   About METAL HILL
During the late 90s the city of Philadelphia was responsible for some of the decade’s most influential music acts. Philadelphia artists such as Beanie Siegel, The Roots and Jill Scott experienced unheralded national success. The success of these and other artists not only reminded the rest of America of the role that Philadelphia played in Hip Hop history and music in general, but it also sparked a new movement of artists that helped cement the city as one of Hip Hop’s main stomping grounds.

Although many of the artists that experienced this success are no longer in the national spotlight, there is a new movement taking hold in the same city. The name of this movement is “Metal Hill.”

The movement consists of front-runners “Chose” (Artist/Songwriter/Producer) and Diamin (Artist/Producer/Musician) along with the Metal Hill band. “Metal Hill isn’t just a group, it’s a lifestyle and movement. We call it a movement since we want our music and what we stand for to appeal to the world.

With a style of music that doesn’t only rely on sampling, due to both Artists’ abilities to play instruments the duo produces music that’s original and influenced by an array of genres.

From the heavily piano and bass laden song like ”Hollywood no more” where Diamin displays his prowess on the piano, to the trance sounding synth-heavy “Velvet Pillow” where Chose belts a falsetto and raps, Metal Hill’s music refreshingly borders on alternative but keeps within the true elements of Hip Hop. “We try not to think in a box or a particular genre when we create. We just create based on how we are feeling.”

According to Metal Hill, their movement is also out to restore the lost art of the live performance. Their live show which has an array of instruments that can display more than one guitar and a bevy of synthesizers.

“At the end of the day we are all performers, but what you perform while on stage should always be superior to the way you perform while recording in a studio. We are here to restore that rule. The live band aspect element and our abilities to play instruments helps us control our music and deliver it to the public the best way we can.”

Metal Hill's has shared the stage with acts such as Day 26, and Floetry to name a few. They have also played at every major Philadelphia venue. The group's strong songwriting and their ability to adapt to any genre, has them poised to make their mark.

Their music is definitely genre bending but not in a way that will turn off the Hip Hop fans or the casual music listener.

“Hailing from Philly where those closest to us have been involved in the daily struggles whether it be drugs, trouble with the law or the general feeling of hopelessness, people tend to be surprised when they hear the music we make. We make music that will hopefully touch the masses."

i seen your video posted on onsmash.com and i honestly was just assuming it would be some other ghetto rappers spitting over a wayne beat or some bs but i was blown the fuck away i stopped everything else i was doing, i even put the blunt out it was that serious. the music world needs more people like you in it and it has inspired me to return from a creative break from recording
