2011, and 2012 (to support Howl Bender).
Style
Babel Fishh has been described as "less of an alley-hardened battle rapper and more of a geeky, deep-thinking street poet, with a touch of both sci-fi freak Mike Ladd and ex-Soul Coughing frontman/poet M. Doughty to the whole mess". His 2012 release, Howl Bender, was called "a masterpiece in terms of transfiguring pure emotion into a tangible, audible entity."
Name
His stage name [Bable Fishh] is in reference to the Bable Fish [a form of biological universal translator] from Douglas Adams' Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series (radio, novel, TV and film).
