New York, New York- Over the past decade, while major record labels have seen sales consistently decline, Quad Almighty- formerly of the Milwaukee, Wisconsin based hip hop group H.A.Z.- has been quietly setting the underground music scene ablaze.
With the highly anticipated spring 08' release of, The Royal Parchment: The Indoktrination of Dynastik Rationalizm in view; The Quad Almighty E.P, his first E.P. as a solo artist, presents a hip hop amalgamation of socially relevant subject matter and razor sharp satire, told through the lyrics of one of the Midwest's' most talented young emcees.
"On this project I tried to create an accurate snapshot of the serious and sometimes absurd issues we face today," Quad Almighty said. "There are tracks that many [hip –hop] head's can definitely relate to and other songs that are bit more academic; touching on thought provoking themes that are rarely explored. Not to mention the production is insane, with beats that can make a seamless transition from the club, to the car, to your ipod earphones…"
Quad Almighty burst onto the Midwest's hip hop scene in 1998, as a member of the hip hop group H.A.Z. (Hungry and Zooted). "Hungry for change but Zooted with contentment," is a slogan the group members used to describe their social disposition. After establishing a reputation for their searing social commentaries, unrelenting lyrical agility, and energetic live performances, H.A.Z. rewarded their loyal fan base with the 2001 release of their debut E.P. entitled Oral Elations. H.A.Z. followed Oral Elations with the 2002 self-titled L.P. Hungry and Zooted; both albums were released by the independent B-Boy Universal record label. Following the modest success of Hungry and Zooted, Quad Almighty began to work with various hip hop acts to increase his national exposure and develop as a solo artist. These acts include Taste Emcees, Growing Nation, Finsta & Bundy, and Black Elephant.
The Quad Almighty E.P.'s production is done by Finsta, Brooklyn's own native son and one half of the hip hop duo Finsta & Bundy. It gives hip hop aficionados a "taste-test" of The Royal Parchment: The Indoktrination of Dynastik Rationalizm. The E.P. is extremely listener friendly and reminds audiences of everything that made them fall in love with hip-hop music.
