Opgezwolle - Biography
In 2001 Opgezwolle competed in a contest called "De Oogst van Overijssel" ("The Harvest of Overijssel"). After winning the final in Enschede in May 2001 they got a place in the regional final of the GPNL, and in the summer they recorded their first album "Spuugdingen op de Mic" ("Spitthings on the Mic").Opgezwolle made it to the final of the GPNL where they competed with Raymzter. The jury thought that Raymzter made a little more impression and he won the contest. DJ Delic got a prize as "Musician of the Evening". On the evening before the GPNL final, they presented "Spuugdingen op de Mic" in Hedon, Zwolle. The album received overall positive reviews from critics.
In 2002 Opgezwolle began their "Homegrown" Tour. They caught the eye of Dutch label [TopNotch] and in mid-2002 a record deal was signed for three albums.On 5 December 2002 "Opgeduveld" appeared for the first time. A collaboration between Opgezwolle and the Rotterdam rap group DuvelDuvel (whose members are Duvel, Rein de Vos and Supahdupah). This CD was also well received. In 2005 it was rereleased in both standard and collectors editions.
On 29 November 2004 the most recent CD of Sticks and Kubus hit the stores, named Microphone Colossus. Sticks named the CD after 'Saxophone Colossus', an album by Jazz musician Sonny Rollins.The Buitenwesten Tour with Typhoon, Jawat, Kubus, Duvel went all through the Netherlands and was a great success, with many sold out halls.
After a long period of silence from the band, on 23 January 2006 the third Opgezwolle album called "Eigen Wereld" ("Own world") was released. The album features collaborations with other MCs like Jawat!, Duvel, Winne en Raymzter. The album contains 21 songs, and almost 70 minutes of music. The album also climbed to number 4 in the 'Album Top 100', the highest notation of any Dutch rap album ever (the album 'Verschil moet er zijn' (there has to be difference) of Brainpower didn't came further than place 6). Their tour for this album also received good reviews.
