Kid Syc@Brandywine

The people said they needed a break from the sameness. There was no creativity. They had given up hope and fallen out of love with Hip-Hop. Then, along came KidSyc@Brandywine.

In early 2010, KidSyc recieved an e-mail with the subject line, “We respect your MC abilities…”. This e-mail, sent by bassist Charles Hodge eventually ended KidSyc’s year-long search for a live band and sparked what was soon to become an artistic force to be reckoned with.

With a pair of plaid pants and an undenialby magnetic sound, KidSyc@Brandywine captivated crowds at the 2010 Savannah Urban Arts Festival and broke the monotony of Savannah’s Hip-Hop scene. Listing influences like Earth, WInd, and Fire, Radiohead, J. Dilla, Eminem, and Stevie Wonder, (to name a few), its no wonder a song like “Different” serves as a great snapshot of what these guys are all about.

If you take the thoughts, ideas, and emotions of your average misfit, sprinkle in some new-found confidence, and spread it all across a bold and adventurous soundtrack. What you will have is a KidSyc@Brandywine song…… and a new favorite rap.

P. Blackk has came to the rap game to change a lot of misconceptions. The art of females that do more with their vocal abilities than their sexual appeal is fading away fast. P. Blackk strives to bring the “female rapper” back to the forefront. Blessed with a unique voice and lyrics that can match most male rappers, P. Blackk is releasing her debut album, “My Own Reality Show”.The album is 15 tracks of pure energy complimented with insightful lyrics. P, Blackk is able to go from playful teenager to serious poet easily.Lead by her first single, “Goin 2 Da Party”, which showcases P. Blackk’s ability to have fun on a record, this album is all original production with pounding bass lines mixed with soulful samples. Songs like “Serious”, “You Wanna Fight”, and “I Run This” showcase P. Blackk’s ability to transition from a teenager to skillful rapper. “Angel”, “Turn Around”, and “My Life” shows P. Blackk in a more poetic form.P. Blackk’s goal is simple…”I don’t want to be the best FEMALE rapper. I want to be the best RAPPER…PERIOD!” raven2
