About Me


Since forming in 2005 The BASIQS have successfully mixed razor sharp lyrics with a soul and classic rock edge,to create a truly unique sound. From producing their own tracks to creating their own marketing materials, these socially aware, avante-garde, risk takers, are quickly proving themselves to be true renaissance men. Their debut LP "Your Life is Calling", has received rave reviews, while turning those that even hate rap music into fans.
With songs that encourage, empower, and inspire, GAGE, (Producer / Emcee) and Mr.Sin, (Emcee/ Crooner), have coined the term "Legacy Music" to describe their sound. The BASIQS strive to create music that will be as poignant and valid 10 years from now as it is today. From first listen, to the first time you see their stage show its clear that everything this group does for comes from a pure unpolluted love for the Hip Hop culture.

Painting With A Tricycle

PHIL HANSEN!!!When I first saw Phil's art work I was stunned, (as I'm sure most people are.)Poignant, creative, witty, political, Phil IS his art. When I finally had an opportunity to establish a dial...
