VOODO FE’ LEON MATHELIER
With your own hands, you make yourself King.
Born and bred on Brooklyn soil, VOODE FE’ LEON MATHELIER has made himself a distinctive force in the worlds of entertainment, art, and fashion. Boasting a muscular frame with 16 body piercings and just about an equal number of custom and self-designed tattoos, his image is nothing short of unforgettable. Accomplished in the fields of music, visual arts, and fashion, Voodo’s work expresses energy as eclectic as his repertoire of talents.
A heavy hitter in the music arena, Voodo’s skills as a songwriter, producer, and performer firmly established him as a force to behold early on. In 1998, Voodo combined forces with Tarun Benson, The Mighty Quin, Ptah, and Simply Black to form Dark Theory. Renowned in underground hip hop circles for their dynamic live performances, Dark Theory rapidly gained prominence among their followers and music enthusiasts. However, despite the successful undertaking of flourishing college circuit tours and the group’s growing popularity, Dark Theory’s unsuccessful attempts to obtain solid support from major labels emphasized the group’s need to refocus. In 2002, Phoenix and the Shadow—the alternative hip hop project and brainchild of lyrical partners in crime, Voodo Fe’ and Tarun Benson—emerged to signify the group’s revitalized focus and rebirth. The group galvanized the underground hip hop scene with their electric performances and signature sound. Known for their raw lyrical content and fusion of aggressive Drum & Bass beats with edgy Rock riffs, sensual Reggae vocals, and alternative Hip Hop style, Phoenix and the Shadow quickly reinforced the strength of a preexisting loyal fan base. The 2005 release of their self-produced, self-titled album defied established music genres by introducing and coining their own versatile sound—“Trippy Star”.
From the inception of Dark Theory to present, Voodo has made it clear that he is no fleeting trend. Establishment of the Dark Theory Music Group in 2005 formalized Voodo’s already proven autonomy and ability to consistently advance the group’s progress. Self-production and independent release of Dark Theory’s single “Overtime” and Phoenix and the Shadow’s EP Different They Think (which reached #32 on the CMJ charts); the Untitled Mix CD (which included remakes of songs by artists like Norah Jones, Coldplay, and Korn); and the recent critically acclaimed, self-titled album (voted Album of the Month by Chicago’s Madd Radio in 2005), further demonstrate Voodo as a virtual juggernaut in alternative hip hop. In addition to receiving such accolades as the ASCAP Plus Award and being voted the Best Live Alternative Hip Hop Band by The Village Voice, these dynamic artists have opened for powerful acts such as Run DMC, Naughty By Nature, MeShell N’degeocello, and Arrested Development.
Currently, Voodo is working on his next, much anticipated solo album while continuing his endeavors with his art and fashion design. A typical musician Voodo is not. As a visual artist, his artwork has been featured in art galleries around the city and his fashion design portfolio boasts an impressive clientele such as Calvin Klein, South Pole, Avirex, G-Unit, Class Players, and Ecko.
