BBOY COMMITY
How do we do what we do? That is the question. Hip-Hop is the flame that guides us thru the day and night. We turn up the heat thru traffic, at home, in the club. I love that kind of anytime, anyway sound, universal music. The Twin Cities has a long list of talented artist, from around the world that move in the underground music circles and promote their sound. Promote. A big word, we all need to promote more. BBOY Commity is dedicated to promoting great artist, and unifying the underground to make a greater impact on the music scene. This compilation is a maiden voyage into the TC streets, their homes, their lives.

PROF
Party, booze, girls, party, fun, booze, drunk, fight, party, party; a day in the life of Prof’s raps. A 25-year-old who loves to have a good time, Prof thinks his music should reflect exactly that. “Everyone’s trying to be a preacher or a politician— telling you how to live your life,” he says. “I’m not running for Senate. I’m doing this for fun and I don’t watch my mouth.”
ST. PAUL SLIM
Methodically quiet and seriously serious, St. Paul Slim prefers to sit back and observe, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. Don’t write him off as shy or docile, though, because for as somber as Slim can be, he can be equally boisterous and rowdy. He’ll get in your face to deliver the harsh reality of everyday life in the inner city. Born in Chicago and raised in St. Paul, Slim’s hard past is the creative fuel powering his career. If he raps about a gun, it’s because he’s carried one. If he rhymes about gang violence, it’s because he’s dealt with it and witnessed it.
