Onewerd & Pete Feliciano are a California based duo, whose sound, between the two of them, covers not just hip hop, but folk, acoustic, electronic, rock and instrumental stuff too. In 2015, Study Music Group released Onewerd’s first instrumental project, the electronic-influenced ‘Axiomatic EP’. This spring Study Music Group will partner with the duo for their collaborative full length debut, produced entirely by Onewerd.
More soon.

Bonafide Magazine Premier: ‘The Doors’ – Poe & CTZN release single, announce LP feat. Del the funky homosapien, UK emcee Jam Baxter, bass guru Juan Alderete, guitarist Taka Tozawa among others…
Bonafide Magazine has premiered the new single ‘The Doors’ from Poe & CTZN‘s ‘The Good News‘ project. They had some interesting things to say about the lineup of the track and the project itself, which finds the California hip hop duo collaborating on their new quasi-conceptual album with friends big and small, from all different genres, backgrounds and locales including Albuquerque, Los Angeles, London, Oakland, San Francisco, Tempe, El Paso and beyond…
“When the term ‘supergroup’ gets bandied around its usually tied with bands ranging from the likes of Atoms For Peace and Madvillain to McBusted and The Firm…The Good News is a genuine supergroup though, a project spearheaded by California duo Poe & CTZN, featuring cult rapper Del The Funky Homosapien, Juan Alderete (The Mars Volta, Dr. Octagon, Jonwayne) and Taka Tozawa from Deltron 3030….Produced by CTZN with Juan Alderete and Taka Tozawa, we are premiering a new track from the troupe entitled The Doors. An extended posse cut of sorts, each MC takes their turn to spit over the hypnotic string-led beat…Dope artwork by Pete Cosmos.”

Throwback Thursday: Kimani Rogers (of Masterminds) on The State of The Music Industry…
In an interview given 10+ years ago, Kimani Rogers’ commentary on the state of the music industry still rings true…
“Stop being a sheep and think for yourself. On every level people are force feeding you what is supposedly “cool” and what isn’t. [Even] “Independent” it’s the same way… If we, as a world, keep subscribing to [this] “MTV” branding philosophy”, we will lose all ability for independent thinking. We will become a society of clones. All programmed to do the same shit. And think the same way…
In this rap shit people have these preconceived notions of what things are supposed to sound like, and what makes things more “real” and authentic, instead of just listening to the music and passing their own judgment. It’s turning into a high school popularity contest or something…[where] marketability is more important than actual talent…
That’s why I respect the Def Jux’s, the Rhymesayers, the Hieroglyphics of this world for doing what they want to do, regardless of what people think, and pushing the music forward.
