MC Mota (BE)

In only a few years, Belgium-based lyrical bazooka MC Mota has become a steady and welcomed stage presence at all the best bass-gatherings throughout the country and abroad.

There he already provided lyrical support for the likes of hundreds of national and international artists including Andy C, Netsky, Sigma, Camo & Krooked and Dub FX. As a Rampage, Liquicity and M&T resident, Mota crafted his lyrical genius and stage act. Therefore he knows perfectly how to tame massive mainstage crowds of up to 40,000 heads. Igniting them with his deep ragga flows, energetic freestyle spitting sessions and soulful singing, while always keeping in mind not to overshadow the DJ, but merely building a bridge between basshead and selecta.

For 3 years in a row since 2014 Mota has also been nominated for several Drum&BassArena Awards in categories like 'Best MC’ and 'Best track of the year’.
