Cartes is a Dutch rapper. He was born in Den Bosch. He started to rap in 2000 and formed a group with 3 other MC's, some breakdancers and a DJ called Menjestic.In 2004 they all went their own way due to the fact that they had some (musical)differences.

Cartes went his own way from there and stopped studying in 2005 and decides to work on his music full-time,

which finally led to the final of the Grolsch Grote Prijs van Nederland (a big award show in The Netherlands for upcoming artists).

On 3th September he released the double-album '&' together with rapper Kleine Jay. This will be their last album together.
