The Upstarts - The Know How 2007

Label:Subcontact

Never the ones that let current trends affect them
(music, social, fashion, etc.), "The Upstarts" seed
has grown out of a common respect for a certain
aesthetic value of all art forms which is audibly
reflected in their music. The larger Upstarts-Society
is a collaboration of artists and musicians centered
around a core trio simply know as The Upstarts.
Consisting of the former lead emcee "Profile" of the
now famous Sound Providers, "Price" (emcee) and "Iron
Mike" (DJ/Drummer).

The live band consists of veteran guitarist "ODZ",
seasoned keyboardist Dante Thomas, Ed Tagalog on Bass
and Iron Mike on Drums.

The Upstarts-Society collaboration for projects such
as the current "The Know How" 2007 album include:
Vocal tracks from industry renowned artists Grap Luva
and Kev Brown along with the highly recognized
regional artist Latanya Lockett and Blest. Producers
Kev Brown (Up Above Records/Low Budget Soul), and up
and coming producers Freddie Joachim (Organology),
Quaaludes (Blitzkrieg Militia) and W Steele (The
Upstarts) provide a sound that bridges the gap between
the golden era and today's new jacks The Upstarts
breath a refreshing sound back into the minds and
souls of everyone who loves "Classic Hip-Hop".
