B.B.Z Darney is a Swedish “underground” beatmaker. The shortening in his name means “Boom Bappin’ Zombie”. The Boom Bap stands for the true Hip-Hop and the Zombie for the rugged flavours in his beats. He creates 90’s Hip-Hop styled beats in his own way with a mentality to bring up Original styles, new ideas and thought provoking sounds. He samples different vocals/talk sentences and put them on his productions to give them an acctual theme about anything from Hip-Hop to the universe that surrounds us.
What keeps B.B.Z. Darney inspirated and motivated to keep creating his art in these days and times is the love for true hiphop, which you never see on the radio these days. So his goal when creating beats is to help build up the true essence of Hip-Hop music in the little way he can, as well as just having fun and giving Hip-Hop heads out there something to drool about.
When B.B.Z. Darney is not creating beats he is often doing Graphic jobs as designing logos, often in a Graffiti type of style. He creates
album covers for various artist around the world. He recently designed the Album cover on a newly released underground Hip-Hop album by Emcee “uMaNg” entitled “Lasting Impressions”, where B.B.Z. Darney also stood for all the production work behind the beats.
That album can be reviewed here:

B.B.Z. Darney want’s to drop a big peace to all the peoples out there who have supported him through the years as well as peoples supporting true Hip-Hop, you know who you are!
