About Me

The Nauts' have landed! Take three of the most unique and skilled underground MC's from the gritty corners of NYC, bring them together through their love for the art of hip-hop, and throw in some of the most intelligent and powerful lyrics ever woven and you have....the d_Cyphernauts!!The Nauts are struggling to bring balance to the uneven landscape that the music industry has created in what used to be hip-hop. An art that was created to empower and entertain the people forgotten by society and popular music, has been turned into a tool to promote ignorance and stereotypes, while mentally and spiritually attacking the people it was meant to uplift and unify. The Naut's refuse to dumb down lyrical content to fit the mold. They stand for all that hip-hop was, all it should be, and all it can be if we support real MC's and not these fools being presented in heavy rotation on MTV, BET, and your local radio stations. The Naut's need your support and your feedback! Please leave your thoughts in our mailbox. Please check out our show dates, and come check us out live. And of course, you've got to cop your own copy of our self released EP "The Questions Tour" from the upcoming full-length album "Questions". All blessings to our friends and our foes. "Rise up with us! Stand up get up!"

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 10/17/2004
Band Website: antfarmaffiliates.com
Band Members: Othello: Coming out of Staten Island, He's glue that holds the Nauts' together. His unrelenting razor sharp flows and piercing delivery are the essence of controlled ferocity. Othello always uncovers the uncomfortable realities of his subjects, and smashes through tailored images.

Nemesis Alpha: Molded in the hip-hop cauldroun called the Bronx, Nemalpha is a deadly freestyle specialist. Battle tested and proven, he is always ready to deliver punishment on unwitting and overconfident opponents. His work as a member of the Naut's has broadened him into a truly rebellious and focused commentator on the ongoing ills of western culture, America, the hip-hop industry, and everyday life.

Influences: Rakim, Wu Tang, De La Soul, Jungle Brothers, A Tribe Called Quest, Public Enemy, Jeru the Damaja, KRS-ONE, Blackstar, COMMON, Nice & Smooth, Positive K, Big Daddy Kane, Pharoahe Monche, Mr.Lif, Gang Starr, Souls of Mischief, Rage Against the Machine ...
