Abdominal, real name, Andy Bernstein, is a Jewish rapper from Toronto, Canada. Abdominal distinguishes himself from mainstream rap through the subjects he raps about. Instead of rapping about fast cars, guns, etc. - possessions more regularly associated with hip hop. Abdominal , or Abs, raps about a diverse range of subjects: fast food; being a bike courier; relationships and people jumping queues.
