theBREAX

 

If you were to ask someone to name the hottest emcees from the West Coast the general public will most likely say NWA, Snoop, Tha Dogg Pound, Ice Cube, Cypress Hill, Xzibit, Tupac, E-40, etc., etc.

Although Death Row Records and a host of other artists had the game on lock back in the day, if you were to ask me that same question I probably wouldn't even mention any of those rappers, give or take one or two. As a East Coast rider it was rare that I gave any love to the left coast but then I came across dope artists such as Casual, Souls of Mischief, The Pharcyde, Dilated Peoples, Blackeyed Peas and Jurassic 5. Just like when you purchase a CD from Amazon it'll state, "Customers who bought this album also bought such and such". I'm here to say, if you like emcees such as Souls of Mischief, The Pharcyde and Jurassic 5, you may also like theBREAX.

Who Said The West Coast Fell Off???? 

theBREAX are breaking out the box of Hip-Hop music, religion, and political correctness, pushing the envelope of music, giving the masses what they want: enjoyable feel good music with an uplifting message that changes lives.

Formed in 2006, theBREAX exploded on the Southern California Hip-Hop and Spoken word scene and took it by storm with incredible performances, becoming crowd favorites at Elevated, Vibes and the Hot Monkey Love Cafe, three of San Diego's largest open mic venues. The group continued to electrify audiences, sharing the stage with notables such as: Tonex, Fred Hammond, 4th Avenue Jones, Pigeon John, The Visionaries, LMNO, L.A. Symphony , Future Shock, and Guinness Book Record Holder, Supernatural.

The members are an eclectic cast from: Azerbaijan, Baku (Ruslan: Emcee/Producer), Baltimore, MD (Beleaf: DJ, Emcee) and Oceanside, CA (Mic B: Drummer/ Production) and Vista, Ca (Name Brand: Producer). Their signature "Breaking out of the box" sound is a flavor that defies conventional songwriting with a combination of energy and precision. With their globally appealing sound and amazing live show, theBREAX are creating a diverse and loyal following of supporters. Mixing musical genres, while maintaining their own style has given them the ability to reach a wide array of people.

After the success of previous works like Out of Order (2004), Thoughts Aloud: The Mixtape (2005), and the critically acclaimed self-titled album "theBREAX". The group has demonstrated that it definitely has a bright career ahead of them. There is no question after hearing and watching these four very different people come together with the same passion, that music history is being made. This group has re-written the rules in the hope to change the future of music as well as pop culture.

theBREAX sound can be described as an artistic concoction of Kanye West soulful swagger, Saul Williams Spoken Word Poetry, the live instrumentation of the Roots, and the spirit of U2.

The new album "theBREAX" will feature guest appearance from: Future Shock, NomIS, Ant Black, Judah-1, Rufat, Apollo, Tee-Jay, and Insufficient Funds. The crew has no intentions of letting up, and for any true fan of Hip-Hop, this is a good thing. Time after time theBREAX continue to show the world that these emcees can flip any style at any given moment; their music is as diverse as the cities they represent.

In 2007 Rawkus Records declared that theBREAX are one of the "50 Next important hip hop artists" and signed them to a digital distribution/marketing deal to help sphere head Rawkus 50. Their critically acclaimed first album was re-released with full digitial distribution and marketing in september of 2007 under Rawkus 50 umbrella.
