About Socalled

Josh Dolgin, aka Socalled, is a Canadian rapper and producer, known for his eclectic mix of hip hop, klezmer and other styles, for example drum & bass and other types of folk music. A pianist and accordion player, he has taught the latter at Klezfest London, where he has also run workshops in "hiphopkele". He has played with clarinetist David Krakauer's Klezmer Madness!, and has also worked with artists such as rapper C-Rayz Walz, Chilly Gonzales, funk trombonist Fred Wesley, and Sophie Solomon. Dolgin's Socalled collective and guests recently celebrated the Jewish Festival of Lights with the seasonal concert "Hip Hop Hanukkah". He will be the principle subject of The "Socalled" Movie, an upcoming documentary by Garry Beitel for the National Film Board of Canada, which will also feature Krakauer and Wesley. This will feature footage of the "first Klezmer Cruise", in which a boatload of klezmer fans sailed down the Dneiper River in the Ukraine.
