About Me

NOW AVAILABLE AT SHOWS! HOPEFULLY ONLINE SOON!
With so many here today, gone tomorrow "hip hop" acts one outfit remains consistent in their boom bap philosophy and practice, Numbs. EmCees' Mark Dago, Gunnar & Rooster display a bona fide blend of microphone mastery while DJ Shanty flexes his confidence on the 1's and 2's. After years of rocking sold out shows with locals and national artists alike they continue to strike a nerve in your music library with release after release. There is something for everyone here from the die hard descendents of Public Enemy, Eric B & Rakim and BDP to the new jacks of 2007 and beyond. It's difficult not to feel NUMBS..sometimes cold, ever so often mean, occasionally fuzzed, repeatedly rhythmic and smooth proving that this collective stands out as one of the most progressive cliques to carry on tradition. Stories, samples, style and swagger is just a sense of what they portray. Their authentic, infectious love for this culture and years of dedication and a mutual love for the music they make is what they are. ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------- NUMBS music has been licensed and appeared on MTV, VH1, NBC, ABC, CBS, UPN, Showtime, ESPN, Fox Sports and several other networks. ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------- NUMBS music has been licensed with video games PIMP MY RIDE, FINAL FIGHT, PROJECT GOTHAM RACING, STREET RACING SYNDICATE, NBA JAM as well as several others. ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------- NUMBS music has also been licensed and appeared in movies ALPHA DOG (Universal), CROSSOVER (trailer on Sony), YOU GOT SERVED (international trailer on Sony), CUTTHROAT ALLEY (Barnholtz Entertainment) and more.
