Gruf began his hip-hop career as a member of a Winnipeg group called Twisted Spirits in the early 1990’s. This group evolved into the Frek Sho, and in 1995 they filmed a video for “Patience”, which entered rotation on Canada’s Muchmusic, a first for a Winnipeg hip-hop group.

His interest in health and counter-culture made his teaming with Pip Skid inevitable, and they formed Fermented Reptile in 1999. In 2001, he released “Druidry”, his solo debut.

He works with Canadian underground hip hop label run by McEnroe "Peanuts & Corn Records". Gruf is by far the most abstract rapper on the roster, commonly rapping about trees, plants, and animals. His name variations are Gruf Tha Druid or Gruff The Druid. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
