Ghost Style

Ghost Style

Ghost Style is a rapper/producer based in Hong Kong. He is credited with releasing the first English language rap album in Hong Kong ("Ghost Style's Alias", 2002). He followed up with two other English rap albums ("Supathugz' How Deep Is Yo Love" in 2004 and "Ghost Style's Message Is Complete", 2005).

Ghost Style started his career as the frontman for a Hong Kong local band called "Site Access." They are known for bringing out an original sound "Alternative Groove Funk". The band decided to take a break in 2003 and that's when Ghost Style started his solo career.

His first major work as rapper/producer was for Cantopop star Eason Chan. In 2001, Ghost Style was invited to remix one of Chan's songs for a remix project "Mixed Up". At the same time Ghost Style met international dance music producer Dan F (Disuye). At that time Dan F was creating breakbeat tracks and both collaborated on the remix. Dan F who won two Breakbeat Awards in the UK, would be Ghost Style's collaborator on 2002 release "Alias" and Ghost Style's 2005 release "Message Is Complete". Ghost Style was the voice talent in the 2005 movie soundtrack release "Initial D".

Ghost Style has formed a project label called Rebel Studio. The producer is giving back by supporting local talents and other urban events in Hong Kong. In Summer 2006, while out on the weekend Ghost Style bumped into Hong Kong actor/celebrity Conroy Chan. Conroy suggested to form a group consisting of six members; Eddie Chung (drum music), Brian Siswojo (designer for street fashion label Know1edge, 8five2 Shop owner), Kit & Phat (from Hong Kong legendary crew LMF), Ghost Style and himself. GS thought this would be a great collaboration and "24Herbs" was formed.

Since 2006, Ghost Style has been emmersed with 24Herbs. Ghost Style is both a rapper and one of the producers in the crew. Their album released on 24th January, 2008 at the Causeway Bay Delay No Mall Hong Kong. The strength of 24Herbs is their tight chemistry and willingness to go where commercial acts will not. Ghost Style helped pen hits such as "Superstar", "Jiu Jo" and "Chillin & Blazin".
