Details:
In today's hip hop generation a song about busting a nut and smacking an ass
makes the crowd go crazy. Frivolous songs and silly artist are what sells
platinum records. Keep it simple stupid, is what's up but not what's real. From
the streets of the South Bronx hails two real Hip-Hop artists that don't spit
for the OOHH's and AAHH's ,and they're known as Pan and Ei8ht.When interviewed
Pan said, " I'm tired of turning on the radio and hearing these popcorn niggas
with multi- million dollar deals." and Ei8ht on the other hand enjoys hearing
these songsters and insist, "You need a little bit of cotton candy in the game
so that you can recognize the realist."
On a quest to save Hip- Hop these lyricists deliver to you Street Disciplez
Entertainment. Because -Rap is something you do, Hip-Hop is something you
live-,KRS One- these disciples truly believe in living it. At this moment, they
are in the works of expanding four entities of their corporation by connecting
with five other young African-American males. Under the umbrella of Street
Disciplez Entertainment is the magazine C.R.A.Q.U.E ran by Face President of
Marketing, the clothing line Belchez ran by Hollywood President of Fashion, and
the record label Street Disciplez Records ran by Rumbz, Pan, and Ei8ht CEO's of
S.D. Entertainment. The fourth entity is ran by Carlito G and DJ Karee better
known as the Get Paid Crew. They have branched off into Street Disciplez Radio
that airs Friday and Saturday night from 10pm to 2am in Virginia's 7 cities on
103 Jamz.
Not to be confused with Nas' new release Streets Disciple these disciples have
been in the streets spitting verses for over a combined twenty years. When asked
how did he feel about the company's name being very similar to Nas' new album?
Ei8ht said, "It's like we've been on reserve for years and we can't get an idea
out to the public fast enough before it seems like someone else has a very
similar idea." When asked how does that make him feel he replied, "I'm not
worried about it. I'm just going to do what I do. If he has a problem with it
we'll deal with it the best way we know how. Besides, its not like we're beat
biting because in fact we came up with this name years ago." and from the words
of Pan, " There's a difference between Streets Disciple and the Street
Disciplez. Streets Disciple is one who follows the streets and the Street
Disciplez are those who the streets follow." in continuance he states," No
disrespect to Nas I grew up listening to him." They both believe that its time
for artist to stop conforming to what's on the airways and to allow your heart
to spit the sixteen bars.
Recently they completed their album Purgatory. Pan addresses the album's title
as a meaning to his career, his life, and his struggle as a Blackman. "Purgatory
is a waiting period between heaven and hell. We've waited along time for this
opportunity. I believe every man has experienced this, were they're stuck in a
situation that could go either way, towards the good or the bad especially when
your family is deprived of basic necessities." Ei8ht solely agrees however feels
that, "It's a place of being. When we made this album I felt like we were so
close to heaven but still felt hells fire. So much shit was going on around us
like close friends being shot up and killed, baby mommy drama, electricity cut
off, car accidents, car stolen, evictions, and the list goes on and on.' he also
added that they did not come up with this name until after they wrote the album,
"our life was and still is in Purgatory." Being that everything they went
through was spit in the booth they couldn't do anything but give this album its
respectable name.
Now if you're down with real hip-hop, make sure you go out and cop their shit.
You can catch Purgatory in stores sometime during the first quarter of 2005. In
the meantime, look for Da Truth being played on your local radio station and for
the video of the song How Can I?
