Sometimes going back to basics is all it takes to remember the beauty that lies at the root of something great. At the roots of hip-hop, now a global phenomenon that delivers words of hope and compassion to people in their own language, lie the guardians of its precious gem of simplicity. Shaheed and DJ Supreme are two of those wise men who remind future generations that all you need to tell your story are your rhymes and a beat to convey it.
The timeless duo from Birmingham, AL keep it real, using hip-hop to spread wisdom across their multiple LPs and live performances alongside artists like Scarface, Jurassic 5, Atmosphere, The Jungle Brothers and more. Over the years, they have represented Alabama under the label Communicating Vessels while promoting community initiatives through their nonprofit organization KRU (Knowledge, Rhythm, and Understanding).
Check out the next version of Shaheed's smooth lyrics and DJ Supreme's soulful production on the LP, The Art of Throwing Darts, featuring Jurassic 5's Chali 2na and Akil the MC, Percee P, Slug from Atmosphere and Raheem DeVaughn.
