The foodchain
The foodchainPreparin Lunch'Seeing us live in comparison to listening to the records is a whole different experience. Three keyboards, a drummer, and four mc's. Until now, you've never seen that before. You've never heard the same sound, or felt this same emotion of music.'POSTED 04|24|2012
Phashara (Beatmonstas)
Phashara (Beatmonstas)Walks his Own Path''What ever happened to taking pride in the art of rhyme and the culture of hip-hop? Yeah I think we know the code but the game is corporate now and the only code they respect is big money.''POSTED 04|13|2012
Casanova Rud
Casanova RudStill Got Em Locked: Part One'Music had more soul in it then, since samples and loops oversaturated in hip-hop, taking the sounds of blues, funk, RnB and rock of old and making it new, creating the foundation of the Golden Era.'POSTED 04|10|2012
Cookbook
CookbookSmells Success'I started reading, really devouring books on success, and business principles, and I found out that success itself was a true passion of mine. I have a huge desire to achieve my goals, but even bigger than that, I want to see people reach their goals.'POSTED 04|10|2012
Rashid Hadee
Rashid HadeeBack On His Grind'I used Pinky Tuscadero more like a 'label' for the coolest girl in my eyes, being that she's the type I'm looking for and I'm cool as fuck just like The Fonz and I wear a leather jacket.'POSTED 03|21|2012
The Legion
The LegionStill Krill'It's really exciting to return to the hip-hop scene for our sophomore album. Consider it like going back to school. The structure and format will follow our raw path of beats and rhymes from the 'Theme Echo'-days.'POSTED 02|15|2012
King Magnetic
King MagneticEuropean Conquista'It'll be not just regular show energy but an authenticity that 99% of these rappers don't have. Might even learn something! Oh? And lot's of fun. Ladies, there's always an after party if my wife invites you! Don't be shy, we're not.'POSTED 02|07|2012
JMega
JMegaA True Master Of Ceremony'With the track ‘Game Of Death’, he was one of the highlight features on our latest mix CD. We're talkin about Los Angeles MC JMega, one third of the crew True Masterz. Solo and with his crew, Mega already released quite a lot of records –check Bandcamp! 'POSTED 01|31|2012
M-Dot
M-DotConnecting The Dots'We have this thing in EMS, where we always try and maximize everything. More than just how it sounds. Literally milk every cow. I learnt it at an early age with my mother taking me to yard sales every week, or picking chairs and couches out the trash. 'POSTED 01|25|2012
Doodlebug (Digable Planets) & Xing N Fox
Doodlebug (Digable Planets) & Xing N FoxRhythm Rebel And The New Bomb Squad'I believe that hip-hop still cares about politics and the economy but the powers that be don’t want to promote that so they only sign artists who will promote the lifestyle of consumerism and selfish agendas. The days that a group like Public Enemy will get played on a P1 radio station is probably over.'POSTED 01|20|2012
