Gabriel Teodros

Gabriel Teodros (born 1981), is a hip hop artist and a member of the group Abyssinian Creole. He is of Ethiopian, Scottish, Irish & Native American descent, and was raised on Beacon Hill, Seattle, Washington. Teodros' music is determined by a social consciousness that tackles issues such as sexism, racism and homophobia, with constant references to his engagement towards the Third World issues, a.o. due to his Ethiopian background. He was a catalyst in the surge of dynamic underground rap acts from the Pacific Northwest during the mid- to late 2000s.
