Debut Album "Thugcore 4 Life" Combines Hip-hop and Hardcore With Guest Appearances by Members of The Transplants, La Coka Nostra, Kottonmouth Kings and House of Pain
The innovator of "Thugcore" Danny Diablo has released the video for "Funky Rhyme" featuring Daddy X of the Kottonmouth Kings online at the following location http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S1SKfPmQlmI
"I did this video at my boy Risky W.C.A.’s crib. Daddy X and The SubHoodz blessed me by spitting on the track. DJ Spae did the beat and reminds me of an old school Muggs beat," says Diablo. "’Funky Rhyme’ has an old school feeling to it and we had a blast doing the video. I have my boy The Rev tattooing my homeboy Paulie B’s name who passed away on my back in the video. We all had a great time and there are a lot of artist in the video making cameos. Daddy X came down with his family and showed me mad love. Go to my MySpace page and go on YouTube and look up the ‘Funky Rhyme’ video."
The track "Funky Rhyme" is the latest single from Danny Diablo’s Suburban Noize debut Thugcore 4 Life. The album combines New York style hardcore and hip-hop mixed together to create something truly unique. The album features guest appearances by some of music’s biggest names Daddy X (Kottonmouth Kings), the Sub Hoodz Stress and Harley Havok, DJ Lethal (House of Pain), Slain, Danny Boy and La Coka Nostra’s Big Left and Ceekay.
Danny Diablo rose through the ranks of the New York hardcore scene during the mid-90s as the frontman of the legendary Skarhead. After touring the world several times over, appearing on the Warped Tour and influencing a slew of new age hardcore bands, Diablo joined forces with Hatebreed frontman Jamey Jasta in Icepick. The duo’s side-project, which took hardcore back to its roots, released their debut album "Violent Epiphany" in 2006 via Jasta’s own Stillborn Records. Currently Diablo is working with producer Tim Armstong (Rancid) recording his upcoming album, International Hardcore Superstar, for release in 2008.
