Kalakuta Kid (Nico Panoramix) Nico ''Panoramix '' Shanghai *La Soulerie* Eclectic Beats / Organic Grooves / Roots music / Cultural Vibrations Broadcasting from Shanghai Born in the freshly independant Kalakuta Republic around the same time his brother Hip-Hop was given birth in New-York, Kalakuta Kid learned how to walk in rhythm and harmony through the infernal go-slows of Lagos. During his childhood, living the High-Life in the Motherland, he used to receive regular and inspiring news from his american brother who was established at Uncle Sam's mansion. Nevertheless, one gloomy day, some rumors brought by a western wind tended to suggest that Hip Hop was dead and buried. Hesitating for a while to leave on his own his young and orphan cousin Ethio Jazz, he finally barked in a slave ship for an epic journey through the Atlantic. After few weeks of deportation, he finally reached a weird island that he believed was the american continent. Therefore, the Kid was indeed very pessimistic about his chances to track down his supposedly dead brother. And when precisely when he had almost lost himself in the arms of this mysterious indigeneous named Mary-Jane that a prophecy came up out of a rastafarian ceremony. The preacher of the community, known as daddy Reggae, had this reminiscent vision of himself, preaching to the young Hip-Hop in the streets of the Bronx. He could also be absolutely affirmative that Hip-Hop was alive. Before realizing what was actually happening, the Kid was pushed by Mr Garvey himself into a Black Star Line ship on the shore of a place refered as New-Orleans. There he met the noble Sir Swing and his brave fellows named Rag and Blue Grass. One night, in a sketchie bootleg, Sir Swing confessed that Hip Hop was a student of his in Harlem. Right away, the Kid started his terrestrial quest . Cutting through the cotton fields, sleeping in the Bayou and feeding himself with those Strange Fruits, he could find almost anywhere in those lands, he even swam in the Mississipi river on the banks of which he happened to meet the old sad Mr Blues who tell him an obscure story about 40 acres and a mule... Out of breath, The Kid left the august grand pa behind him and made it to Detroit where a glamorous lady called Soul was said to be able to help him out making his way to Hip Hop. She actually had an "affair" with Hip Hop few decades ago and said to the Kid she would drive him to Brooklyn where she used to share a flat with him. And so they headed to the Big Apple in a few days (after a few stops in various sordid motels... Soul finally left the Kid few blocks away from the famous flat. The Kid freneticly rang the bell. A tall nervous dude opened the door. He introduced himself as Brother Funk, pretending behind opaque sunglasses that he used to be Hip Hop's landlord but kicked him out for not paying his rent on time. He added he presumed Hip Hop had started a new life in California and slamed the door. After that, no need to say that The Kid was very anxious at the idea of Hip Hop hanging around with those psychotic cousins of Compton. No need to say more, this might have confirmed Hip-Hop was dead. Rocking his Adidas, he jumped in vain to LA and from there to San Francisco. Ultimately, his investigation took him to Washington Square where he found Hip Hop on a bench, sharing a bottle of Chardonnay and talking metaphysical shit with a Beat. After few hesitations they recognized each other and huged for a while in a sound of silence. "Hip Hop is a hipster now" might have thought the Kid but he was alive, and that was all that mattered to him.
