/EN/ OK Cobra is the alternative/indie rap duo of Fritz tha Cat (vocals) and RecordFace (production). Originally from London, Canada best friends in Junior High - they hooked up ten years later in Montreal to record their self-titled debut album, a collection of emotional and philosophical lyrics with beats crafted from a diverse library of musical influences. Everything from DJ Shadow to Suicidal Tendencies, Public Enemy to Cat Stevens, Deep Purple to The Pharcyde.
Fritz tha Cat is an indie/underground hip-hop legend, a renaissance man who's worn many hats, including Vice Magazine rap columnist, Universal Music A&R man, TV show host, and has recorded with various artists including DJ Moves (LEN), Moka Only, and Buck 65. RecordFace runs a production studio in Montreal, works with the National Film Board, and was a founding member of Montreal-based indie-math-rock band Jane.Fon.Dorb.
OK Cobra's self-titled debut album topped the college radio charts in Canada in 2006, spending over a month at #1 while they toured nationally, having opened for the likes of Aceyalone, Blackalicious, Hieroglyphics, Devin the Dude, Styles of Beyond, and Divine Styler.
Spring 2007 saw OK Cobra touring with DJ Vadim in Germany, as well as completing several remixes and recording their new album, scheduled for release in late-summer/early fall 2007.
