For those of you that fear that hip-hop is dead, look no further than Orlando, Fl to find the realness. The production trio of the Beat Ministry made up of founders JuniAli, AmIAm, and Shinobi Stalin are the new wave of hip-hop innovation both in production, and overall crew talent. Straight out “O-Zone†as often referred to, the founding trio have been pure hip-hop culturalists since their teen youths in the mid 90’s. Inspired by the phenomenal creativity of those golden years, the three found themselves in the center of their home town hip-hop spectrum by their jr. high and high school days, which they all attended together. Growing up alongside several young up and coming greats, the three decided to embark on taking their talent to a professional level. First was the forming of Opn Cpn (open Campaign) an M.C. duo made up of founder Am’s older brother MyGrane McNastee and Murdoc, which put use to JuniAli’s new found production talent in the late 90’s; then was AmIAm and Clarity forming the group of Elite Breed as the 2000’s ushered in. This collective caused the need for an abundance of beats that propelled founder AmIAm into production as well. Third founder, and also long time friend Shinobi was later officially added on to the crew to complete the team that would shortly there-after become the Beat Ministry Co. in about 2002.
Over the last five years or so, the Beat Ministry has absolutely taken their home town by storm, similar to the rain, thunder, and lightning that sweeps Orlando on a nightly basis. Broadening the scope by hooking up w/ some of the city’s most talented M.C.’s and producers, the crew has added on an array of new artists to continue their growth with the likes of Manifest (producer), Penmanship (M.C.), New Jersey import JBiz (M.C./producer), and most recently the super group complied as Vets of Kin (MyGrane, Murdoc, JBiz, Clarity, AmIAm, Shinobi Stalin, Tone Blare, and Power!). With tons of drive and new material, the crew has found themselves rippin’ down stages consistently at local Orlando, venues like the Social, Club Firestone,Will's Pub, the Backbooth, and the infamous AKA lounge which is also home to Spit Camp a monthly M.C. Battle co-hosted by founder AmIAm.
Besides having the O-Zone on smash, the Beat Ministry has loned their production and M.C. mastery to national icons like KRS ONE, Sean Price,Killah Army, Sabach Red (of Non Phixion), C-Rayz Walz, Cormega, and the Boot Camp Clik; as well as collaborating with Orlando’s hip-hop elite like Soliloquists of Sound, Critical Madness, Blackout, Grey Matter, and Tzarizm to say the least. In addition to opening up and promoting several big shows at home, recently the crew has been seen and heard in Detroit, NY, NJ, and the West Coast through numerous underground venues, radio stations, and college campus’.
The versatility of their production sounds accompanied by their bottomless pit of skilled M.C.’s make the Beat Ministry Co. an organization and crew to be reconed with both in the Hip Hop underground, and business driven music mainstream.Feelin' the music?
