Akira the Don is part of the ever-bubbling UK underground scene. Rapper, producer and remixer, he is particularly eclectic. His references range from Chris de Burgh to Wu Tang Clan, while his music is more inspired by a rap version of Marilyn Manson. Akira the Don is a whimsical character with a reasonably excessive ego, and a self-proclaimed workaholic. His 2006 debut album When We Were Young turns out to be far less varied than Akira the Don's discourse would suggest.
