Antithesis was born in South London, on 28th March 1983. Music was in the family, his father had been a songwriter in his youth and his mother was a keen folk dancer. At a young age, he took an interest in the new music phenomenon that was penetrating the pop charts - rap.

By the time he was 15 Antithesis had started writing short raps of his own. He began to receive some positive feedback and this spurred him on. When he was 18 Antithesis decided to enter a song contest. The song performed had to be original lyrics and music, and had to be on a theme related to Judaism or Israel. Antithesis spent many hours with his producer 'Tha Baron' (aka Wolllace) and came up with 'Just Peace'. He came third in the competition but feedback from the judges told him that although they felt he had deserved to win on merit they wanted something that sounded a bit more commercial. Therefore despite the knock-back he was encouraged and more positive feedback from the audience at what was his first live performance made him realise that it was worth continuing.

After school Antithesis took a gap year in Israel, taking part in the Machon L'Madrichei Chul programme. In the summer before going, he had heard Chaim Avraham, father of one of Israel's Missing in Action soldiers, speak in London, and had been very moved. In Israel he heard him speak again and resolved to write a song about the soldiers' situation in an attempt to raise the profile of the cause. The excuse to write it came when there was a talent show at the Machon and Antithesis wrote and performed 'Ima Mechaka Babayit'. The response was extremely positive and he was persuaded to take part in a larger talent contest the following week. Antithesis won the competition and one of the members in the audience introduced him to Chaim Avraham as a result.

When Mr Avraham heard about the song, he instructed Antithesis to record it so it could be released and sold for charity, and as a result Antithesis paid his first visit to the studio. Accompanied by musicians Neil and Teddy, he recorded Ima Mechaka Babayit in one of Jerusalem's top studios. The song was a hit and saw radio play in Israel and England, in addition to exposure in the British and Israeli press. It was distributed independently on a small scale in England and sold very well.

Back in England, Antithesis took up his place to read Oriental Studies at the University of Cambridge. He continued writing, and in his first term wrote 'Take a Minute', amongst other tracks. He tried to get funding to go back to the studio but found it difficult to secure support due to the unusual nature of the project. As a result in June of 2003 he decided to take things into his own hands and record the 'The Israel Question' EP, which went on sale at the end of the year with all profits going to charity. As of mid-2007 over 1200 copies had been sold with over £3000 going to charity.

Antithesis continued to write while at university but time for music was limited because of the demands of his course and other commitments; he was president of the Jewish Society and later the Israel Society, was heavily involved in the Federation of Zionist Youth (FZY) and founded the UK's first Israeli music radio programme, Kol Cambridge, which was nominated for a BBC Student Radio Award. Of all the songs written during his time at university only 'Ivrit, Daber Ivrit' was recorded (in late 2004). However during this time Antithesis gigged all over the UK, as well as in Israel and the US, and was featured on the radio in Germany, Canada and France in addition to the aforementioned countries.

On graduating from Cambridge with a 1st Class degree Antithesis assumed the position of Mazkir (Executive Director) of the Federation of Zionist Youth, a full-time elected paid position. Just before starting the role the Second Lebanon War began and in response he recorded Ima Mechaka BaBayit Part II' and 'Yes to Peace, No to Terror'. However it was not until finishing his term as mazkir that Antithesis managed to return to the studio to complete his second EP, 'United Kingdom of Racism'. Due for release at the end of 2007, it is hoped that this new record will equal if not better the money that 'The Israel Question' has raised for charity.
