Addek (born 5 June 1980) is an American rapper, producer, songwriter, and independent label founder. Addek was briefly a member of the rap duo, The Elite, producing two studio albums with rapper Eajae in collaboration with Embassy Records before releasing his solo debut album *Hip Hop 9/11*[1] under his own label RealityHipHop.com. Addek grew a sizable fan base and critical acclaim in the Tampa Bay music scene with the song "Critikal Timez" which received regular airplay on 88.5 WMNF[2] as the opening song for the talk show *Critical Times* by Mabili Ajani. Addek and Eajae performed regularly[3] when they were actively collaborating and producing music before their eventual split in late 2005. Addek also produced music for the political documentary *Aftershock*.[4][5]
Addek continues to produce and release music and is working on an upcoming electronic music album.
