Details:
KNOTZ is a hip-hop group comprised of three dynamic performers who are actually blood brothers. Dreadchild (Kareem Parkins), Megaton (Jelani Parkins), and Aswad Mikal the Black Angel (Gyasi Parkins), have been performing earnest for several years. Their first large stage performance was in 1995 at the RCA Dome in Indianapolis, Indiana for a BET sponsored event âCatch Wreck â95". Since then, Knotz has done a host of shows, released a CD Download in December 2000 and continue to forge ahead with its own brand of Hip-Hop.

The Download CD was produced and released by the groupâs independently owned record label, Damali Records. With limited funding and practically no mass media promotion Download sold approximately 5000 units and has been featured on over 47 underground and college radio stations throughout the United States and Canada. Two cuts from the Cd âMoveâ and âBlackout Seasonâ, received extensive underground airplay. Additionally, âMoveâ was also featured on Insomniac Magazineâs EP, Strategic Infiltration.

KNOTZ is made up of a cadre of dedicated performers who are unrelenting in their push to the top of the Hip-Hop scene. More information on the group is available online at www.damalimusik.com. Listed below are some of KNOTZâs major accomplishments and performances.
