The Program consists of legendary DJ/Producer K Def, and rapper Dacapo (Dave Cazeau). The groups sound is reminiscent of early 90┤s hip hop, combining the strong soulful and jazzy beats of K-Def with the lyrics of Dacapo, whose rhymes typically come from a sociological perspective, and avoids the use of profanity. K-Def, easily one of the most slept on producers of his time, has a style of production that is rare, complementing the lyrics of each song. The professional sound of the production helps to make each record stand out, demanding ull attention. Both members have a strong bond to the roots of the music that they produce, and will come to be viewed as the next step after groups such as Gang Starr, Pete Rock / C.L. Smooth, and the like.

The debut album from these San Diego stalwarts features a who’s who of independent hip-hop: Vinnie Paz (of Jedi Mind Tricks), ILL Bill (of Non-Phixion & La Coka Nostra), Sabac Red (of Non-Phixion), Kool G Rap, Outerspace & more. Over eight years of local support have made Randam Luck a force in the San Diego indie hip-hop scene. A raucous live act, Randam Luck have appeared with the likes of Evidence (Dilated Peoples), Jayo Felony, Don Carlos, De La Soul, KRS-1 and many more. “Conspiracy of Silence” is as much a tribute to hardcore independent hip-hop as it is a fresh take on the sub-culture that spawned franchise powerhouses Jedi Mind Tricks, Non-Phixion and many more.
R&B singer Tyrese Gibson — referred to as Tyrese — began his career at the age of 14, performing in local talent shows around his home in Los Angeles’ Watts section; his big break came when he starred in a commercial for Coca-Cola, shortly followed in 1998 by his self-titled debut album for RCA. He followed three years later with 2000 Watts. I Wanna Go There appeared a year later, but it wasn’t until late 2006 that he released his fourth album, Alter Ego. Also an actor, he has appeared in Baby Boy, 2 Fast 2 Furious, and Four Brothers.
Atlanta-based R&B quartet Cherish debuted in 2003 with the single “Miss P.” produced by Jermaine Dupri. They had inked a deal with Warner Bros. imprint Ashanti Records, but for undisclosed reasons, their first release, The Moment, was shelved and never saw the light of day. Nonetheless, amid the “snap music” craze in the mid-2000s, Cherish rebounded in the summer of 2006 with hit single “Do It to It.” The single stood for several weeks in the Top 20 of Billboard’s Pop and R&B/Hip Hop Charts. The four King sisters — Farrah, Neosha, and twins Felisha and Fallon — began singing when they were between two and six years old, but started doing it professionally when they were between seven and 11. After they left Warner Bros., they found a rapport working with popular Atlanta producer Jazze Pha. They signed to Pha’s imprint Sho’Nuff Records and obtained a distribution deal through Capitol Records. To help promote their “Do It to It” single, Cherish released an instructional video over the Internet on how to do the snap dance. Unappreciated, their Capitol debut, was released in August 2006. ~ Cyril Cordor, All Music Guide
After his solo debut “Garden around the Mansion”, he was busy in reggae band “Helt Off” and held down some guest appearances, vocal and production, on J-Ro’s latest album among other things (which was in great part produced in Sweden and appeared on Juju Records, just like Chords, Timbuktu and more great Swedish cats).
Soul Jazz Records present Steppa’s Delight, due for release 12th Mayl 2008. A 2 x CD installment of the finest dubstep tracks, including Goth Trad’s ‘Genesis’ Intensive Snare from Plastician & Skepta along with tracks from Joker, Gatekeeper, Benga, Quest, Shakleton, Trg, uncle Sam + many more.
“I’m an MC y’all, I am who I am,” Braille emphatically states on “Remember Your Path,” a track from his fourth album, cleverly monikered IV. “Path” follows the artist’s road to rap, on a track that’s equal parts early life story and homage to hip-hop. It’s one of a clutch of autobiographical songs here, which also include his manifesto “Beautiful Harmony” and the intensely personal “Many Stories.” But Braille has built his career on such soul-baring, a decision he recounts on the emphatic “Calculated Risk,” and expounds upon on “Restless.” The risk he refers to, of course, is dedicating his music to God’s work. Only rarely, though, does Braille preach, with his sole sermon, “The Cure,” delivered over K-Murdock’s laid-back beat. Even so, positive messages abound, from the guest-heavy “Constantly Grow” to the heavy-hitting, apocalyptic “Counter Attack,” which warns that even though evil approaches, the situation is not hopeless. On “Get It Right” Braille is at war with himself, seeking God’s help to overcome sin within and without, and the paranoia and guilt that grip him. That inner turmoil is discomfiting, the dystopia described on “Raise the Dead” horrifying, hauntingly similar to George Romero’s Land of the Dead. If there’s a positive message there, it’s easily missed, but there’s no doubting Braille’s intent on “Mental Guards (Snitch Blade),” as he boldly retells the story of Christ’s betrayal and trial in a modern setting. From paying loving tribute to his wife on the romantic “Blessed Man” to plugging the album on “ADDvice,” and himself on the title track, IV covers a lot of ground. But IV doesn’t just refer to this being Braille’s fourth set nor his desire to provide a cure to societal and social ills. It also references his international vision, with the set’s beats provided by producers from around the world. No wonder, then, that the sounds are constantly shifting, the musical influences ever-changing, the moods as varied as Braille’s themes. It’s a dizzying journey, but the artist’s eloquent rhymes and raps always return to potent points, and with them the artist builds up a powerful foundation of advice, self-observance, and self-awareness, with a sharp eye for the larger picture and a larger force at work in the world.
