Biografie
Erik aka Censi Rock was born in the city of Alkmaar, Netherlands on 21st January 1991. His musical career started at the young age of 7 where he sang in the church choir that he attended with his family.
During that time Censi was captivated and inspired by his neighbor who was African and a Rastaman. He enjoyed the melodic beat of reggae music, which had a profound effect on him and was later to define his own musical genre as an adult.
What further consolidated this style of music for Censi was when he had the opportunity to write some songs for a well-known Reggae band based in Amsterdam.
Censi later wrote 2 songs called Babylon and No War, which lead to a collaboration with Area 026 Music culminating in his first album called First Delivery released in 2014.
Censi has proven that he is a notable reggae singer with immense potential within the local and international reggae scene.
Censi has spent the past 2 years working closely with well know Dutch reggae producer and reggae drummer Freddy Poncin and together will be releasing his debut CD early 2019.
