Paul Dateh is all stringed out

Yeah, it’s a terrible pun.  Which is unfortunate considering how dope Paul Dateh and his unique take on hip-hop are.  A classically trained violinist, Dateh attended Los Angeles’ Thornton School of Music where he was introduced to improvisational jazz and eventually hip-hop.  Check out the video to see his unique, but undeniably ill, take on a number of hip-hop classics by Tribe, J5 and Ghostface.
