Schweigsamer Ritter im Hungerstreik!
Silent Knight, gebürtiger Brooklyner und dem The Plague Umfeld zuzuordnen, wird noch im Dezember diesen Jahres sein 2. Album "Hunger-Strike" veröffentlichen, um damit kurz vor Jahresende noch mal ein kleines aber feines Ausrufezeichen zu setzen. Bei Feature-Auftritten von Pumpkinhead, Sean Price, Hasan Salaam, Sean Boog of The Away Team und einigen mehr sowie Produktionen von Ayatollah, Da Beatminerz, Illmind, Analogic und anderen dürfte da eine wahre Perle auf uns zukommen, die angesichts vermuteter relativ geringer Absatzzahlen hoffentlich nicht dazu führt, dass der schweigsame Ritter tatsächlich in den Hungerstreik eintritt.

The Bad Seed ist noch dabei und hat unlängst erst sein Solo-Album Dirty Urine veröffentlicht. Das gab es allerdings schonmal als Bonus-Disc von dem im Mai oder Juni erschienen Sampler Draft Radio und ich fand es erschreckend schwach.

Die O.B.S. Ep habe ich allerdings immer noch nicht gehört, der Captain wollte dafür meinem Geschmack nach ein wenig zu viel Kohle .

Silent Knight Gears Up For 2nd Official Release – Restoration: One Step Back, Two Steps Forward


NEW BRUNSWICK, NJ, January 3, 2008 – Some say in order to move forward one must understand the past. Keeping that mantra in mind, Silent Knight offers his 2nd official release – Restoration: One Step Back, Two Steps Forward, taking his fans on a journey through the past to show them where he is going next. The album is a collection of rare unreleased tracks and previously released material, remixed by some of today's finest beatsmiths. Restoration boasts a line up of what many would say is today's best up and coming producers with contributions from the likes of Analogic, M-phazes, Rashid Hadee, E.Jones, DJ Vadim & Quincey Tones to name a few. Fresh off of the buzz of the Rawkus Records digital re-release of his debut Hunger Strike, Silent Knight aims to give his growing fan base some new material while putting the finishing touches on his soon to be released EP. Keep an eye out for Restoration to be available at the end of January!

all agree that BAD SEED is one of the most phenomenal song writing MC talents the world has never known.

I mean, probably a hundred thousand people knew about Seed just from his independent single "Unnnhh..." (27, 000 copies indie with Fatbeats Distribution), a few other indie singles, his underground Mixtapes "SUPER!", and that was before he appeared on Flex's album (Gold), K-Slays album, White Labelled a song recorded with Usher that wasn't fated to be officially released and recently appeared on Mims Platinum single and album, touring the country this past year and appearing on Letterman and every other show along the way. It's gotta be in the millions by now.

BAD SEED has been down with The Plague for about 10 years, since we were all kids doin' this for fun and respect, but of course baby boy we all grown up and about that paper these days.

Formerly of the group O.B.

S featuring Pumkinhead, Bad Seed and Meatpie, with songs with Jean Grae and other noteworthy talents, Seed got fed up with the bizness and took off for a little while.

Well, best believe he's Back on his Bully (check the song) and recording songs for what may be his final album! (They always say that, lol, but throw some more money his way I'm pretty sure he'd get in the booth).

Shortening his name to Seed, the Brooklyn born Sugar Ray Leonard of Rap is about to shake things up with his album "On Everything I Own"

Bad Seed will be featured on the upcoming Plague prequel album: AIRBORNE on MCMI Records.

Until then peep his brand new joints on his Myspace page:
