Session

Session delivers his rhymes as if the next word he spits will make your brain explode. Forceful and deliberate in every sense, this Hartford, CT bred, Bronx native MC forces you to watch while he playfully makes every beat his bitch. Initially discovered by PMD of the legendary Hit Squad crew (EPMD, Redman, Keith Murray, Das EFX) at the age of 18, Session has been slowly developing under the radar into a conceptual monster of mythic proportions, set to storm the scene to the sound of collapsing buildings and the screams of those who slept.

Substantial

When Substantial was recording his debut album, …To This Union a Sun Was Born, he was driven by adversity. The Maryland native was struggling to balance school with a budding music career, was homeless at times and still reeling from having buried more than ten friends and family members. The resulting album—produced by Nujabes and Monorisick of Hyde Out Productions and released in October, 2001—earned Substantial international critical acclaim and a particularly devoted following in Japan, where it was recorded and distributed.

PackFM

Futuristic Mastermind? Female Magnet? Fairly Magnificent? Freestyle Majesty? While the world ponders the meaning behind the initials attached to the end of PackFMs moniker, after the release of his debut solo album, whutduzFMstand4?, FM will stand for Finally Makin it. Its not everyday that an artist can release his debut solo album already embracing the title of legend. PackFM has set stages on fire in the fierce New York battleground and beyond for over to a decade. With his off-the-top tactics and knack for clever punchlines, PackFM became the MC to battle and the MC to lose against.
