Biography

Roachee is an MC and former member of Roll Deep, having joined the collective in late 2004 although in 2005 Chantelle Fiddy referred to him as a member of Bomb Squad.When he left is uncertain but it was while he was in prison and probably at the same time his cousin Trim left the collective. Like Trim, Roachee is close to Ruff Sqwad members.

Roachee is responsible for possibly Roll Deep's most famous grime song When I'm 'Ere. Roachee appears on the opening and closing verses of the song. Although he has relatively few lyrics, Roachee is well liked amongst grime fans for his agressive bars.

Since his release from prison in the latter half of 2008 Roachee has apparently recorded tracks with Trim and Lee Brasco and is apparently working on a project with Skepta and Desperado. Roachee appeared on a remix to Tinchy Stryder's track "Rollin'" produced by Maniac.
