  • The Hempolics, fronted by Grippa (the band’s producer and engineer), are a close-knit, family-like group that includes vocalist Nubiya Brandon and vocalist/melodica player Dandelion, along with other key members like Ed West on drums, Leon on guitar, and best friends who have come together to form a unique reggae, dub, soul, and hip hop fusion.

    Known for a genre-jumping yet cohesive sound, The Hempolics celebrate love, connection, and social themes through infectious rhythms, rich harmonies, and emotive lyrics.
