Album Notes

Versify is:

1. To change from prose into metrical form.
2. To treat or tell in verse.
3. To write verses.
4. A Collaborative effort between the American rapper, Doctor Oscify from Fort Collins Colorado, and the German beat producer, Ulliversal, of Hamburg, to form the ultimate hip hop power house.

Bjorn Ullrich (ULLIVERSAL) has been an Producer/Musician since 1997. Ulliversal started as a guitar player for a german hip hop crew in 1997 called "Diebe Der Zeit." After the group broke up, Ulliversal formed a new Hip Hop crew, they began to play shows all over Germany,opening for acts such as Jeru the Damaja, as well as German local artists.
That crew also broke up so Ulliversal forged on, working with many artists abroad, including Doctor Oscify, Joe Fury and many more.

Doctor Oscify (born Leo Henry Fairbanks) was born in
Denver, Colorado. He grew up on Denver’s North Side and always had an affinity for music, At age 17, in 2002, Leo started a hip-hop crew with some high school friends called Mothers on Acid.Leo’s rap name at the time was the “Lyrical Miracle. They freestyled frequently, wrote songs and only recorded on a total of three occasions.

In 2005, Doctor Oscify started getting some notoriety for his skill and got on a few mixtapes and worked with tons of emcees and producers including the German beat maker Ulliversal with whom he would start a group called Versify. And the rest, is history.

The debut album of this legendary super group is the first major cd for New Ground Collabo Records. Filled with guest appearances from IMPROV, THE SECONDARY and the master emcee, KRS-1, this cd is sure to be one of the most talked about independent records of 2006.

Crazy as hell
author: ReZ
One of the best albums i've heard in a while. Ulliversal's beats are as inspiring as the are deep, and create a surreal musical landscape that enthralls. The Doctor's rhymes are on point too, he's definatly got a flow to him. A definate deep album and a buy for sure.

Something Different
author: Scratch Magazine July 2006 Issue
Ulliversal's instrumentation relies on a heavy layering of samples and a shocking level of talent on an MPC 2000. In the process, he manages to build instrumentals that feel like entire soundscapes. Hard hitting, and yet unabashedly emotional, Versify is easily the most refreshing independent album of the year.

They Call it Versify
author: Urb Magazine, August 2006
Versify keeps the listener fully engaged with a fundamental artistic honesty rarely seen in most hip-hop these days. With song topics ranging from political unrest, to depression, to braggadacio, to souring relationships, one can't help but to feel that he(she) is listenting to a piece of Doctor Oscify's diary when hearing this album. Versify is easily the most emotionally driven hip-hop album of the year.
