OLD MONEY

About Me


OLD MONEY is a NYC/Vancouver music collective, by way of Jamaica, Guyana and Poland, that has been described as having a dynamic "world town sound." OLD MONEY has been featured by XLR8R, URB Magazine (URB Next 100, Spring 2009), GIANT Magazine, and more. OLD MONEY has also performed and DJ'ed alongside the likes of The Cool Kids, Thunderheist, My!Gay!Husband!, Purple Crush, among several others. Their new single "Ackee & Saltfish", named for Jamaica's national fruit/dish, is currently being played out by selectors the world over, i.e. Steve Starks (Nouveau Riche, DC), DJ Sabbo (Soulico,Tel-Aviv/Mad Decent affilliate). OLD MONEY's debut EP, No.1 Champion Sound, is available on itunes now.
"The Future of [music] in NYC" -The Culture of Me
"[Old Money's sound] kinda sux" -My!Gay!Husband!
"Old Money isn't just rapping, they're playing with beats more complex and influenced than anything we're hearing right now...Throwing in some grime, hip hop, baile funk, afrobeat, even dancehall riddims, whisking them together and garnishing with their saucy vocals, "yeah baby I'm the man..." Old Money is seriously a dish best served loud." -Ecoutez!
"Their sound is something you’ve never heard before...A myriad of percussion from electric beats to African drum rhythms, a pulsating bass, intelligent transitions, and verbal skills to tie it all together–this is Old Money." -String Magazine
