Chops Horns - The Original Hip Hop Horn Section

About Me


In musical lingo, to have great chops means you're a great player. Most appropriately, the horn section known as CHOPS are indeed among the greatest players around. CHOPS HORNS started out doing recording sessions for a series of Gospel and R&B artists which led to a lengthy stint as the horn section for the historic rap label, SUGARHILL RECORDS. Next they served as the horn section for THE POLICE's "Ghost In The Machine - World Tour", worked on THE ROLLING STONES "Undercover", BOB DYLAN's "Empire Burlesque", PUBLIC ENEMY's "Muse Sick-N-Hour Mess Age", CHRISTINA AGUILERA's "Stripped", ALICIA KEYS "Diary Of Alicia Keys", "Unplugged" and "AS I AM", MARIAH CAREY's "Emancipation Of Mimi" and on the soundtrack of the movie "Glory Road".
CHOPS HORNS are music entertainment professionals with over 25 years of experience in the recording industry possessing the skills to create a unique blend of horn arrangements for any occasion.
