About Me



Hip Hop - Rap: Under The Lights - Flowalition - Just the Beginning Saturday, November 01, 2008 | by Nicole Cormier Doesn’t it seem like when everything is going great something comes up and throws a wrench in your game? Well that is Boulder hip-hop duo, Flowalition’s story, but both these local soldiers won’t let a little bad luck stop their mission of making real and honest hip-hop. Marz and Briz Ill met in high school in 1996, and together created Flowalition with their ambition of creating gritty yet intelligent underground music. They started battling and freestyling at parties as teenagers, and haven’t stopped yet. They have opened for many legendary MC’s such as Nas, Immortal Technique and GZA and helped Boulder’s scene become a thriving hip-hop community. Recently Marz has found himself in a bit of trouble, which has required Flowalition to take a temporary hiatus. Briz is holding it down for the pair and is feverishly working on completing Marz’s solo album and the sophomore Flowalition album. Briz has found support in the local community and has teamed up with Uneek MC while awaiting Marz’s release, and they are experimenting with new styles and techniques. I recently found out about Flowalition at a show at Herman’s Hideaway and noticed Briz’s considerable talent. Sporting a “Free Marz” shirt, my interest was piqued in this local story that is nowhere near finished. Marz and Briz are what I would call raw, both in voice and lyrics. They rap about real issues, and reflect their influences, namely Wu Tang. The obvious commitment that Briz shows to Flowalition is admirable and I have no doubt that once Marz can rejoin the team that they will have many doors open up for them. This story doesn’t end here and I look forward to writing about Flowalition’s success in the future. Buy all the new Flowalition songs right here powered by SNO CAP

Influences: Life & Death Flowalition has been together since 1996. Marz & Briz met while in High School and have been recording music together ever since. Flowalition has opened for such acts as Nas, Immortal Technique, Gza & R.A. the Rugged Man to name a few. Their sound is very dark with complicated rhymes and song structure. Their debut album "13 Days" was released July 10th 2007. Flowalition has worked with many producers over the years but finally found the production they were looking for from Grafik, from Proximity. After rocking countless shows, freestyles, battles, and fake mcs hearts right out their chest, Flowalition is ready to take the underground by storm. With endless rhymes from Marz & Briz, expect to see many more projects to be released within the next few years. Briz is currently recording what will be the "Free Marz Mix Tape", and also working on the "iLL Behavior" project with Red 5. Get ready for the Halfway House project! Marz plans dropping his solo album sometime in 2009, followed by the next Flowalition album. "13 Days" is dedicated to the memory of Ben Barlow, Rest in Peace.
