Zumbi & The Grouch

IMAKEMADBEATS
IMAKEMADBEATSBreakfast with IMAKEMADBEATS'Recently I've come to appreciate the benefits of working within 10 minutes of opening my eyes in the morning. There's a special creativity that comes from using your brain for music before it has to process 9,040 other things...'POSTED 02|18|2011
Koncept
KonceptThe Game of Life'Your future is determined by the work that you put in. Dreams and goals depend on how bad you want them and how much you're willing to put into make them come reality.'POSTED 12|04|2010
MindsOne
MindsOneActs of Reality'We were hungry to hear music that would resonate with us but weren't finding enough. So we just put in the work to make an album that embodied the sounds and ideas that inspires us and that we feel is characteristic of hip-hop.'POSTED 12|01|2010
Rasco
RascoUntouchable #1'Over the years I have just done what feels best for me. I know what kind of beats are going to bring the best out of me so I continue to look for these sounds and I feel this will keep me sharp and keep me grounded to who I am.'POSTED 11|05|2010
Capital D
Capital DDo the Polymath'I honestly think that I'm probably just happier right now. I have a couple of kids and a good wife so I'm probably just mellowing a bit in terms of my life and it's coming out in the music. I definitely wanted to be a bit more musical in this album.'POSTED 11|01|2010
DJ Pocket
DJ PocketActivated'We did this to show cats that one LP every 2 years is not enough. That's unacceptable in today's society. We live in the days of fast food rap so you gotta be able to produce music like some people flip burgers at McDonalds.'POSTED 11|01|2010
Florian Gaag

Infinito2017
Infinito2017The last real African in America'It's cool that Obama used to do community assistance in Altgeld Gardens in Chicago, a public housing complex, that's it.

Magestik Legend
Magestik LegendThe Great Escape'This is my second album actually, but still it feels like the first official to me. This time everything feels right and I have the chance to showcase my art on a larger spectrum. So yeah, I feel great right now and it can only get greater!'POSTED 11|01|2010
