Influences	SEATTLE HEMP FEST- The festival wasn't all politics. Dozens of vendors sold the usual hemp products -- including brownies, soap and sandals -- as well as tie-dyed shirts, incense, drums and other merchandise reminiscent of Grateful Dead shows. Some people came for the hot bands, including Genus Pro, a rap trio commanding a rapt audience as it wailed, "Higher than cocaine, higher than weed, higher than methamphetamine or Ecstasy ... Don't be afraid to fly. We can touch the sky." The fact that Hempfest attracted its largest-ever turnout this year reflects "a clear recognition on behalf of Americans that the drug war has failed," said Holden, the festival director.

Sounds Like	Genus Pro, Grow, 2004 GENUS PRODUCTIONS.Review by Todd Cooper, Eugene Weekly 4/08/2004 "Oh, did you say Genus Pro? . . . Naw, I said Gee's Pizza Panino." West siiiiiiiiiide (of 11th) represent! Looks like local cats Genus Pro are going to be the ones to put Eugene on the map for hip hop. Fresh out of shows opening for KRS-One and Living Legends, the guys just celebrated the release of their debut cd, Grow. The disc is quality, positive, independent hip hop music. The three very distinct emcees (Marv Ellis, Metric and Elea'zar) gel well, passing the mic with ease while DJ C4 holds it down on the wheels of steel. Lyrics are well thought-out. The interludes work and production from GP and the Corbin Brothers (Raging Family) is skin-tight. "Day to Day" flows with strings and beautiful background vocals lended by Stephanie Ponso. "Flip & Unfold" will definitely get the heads bobbing, although it might be a little too tricked-out with vocal effects. "B.O.K." is kinda ballsy, using Annie's "Hard Knock Life" after it was so huge for Jay-Z, but it comes off hella clever. Other tracks that "straight bump" are "Can't Fake the Funk," "Higher," "Three Course Meal" and "I Am." Think hip hop don't live in Eugene? Pick up Grow and let 'em learn ya. Available at www.genuspro.com and local music shops throughout Oregon.
Record Label	Raging Family / Genus Productions
