SIR MIX-A-LOT



Real Name:
Anthony Ray

Born: August 12, 1963

After attending Seattle's Roosevelt High School, Sir Mix-a-Lot got his first break in 1986 when a demo tape of "Square Dance Rap" started getting airplay on UK radio. Its popularity lead to its release as a single on the UK Streetwave label and Sir Mix-a-Lot's inclusion in the line-up in the UK Fresh concert at Wembley Arena later that year alongside many of hip hop's leading artists at the time. He first was signed by Nastymix Records, then left, established Rhyme Cartel Records and was signed by American Recordings.

His first hit, released on Nastymix Records in 1988, was the single "Posse on Broadway"[2], giving some the impression that he was a New Yorker. The reference was actually to the street of the same name on Seattle's Capitol Hill. The song contains a sample from David Bowie's 1975 hit "Fame".

Other popular hits include "Buttermilk Biscuits" (1988), "Square Dance Rap" (1988), "Beepers" (1989), "My Hooptie" (1990) — a song about a car in disrepair — and "Jump On It" (1996). Sir Mix-a-Lot has tended to write, arrange, program, perform, and produce his own music.

His best-known song is the Miami Bass styled song "Baby Got Back" (1992), a number one hit that won him fame and the 1993 Grammy Award for Best Rap Solo Performance.[3] The single has since been parodied many times and is usually played in irony, celebrated for its over-the-top nature. A hook from the title song of his 1988 release Swass is finding a new audience with the success of The Pussycat Dolls' "Don't Cha".

In 1993 Sir Mix-A-Lot collaborated with his hometown (Seattle) based grunge/rock group Mudhoney for the song 'Freak Momma' on the Judgment Night soundtrack.

In 1995, Sir Mix-a-Lot starred as the titular character of the short-lived TV series The Watcher. The show was one of the first dramas aired on the fledgling broadcast network, UPN. Reminiscent of series such as The Twilight Zone, Sir-Mix-a-Lot functioned as an omniscient narrator who introduced each episode, which would feature a new tale set in the seamy underbelly of Las Vegas.

A big fall-out with American Recordings in the run-up to the release of Return of the Bumpasaurus and general disillusionment with the direction rap music was taking led to a three year break before a return with a new record label for the release of Daddy's Home. During the three year break, Sir Mix-a-Lot worked closely with another group, The Presidents of the United States of America under the group name "Subset" with a combination of rock and rap music, however nothing was ever officially released.

In 2007, Nas released the track Where Are They Now (West Coast Remix) which features Sir Mix-A-Lot, Breeze, King Tee, Kam, Candyman, Threat, Ice-T and the Conscious Daughters.

IMMORTAL TECHNIQUE

Inace ne stavljam novije stvari na blog, ali nekad napravim iznimke. Po preporuci frenda poslusao sam prvi album od IMMORTAL TECHNIQUE-a i moram priznati da covjek razvaljuje rime. Ostavljam na vama da sami prosudite!
tnx to mayo from Hastati!!!



BIOGRAPHY(courtesy of viperrecords.com):
Born in a military hospital in South America, Immortal Technique was brought to the United States in the early 80's while a civil war was breaking out in his native Peru. The US supported puppet democracy and Guerilla factions were locked in a bitter struggle which ended like most do in Latin America, with the military and economic aid of the State Dept. through channels like the CIA. Although he had escaped the belligerent poverty and social turmoil of life in the 3rd world, he was now residing in Harlem which had its own share of drama. Growing up on the streets of New York, the young man became enamored with Hip Hop culture, writing graffiti and starting to rhyme at an early age. Although he frequently cut school and ended up being arrested time and time again for his wild behavior, the kid still managed to finish high school and got accepted to a state university. Unfortunately the survivalist and aggressive attitude that was the norm in New York City caused him to be involved in more violent altercations at school, whether it was with other brothers, false flaggers or the relentlessly racist population of an uncultured Middle America.

Compiling multiple assault charges in New York State and in other states eventually caught up to the uncompromisingly hardheaded actions of one Immortal Technique. He faced several charges for Aggravated Assault in the tri-state area. Realizing his inevitable incarceration, Technique began to prolifically write down his ideas about what he had lived and seen in the struggle back at home in relation to his visits back to his native land. He came to embrace his African roots that stemmed from his grandfather and understood the nature of racism and ignorance in its role in Latino culture, separating oppressed peoples and keeping them divided. He also began to study in depth about the Revolutionary ideas that had caused a history of uprising in the indigenous community of his Native South America. Although pressured to turn states evidence before and during his bid, he refused the DA and lawyers. He was facing a 5-10 stretch, but the hiring of a pittbull attorney helped him compile the cases without turning snitch like his co-defendants. The result was a 1-2 year sentence in the mountains, 6 hours away from the city. There Technique studied, worked out vigorously, began to document his lyrics, and create songs. Besides the creation there was destruction, and the fights were nothing compared to the verbal battles that he engaged in occasionally. This proved to be a foreshadowing of what was to come...

