Biography
Tyronne Buddy-Lee Ike Hill a.k.a. Kid Bookie is a rapper/musician from South East London. He started his musical journey as a youngster playing guitar in a local band until years later when he heard loud angry noises coming from outside his window, which was actually the sound of local MC's cyphering with lyrics. He started creating music locally until he branched out and met fellow musician Dot Rotten where he introduced him to the nation by taking him on Tim Westwood's BBC 1 Xtra show when he was 16 years old. He received mixed reactions from his performance thus harbouring a drive to do better in the future. In 2009 he brought out his first mixtape entitled 'In The Making' which gained a lot of attention within the radio circuit allowing him to work with the more higher tier of MC's within the underground circuit.
