Memphis' 1st Hip-Hop Unification Summit: Recap

We were invited to participate in "Memphis' First Hip-Hop Unification Summit" to showcase different hip-hop acts that are located in the Memphis area.The event was to highlight the Memphis rap and hip-hop scene. Memphis is thought of nationally in terms of Three 6 Mafia, Yo Gotti, and 8Ball & MJG, all roughly similar artists. But the scene has grown more diverse — and, as a consequence, more fragmented — in the past decade. Independent promoter Kaviar Lewis put the spotlight on the local scene by bringing artists from different strands of the Memphis hip-hop scene together for three showcases at three local venues in a self-described "unification summit". We were honored to had been a part of this. Our style stands out from the average hip-hop act, but we weren't aware of the other acts in the area that were just as different as we are. There were five acts the first night, including us. There was so much love and support that night. We had the chance to be exposed to a crowd that wouldn't have normally seen us. It was a much needed event for Memphis.

AA Makes List of Best "60 Seconds" in 2010

Okay. We did a "60 Second" segment with LIVE FROM MEMPHIS (LFM) a few months ago and it turned out pretty well. However, we didn't expect it to be one of the "BEST" clips for 2010 according to the LFM Staff. There were many to choose from and we are very honored to have been a part of the few chosen. Thank you. We really appreciate it. Congrats to all of the other talented people who were chosen as well. This our 15 minutes of fame!! ;) Check it out!!
