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 ...
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!"

Since 2006, THOR Takeover has been giving artists a medium to be heard and present their product to the public. From day one to the present day, we have seen a number of talent. Some of which have decided they wanted to represent the label, all were more then welcome to use the events as a catalyst for their own movements.
Now, 3 years strong, we decided it's time to go for the Philly Hip-Hop awards coveted "Best New Record Label" accolade. Anyone who has encountered THOR, knows it's all about the movement through music, and supporting REAL Hip-Hop on an international scale.
Please follow this link and nominate THOR for "Best New Record Label":
Sorry for whoring my music on your page. It's a necessary evil, for independent musicians and artists though. I guess I owe you one. Really. Hope all is well in your universe.
