Picture a musical landscape littered with artists within a plethora of styles. An over bloated industry with cookie-cutter, assembly line production and a dumbing down of lyrical content. That’s where we live today. There’s one man who has separated himself from this hum-drum musical world. His name is Dale Baker. Dale’s life as an artist started when he was four years old. He played the character of Little Leo Lenskivich, on the popular 80’s sitcom, My Favorite Communist. It ran on ABC for four seasons. Flash forward to 2007, when he released his debut album, World Anti-Famous with much fan fair. 10,000 album sales later and the critically acclaimed album is a must have for any music lover. Now Dale has just finished his second album, The Canary in the Coal Mine which will release on the LongRange/Koch label in the fall of 2008. Its one of the most anticipated indie hip-hop albums of the fall. Dale has performed thousands of shows in the past decade. Touring the United States and Europe with his live band, featuring DJ Gruv on the turntables. He has toured and performed with the likes of Atmosphere, Brother Ali, 2Mex, Pigeon John, Copywrite, Vast Aire, The Pharcyde, One Be Lo, Guilty Simpson, Mars Ill, Playdough, Three Six Mafia, Krs One, RedCloud, P.O.D., Norma Jean, and many others. He has recorded with the likes of Proof (D12), Bizarre (D12), Braille, LMNO, Awol One, Mars Ill, Playdough, Listener, Sev Statik, and many others. Dale has been on countless mix tapes and compilations. Along with his never-ending schedule he also works with BoomBox Entertainment, promoting concerts and artists. Dale also is the on-air host of The Detour Radio Show, which broadcasts the third Saturday of every month from 9pm-midnight on 560 AM in Detroit. He also writes for several magazines and fights crime. Dale Baker’s work is never done.

*Blue Collar Gentlemen - A Mid-West Hip-Hop Function*
USM and BoomBox Entertainment have collaborated to bring true school hip-hop back to downtown Detroit in the form of Blue Collar Gentlemen. Blue Collar Gentlemen is a FREE monthly event hosted by Origix & DC of The Zone Radio/2Raw4FM, held at The Old Miami on the last friday of every month. It is a showcase of the mid-west's dopest emcees in a 'Kill the BS meets Silver Mic Sessions' fashion. Its hip-hop to show the mid-west what Detroit has to offer and what the mid-west has to offer Detroit. It is hip-hop for the working class. It is hip-hop for the downtrodden. If you're broke, and sick and tired of the same ol' same ol' rap shows then grab your lunch pail and punch your time card as Blue Collar Gentlemen. Its hip-hop for you!
