Biography

Biography

Michael Jad Azkoul (*1990) lives and works in Geneva. Known by the stage name "Dr Koul", he is active as a rapper, poet, author, martial arts instructor and massage therapist. His most recent production was a book and album entitled "Prophet of Doubt".

Hailing from an international background (Lebanese-American and Anglo-Uruguayan), he has always considered himself a freethinker, passionate about pluridisciplinary approaches to what he perceives as universal themes.

Sometimes political, sometimes philosophical, Dr Koul's music combines "conscious" Hip Hop with jazz and traditional instrumentation, and he is most recognized as being one of the lead vocalists of Captains of the Imagination, a Geneva-based, English-speaking rap group.
