Guerilla Funk Projekte:
HARD TRUTH SOLDIERS COMPILATIONS
Hard Truth Soldiers compilations will be released this year, and Volume 1 promises to make considerable noise. Already committed are Paris, Public Enemy, The Coup, Dead Prez, Immortal Technique, T-KASH, Kam, The Conscious Daughters, MC Ren, and Zion-I, with more to come.
THE CONSCIOUS DAUGHTERS
Paris has re-teamed with The Conscious Daughters. For their debut album, The Conscious Daughters (TCD) approached Paris, who signed them to Scarface Records, his first independent venture. Ear to the Street went on to sell over 300,000 copies. Their second effort, Gamers, was released shortly thereafter and sold over 200,000 copies, entering the Billboard Chart with a bullet.
Now The Conscious Daughters again are poised to bring heat on Paris’ latest venture, Guerrilla Funk Recordings, with their third effort, The Nutcracker Suite, which features themes of self-empowerment and sisterhood with their signature hardcore edge. By featuring world-class guest appearances and raw-edged production work by Paris and Rick Rock (producer to Jay-Z, Ice Cube, 2Pac), The Nutcracker Suite is packed with head-noddin’ beats that compliment TCD’s in-your-face style of rhyming.
A necessary compliment to the Guerrilla Funk family, this crew of dope female MCs provides a sorely-needed female perspective in hip-hop that rarely gets the attention it deserves.
T-K.A.S.H. (AS SEEN AND HEARD WITH THE COUP)
Guerrilla Funk has signed T-KASH to release his debut album, Afterparty Music. After honing his skills on Bay Area revolutionary hip-hop group The Coup’s projects Steal This Album, Steal This Double Album and Party Music, T-KASH is set to unleash his magnum opus, Afterparty Music, on a world now weary of commercialized gangsta fables and the prostitution of hip-hop.
Featuring production work by Paris, Afterparty Music employs verbal assistance from both The Coup and Paris, among others, and stands as a project that promises to play an essential role in the resurgence of quality hip-hop outside of the corporate box.
PUBLIC ENEMY
Guerrilla Funk has reached an agreement to manufacture and distribute an exclusive, Paris-produced Public Enemy album entitled Rebirth Of A Nation. As many of you know, Public Enemy rewrote the rules of hip-hop, becoming the most influential and controversial hip-hop group last century and, for many, the definitive rap group of all time. Selling millions of records along the way, Public Enemy pioneered a variation of hardcore hip-hop that was musically and politically revolutionary.
Public Enemy has had many major successes, but it was their 2002 release Revolverlution which found the long overdue pairing of the group with fellow revolutionary hip-hop artist Paris on the remix of their lead single. That effort set the tone for the collaboration between Public Enemy, Paris and Dead Prez on Paris’ current album project, Sonic Jihad.

quality hip-hop outside of the corporate box.
