Josh Martinez has been serving up the scorching hot heat since his early days as an arsonist. Having given up crime, Josh turned to organized religion, and set out to convert the unwashed masses. Having found that the masses were in fact already washed, Josh turned to rap music as an excuse to kiss girls and get free beer. It seems to have worked, as the name Josh Martinez is now synonymous with both loose women and cheap beer.

Josh Martinez has burst onto the scene with humor, wit and an infectious delivery that has his songs stuck in your head for weeks. Martinez’ first release, the DJ Moves produced Maximum Wellbeing EP, blew the collective conscious with the epic track “Deny”. A five beat, ten minute opus about a soldier forced to revisit the Holocaust, “Deny” won 1998’s Independent Song of the Year from CBC’s Brave NewWaves.

His next release, Josh Martinez & the Hooded Fang, was awarded 5 mics by Source Online and showcased production and rhyme help from Halifax’s finest. This self-released gem moved Vice Magazine to comment, “Josh takes on more subject matter in one song than most rappers do in their entire careers.” As interest in his recordings grew, Josh decided to start his own record label, Low Pressure Records, a Vancouver based label co-owned by DJ Moves and Rhekone.

Was he really an arsonist or is that statement part of the humorous manner the bio was written in? :)

How many versions of Buck Up Princess are there? There's the one where the last song is Munks Inna Bunker and the one where it is Another Dollar. And isn't there are version with re-recorded vocals with a more singing voice? Where could I find that?

Listen to “Deny” on the “Made In China” Album! It is one of the most prolific and deep tracks I have ever heard.
