Sometimes, returning to fundamentals is all it takes to remind you of the beauty at the roots of something great. At the roots of hip-hop—now a global phenomenon that speaks words of hope and compassion to people in their own language—are guardians of its precious gem of simplicity. Shaheed and DJ Supreme are two such sages, reminding future generations that all you need to tell your story are your rhymes and a rhythm to run it through.
The timeless duo from Birmingham, AL keeps it real, using hip-hop to spread wisdom through their multiple LPs and live performances alongside acts like Scarface, Jurassic 5, Atmosphere, The Jungle Brothers, and more. Over the years, they’ve rep’d Alabama under the Communicating Vessels label while promoting community-based initiatives through their non-profit K.R.U. (Knowledge, Rhythm, and Understanding).
Catch the next iteration 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.
