GUESS WHO'S BACK, TOO!

GUESS WHO'S BACK, TOO!

We said that before but we'll say it again. Ladybug Mecca is coming with her own album, which - you can already mark the day in your calendar - will be finally released on July 25th 2005 on Nu Paradigm. The album is called "Trip The Light Fantastic" and, like Ladybug Mecca herself puts it, "simply music" without genre classifications but a combination of her life experiences and different musical influences. Being born into a household of brazilian musicians she definetely knows that there is more to music than just hiphop without denying its influence on her. So everybody who remembers her incredibly slick and smooth rapping from the "Digable Planets" days can be nothing but looking forward to July 25th. This year's the year!

 

 

SILOETTE

There's not much information about her background and it really doesn't matter because her works speaks for itself. She lives in the Southwestern part of the USA, has a design/print company and just participated alongside the likes of ZORI4 and TOOFLY at this year's B-GIRL BEin MInnesotta. Check out her site and see what she's about!

KEEPIN`IT REAL- GOD-DES


KEEPIN`IT REAL- GOD-DES

"Keepin’ it real with the new sex appeal that all the ladies wanna feel, without suckin’ a dick, I’m makin’ it, so let me hear you say Oh *bleep*." God-Des and Singer Tina G are out to smash stereotypes, wherever they find them and do some political stuff, with a lot of satire and humour. check out this nice duo from Brooklyn and hear some tracks from their first album "Reality" to be convinced of that dope raps.
