Details:
The energetic hip hop style of 10 Crown has captured the attention of listeners throughout the Midwest. Originating in Louisville, Kentucky they have vied to create their own sound from influences like No Limit Records, E-40, Yukmouth, Tech N9ne, and Dr. Dre. Most people would say itâs a cross between Down South and West Coast rap. Really, itâs a hard-edged, up tempo, club-style rap.
10 Crown consists of John Pfeiffer, Kevin Etherton, Matt Sturgeon, Doug Harman, Joe Roach, Eric Medley, and InSub Beckley a.k.a.: Mr. Mash, KE, Contraband, M.M. Mosolini, Ndoe, Medley, and INSUB respectively. The group was originally formed in 1999 and later completed by the addition of InSub Beckley and Eric Medley in 2003. Since then they have opened for major artists such as Juvenileâs UTP and Lilâ Scrappy, and up-and-coming artists such as Bukshot, Code Red, and Universalâs KD. 10 Crown also headlined one of Louisvilleâs biggest bashes of 2005 according to Velocity Magazine.
10 Crown wrote and produced all of the songs in their much anticipated album, âThe Tenth Districtâ. The broad range of their songsâ topics appeal to a more diverse audience than is typically associated with listeners of the hip hop genre. InSub Beckley produced the underlying music from his diverse musical background which includes electronica, rock, and classical piano. This wide range of influences have made way for beats that are unique, but are still in accordance with the mainstream trend.
