Scaramanga

Sir Menelik aka Cyclops 4000 aka Scaramanga was born in Manhattan in Lennox Hill. He began making a name for himself as Kool Keith's protégé in the early 90's. Often referred to as the "human computer", Menelik is responsible for reinventing the sound of hip-hop alongside Keith and then label mates Company Flow. This emcee/producer's hip-hop roots extended far deeper than this though, and Menelik claims to have been rhyming since '82. He even lived across the street from Biggie, and attended class alongside The Leaders of the New School back in the day. Founder of Sun Large Records / Star Of The Empire Management & Publishing.
