Danny Blaze & The Kayz are cousins raised primarily in Tottenham North London.
They started making music from as early as seven years old and have gone from strength to strength taking seperate paths until they came together again to form Eloheem Enterprise.
Danny Blaze aka ‘Brasco Da Don’ is a rapper/producer/writer/director/actor…
He formed a group called ‘Soul Mafia’ at the tender age of twelve along with four other boys and a manager. They made a combination of hip-hop/RnB and dancehall, doing shows around London, but due to in house conflict they broke up.
Blaze continued solo and went around battling M. C.s while becoming a sound engineer and working with several up and coming artists and producers.
He teamed up with an independent record label and an acoustic singer called Jo G. doing shows around the U.K.
Contract differences ended the alliance and once again Blaze went solo on another label working on an album called ‘New Style’. The Kayz featured on some of the tracks along with a few other artists. The label went bust and the album never got finished but several tracks got released underground creating a buzz on the streets.
Danny Blaze has released a mix C.D. called ‘Danny Brasco Da Don Blaze’ which is still selling and has featured on several other artists C.D.s and compilations.
Danny Blaze & The Kayz formed Eloheem Enterprise combining both of their respective talents and vision.
Eloheem Enterprise is a creative outlet for many things such as music, prose, literature, scripts, materials and design.
But the most important thing is ‘bringing back a future for the children and community’.
The latest project is ‘The 8th Wonder’ an urban fusion of music which can only be described as ‘something for everyone’ featuring some of the best artists out of North London.
They do works alongside many community groups and tries to ‘bridge that gap between the older heads and the youth’.
The Kayz / Kareen
Kayz/Kareen have always written poetry/lyrics from my first memories, but she actually began singing publicly with my God-mother Toyin Adekale,
in such places like Duggies and Shady Groves back in the day, doing a few special appearances at the age of 5.
Later on in life she moved to the U.S.A where church had a great musical influence on me.
She loved the way the Afro Americans sang with such soul, depth and feeling, and wanted to fashion herself after some of these fabulous singers she came across.
Coming back to London in my teenaged years, she clearly remembers her cousin Danny Blaze (Brasco) and his mates huddled in his room around a microphone and the karaoke machine making tunes on a regular basis. It was not long after that we decided to begin working together in the music.
Apart from singing she runs a company called Blairs flare which is primarily focussed on the upliftment of the African community.
As an artist she enjoy beautifying people and things, she felt compelled to try and raise the personal standards/confidence of Africans here, reminding them that they have all rights to be anywhere on the planet and feel good about themselves and your culture.
African styled clothing, jewellery, wooden crafts and interior design are a few things she offers on the site, as well as access to health information/services and life coaching.
Kayz/Kareen plays an active roll in her community and is on a road of self discovery and development as she believes that this is the only way that we [Africans] as a people will progress…
Self realisation and restoration, then comes the further unity and organisation we require.
Kayz/Kareen describes herself as a people loving person [all people].However she does believe in nation first, and as no other nation faces what we[Africans] face. She feels it is imperative for herself and us to focus as much of our energies into the betterment of our situation globally.
