Hailing from Shaolin, Samurai Shareef started his music journey with teaching and mastering the Serato boards. Hosting DJ shows all throughout southern California while still in high school, Shareef opened his community to a new age of music. On top of DJing, Shareef started to dive into creating his own material, with writing and producing, by blending alternative hip hop with new experimental sounds. His work contains production credits on Adam Shaolin's album "Rager" (2018) and performs on his label's project "Summer In Shaolin" (2022). Shareef just introduced his newest single "Sneaky Summers" (2023).