Paroled in 1999, Immortal Technique returned to NYC and began a campaign to claim victory to what he had discovered he had a talent for; battling. One of the rites of passage in establishing oneself in the Hip Hop community is following in the steps of those who made their name in lyrical warfare before you. Immortal Technique quickly became known throughout the underground. His brutally disrespectful style was trademark, and it was not long until he had won countless battles not just on stage and in clubs, but on the streets whenever a random cipher would pop up. From Rocksteady Anniversary, to Braggin Rites, SLAM DVD's and hookt.com's infamous battles, he established himself as someone who could captivate a crowd and who people looked forward to seeing. But it was then that Technique realized what every battle champion had come to terms with before him, battles was just that, battling, and not synonymous with success at making music. Turning his eye to production and touching up some of the songs he had written in prison he now focused on trying to get an album together, but major labels wanted a more pop friendly image and were uncomfortable with his hardcore street style that was complemented by his political views. In response to their lack of vision, Immortal Technique left the battle circuit and released his critically acclaimed Revolutionary Vol.1, which at first moved 3000 copies, but to date has moved more than 12,000. This earned him Unsigned Hype in the Source (11/02) and numerous articles in Elemental & Mass Appeal.

Established in the underground circuit Tech began another round of dealing with record labels unwilling to see the direction of his brutally honest and cultured rhymes. He decided to continue with what had been so successful, his hand to hand out the trunk hustle. In the post 9.11 climate, as the music industry crumbled, Immortal Technique built on the truth with a hardcore brand of street politics. Being featured in XXL, The Washington Post, and having been titled with the Hip Hop quotable in The Source (10/03) for his sophomore independent release Revolutionary Vol.2 was just the beginning.. On Viper Records, where he is the Executive VP, he sold 29,000 copies of Revolutionary Vol.2 to date and has appeared on soundtracks for new movies including the new Mario Van Peebles film "BAADASSSSS". Immortal Technique has also worked with Mumia Abu Jamal and AWOL magazine. His single "Industrial Revolution" released in conjunction with Uncle Howie Records hit #1 on CMJ and #50 on the Billboard charts. Recently back from a successful West Coast tour, Immortal Technique is now booking a European tour in the Fall of 2004 and recording his highly anticipated third album...

US3

I just love this fusion between jazz and hip hop. It's full of good jazz rhythms on one side, and nice and powerfull rhymes on the odher side. When those two are put together it sounds very powerfull. So, I decided to entroduce to you one of true representatives of this jazz-hip hop style - group named US3.

BIOGRAPHY:
The jazz/hip-hop fusion collective Us3 scored a major hit in 1994 with "Cantaloop (Flip Fantasia)," a song that displayed the group's fondness for sampling classic recordings on the Blue Note label (in this case, Herbie Hancock's "Cantaloupe Island"). The group was founded in London in 1991 when concert promoter and jazz writer Geoff Wilkinson met Mel Simpson, who was writing music for television shows and ad jingles and had once played keyboards with John Mayall. The two produced an independent single, "Where Will We Be in the 21st Century?," which sold less than 250 copies. In 1992, their song "The Band That Played the Boogie" attracted the attention of Blue Note owner Capitol Records, which gave Simpson and Wilkinson free rein to sample anything from the catalog. The two immediately went to work, hiring several musicians and rappers Kobie Powell and Rahsaan Kelly, with Tukka Yoot joining later. The sessions resulted in the hit "Cantaloop" and the album Hand on the Torch. The group toured Japan and Europe, gradually weaning itself away from using samples in a live setting, and played a well-received show at the 1993 Montreux Jazz Festival. Hand on the Torch was ignored by most jazz publications, but was chosen Album of the Year by Japan's Swing Journal, and the group were named Jazz Musicians of the Year by Britain's The Independent. After a nearly three-year delay, Us3 returned in 1997 with Broadway & 52nd, an album which received positive reviews but failed to generate a hit. The band -- though it was mostly Wilkinson and guests at this point -- continued to release new material into the new millennium, however, including 2005's Questions and 2007's Say What!?

