About Me



The 45th parallel is our place of orientation. You can find us doing live shows in the mpls area. We prefer to be called a "live band" rather than a studio group, due to the fact that we perform live more then we record together. Our music is deeply rooted in politics, social unrest, and a love for the culture that is hip-hop. Oh, and most the time we're just staight on some emcee shit. We don't pretend to be what we're not, and we let our music do the explaining when it comes to who we are and what we are influenced by.
