MADSINMUSICK

Madsin, a.k.a. Belgium’s Richie Vandamme, is the purest breed of hiphop artist we can think of: raw, genuine, powerful, charismatic and always – always – original.

Never before has a moniker been more appropriately chosen, as Madsin’s songs sound exactly like his name seems to suggest: thumping beats, interesting arrangements and crazy lyrics, often dealing with madness, violence and the depravity of our own society and global politics. Hearing a Madsin song means getting pummeled by its pure ‘old skool’ power,
Madsin is also known for his powerful live performances, which invariably turn out to be the highlight of the evening.

Richie Vandamme claims his Madsin persona is an outlet for the rage he feels in real life – rage he wouldn’t know how to channel otherwise. And when we’re listening to his music, who are we to disagree?