CYBOTRON

BIOGRAPHY (via allmusic.com):
The seminal electro group Cybotron provided the first home for the recordings of techno godfather Juan Atkins. With partner Rick Davis (aka 3070), Atkins recorded several of electro's best moments; the singles "Alleys of Your Mind," "Enter," and "Clear," were dark dystopias of the post-industrial steel city within tight Kraftwerk-inspired funk. Their success prompted Fantasy Records to sign the group, and release 1983's Enter LP. Atkins left soon after due to artistic differences (specifically, Davis' defined pop slant), and later defined early Detroit techno with his recordings as Model 500. Davis continued to release albums as Cybotron into the mid-'90s, though the mystical R&B direction of efforts like Empathy and Cyber Ghetto were quite a turn from the group's beginnings. For fans of electro and techno, Cybotron ended when Juan Atkins left.

POOR RIGHTEOUS TEACHERS


BIOGRAPHY (via allmusic.com):
Part of the growing contingent of Islamic-oriented message rappers, Poor Righteous Teachers formed in Trenton, NJ, when teenage friends Culture Freedom and Wise Intelligent (songwriting credits are listed as S. Phillips and T. Grimes) decided to form a more positive rap group as an alternative to the gangsta style (which they vehemently defend). Joined by DJ and producer Father Shaheed, the group recorded two albums (1990's Holy Intellect and 1991's Pure Poverty) stressing their religious beliefs and philosophy; in spite of sometimes neglecting their music for their message, the albums sold respectably well. 1993's Black Business proved to be their most musically satisfying outing, drawing praise for Wise's ability to use the style and intonation of a reggae/dancehall toaster; however, it was also criticized for its liberal sprinkling of homophobia. New World Order followed in 1996.

CRASH CREW




BIOGRAPHY(via allmusic.com)

The six-man Crash Crew recorded a few old school anthems, one of which ("High Powered Rap") was released before Grandmaster Flash found a hit with the same jam (as "Freedom"). Based in Harlem's Lincoln Projects, the collective was formed by high-school friends E.K. Mike C, Reggie Reg (Reginald Payne), La Shubee, Barry Bistro, G-Man, and DJ Darryl C (Darryl Calloway). Beginning around 1977, gigs at block parties and Harlem's Club 197 gave them experience, and E.K. Mike C's studio connection gave them a chance to record much earlier than most other rappers. Borrowing from the funk track "Get up and Dance" by Freedom, Crash Crew recorded a short demo named "High Powered Rap" and sold the self-released single to fans at shows. Time hasn't recorded whether Sugar Hill got the idea for a new recording based on the song from Crash Crew or some other source, but regardless, the first national hit for Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five was 1980's "Freedom," based on the same song. The group's first release on Sugar Hill, the single reached the R&B charts -- it was indeed far superior to Crash Crew's version -- and caused some enmity between the two acts.

Ironically, Crash Crew soon made their own appearance on Sugar Hill, with quite a few tracks, including old school classics "We Are Known as Emcee's (We Turn Parties Out)" and "Breakin' Bells (Take Me to the Mardi Gras)." Even with five rappers, Crash Crew wasn't a very talented rap group; they excelled at party jams with a lot of repeat choruses instead of rapping. The group disappeared soon after, and none of the members continued in the music industry. In 2000, Sequel compiled their work for the collection We Are Emcees.

ELEMENTAL

BIOGRAPHY (preuzeto sa njihove sluzbene stranice www.elemental.com.hr):


Elemental
je u svojoj osnovi hip-hop bend koji ne slijedi stroge stilske odrednice, nego putuje različitim glazbenim žanrovima, posuđujući od svakog ono u čemu se najviše prepoznaje i na taj način obogaćuje vlastiti glazbeni stil. Elemental je nastao 1998. g i do sada objavio četiri studijska albuma.

Veliki naglasak Elemental stavlja na svirke uživo, dinamične nastupe i izravnu komunikaciju sa svojom publikom. Bend nikada nije robovao glazbenim trendovima i ne vodi se prolaznošću singlova ili prodajom albuma. Svoju glazbu ne smatra proizvodom, nego svojim umjetničkim izrazom, pa se trudi u pjesme unositi inovativnost, originalnost i stvoriti vlastiti stil.

Danas Elemental čine: Shot i Remi (MC-ji), Erol Zejnilović (gitara), Davor Zanoški (klavijature), Marijo Bilić (bas), Ivan Vodopijec (bubnjevi) i Nataša Tonković (prateći vokal).

Počeci Elementala sežu u 1998.g kada su se okupili kao rap trojac i u toj postavi objavili dva albuma - 2000 g. debi album "Moj njegov i njen svijet" (Kondorcomm) i 2002. g. "Tempo Velegrada - Demiurg" (Menart). Posljednjih pet godina djeluju u sedmeročlanoj postavi, netipičnoj za rap formu, zamjenjujući "sampliranje" odsviranim glazbenim dionicama. U toj su postavi izdali svoja sljedeća dva albuma - 2004. g. "Male Stvari" i 2008. g. "Pod pritiskom" (Menart).

U ožujku 2002., za izdavačku kuću Menart, Elemental izdaju svoj drugi album pod nazivom "Tempo Velegrada/Demiurg". Taj je album bio prekretnica uz koju se grupa približila svom sadašnjem zvuku s živim bendom. Na albumu su im gostovali mnogi eminentni hrvatski instrumentalisti, uglavnom jazz orijentacije, a vokalno su im pripomogli i razni hip-hop izvođači (Tram11, Bizzo iz Bolesne Braće, Špica, One II Many).

U novoj postavi, Elemental izdaje svoj treći studijski album "Male Stvari" u listopadu 2004. S tog albuma je izdvojeno čak šest singlova, redom: "Napokon", "Romantika", "Tako lijepa", "Sama", "Iz dana u dan" i "Male stvari". Kao najveći hitovi s albuma istaknule su se pjesme "Romantika" i "Iz dana u dan". Album "Male Stvari" uvršten je u top 10 hrvatskih izdanja 2004. g.

2005. godine Elemental je nominiran za hrvatsku diskografsku nagradu "Porin" u tri kategorije, a te iste godine Remi dobiva nagradu "Zlatna Koogla" za najbolji vokal. Spot za pjesmu "Tako lijepa" je 2006. g. dobio nagradu "Magdalena" za najbolji spot. 2007. g. Elemental dobiva "Zlatnu Kooglu" za spot "Iz dana u dan". Pjesma "Tako lijepa" dobila je odlikovanje emisije "HR Top 20" i ušla u top 20 najbolji pjesama 2006. Album "Male stvari" HDU (Hrvatska diskografska udruga) nagradila je srebrnom pločom za broj prodanih primjeraka albuma.

Elemental je od izlaska albuma "Male stvari" odsvirao preko sto koncerata po cijeloj Hrvatskoj i predstavio se brojnim svirkama publici u BiH, Sloveniji i Makedoniji.

Tijekom tri godine, uz mnogobrojne koncerte i nastupe u televizijskim i glazbenim emisijama, Elemental je radio na novim pjesmama i snimio novi album "Pod pritiskom". S albuma su već predstavljena tri singla, "Dobar dan" u kolovozu 2007., "Zašto te imam" u studenom 2007. i "Pod pritiskom" u veljači 2008. g. Svi su singlovi sjajno prihvaćeni i zauzeli su vrhove top ljestvica u cijeloj RH.

Politički osviješten single "Zašto te imam" je zbog svog eksplicitnog spota i teksta pjesme zabranjen na većini televizijskih postaja, a na internetskoj stranici "Youtube" ga je do sada pogledalo preko 50.000 ljudi. Spot je režirala producentska kuća "Kosi Kadar".

Novi album "Pod pritiskom" grupe Elemental pušten je u prodaju 7.2.2008. Novim albumom Elemental predstavlja svoj novi, žešći i oštriji zvuk, a tekstovi su eksplicitni, socijalno osviješteni, ali su zadržali notu hip-hop poetike.
Kompletnu glazbu, tekstove i aranžmane svih pjesama potpisuju sami.

EVERLAST aka Mr. WHITEY FORD


BIOGRAPHY (via allmusic.com):
Once best known for his tenure in the rap unit House of Pain, Everlast successfully reinvented himself in 1998 with the best-selling Whitey Ford Sings the Blues, a largely acoustic, hip-hop-flavored effort in the genre-crossing mold of Beck. Born Erik Schrody, Everlast first surfaced in Los Angeles as a member of Ice-T's Rhyme Syndicate Cartel, issuing his debut album, Forever Everlasting, in 1990. When the album failed to find an audience, he formed House of Pain with Danny Boy and DJ Lethal; carving out an image which drew heavily on Everlast and Danny Boy's shared Irish heritage, the trio managed to overcome the stereotypes facing white rappers and scored a massive hit with their 1992 single "Jump Around." Their self-titled debut LP also went platinum, but when follow-ups including 1994's Same as It Ever Was and 1996's Truth Crushed to Earth Shall Rise Again failed to repeat House of Pain's early success, the group disbanded. Everlast then returned to his solo career, but while recording Whitey Ford Sings the Blues he suffered a massive cardiac arrest stemming from a congenital defect, resulting in heart bypass surgery and an artificial valve implant. Following his recovery, he completed the album, which appeared in the fall of 1998 to strong commercial notices: hitting the Top Ten, going platinum, and launching the Top 40 single "What It's Like." After appearing on Santana's vaunted comeback album Supernatural, Everlast began work on a follow-up with an eclectic group of guest artists. Titled Eat at Whitey's, the album was released in late 2000, and enjoyed critical notice even if it wasn't quite as succesful as Whitey Ford. Everlast then returned in 2004 with the moody, more song-driven White Trash Beautiful.
