  • Bio

    .. .. ..NEFEW - Antihero Begins.. .. .. Free full length album/mixtape presented by 2dopeboyz/okayplayer & Puma. Click on image to download! .. .. ...... .. .. Innovating and thought provoking are just two in a long list of traits that NEFEW (New Education from Every Word) possess. If you carry on down that list of adjectives you will find educated, experienced, understanding, inventive, proactive, dedicated and inspired, you get the picture? .. .. Stamped with an American/Swiss postmark these two exchange students are modern day majors of Hip-Hop Culture. Infused with a melange of various musical sounds and inspired by rock, soul and pop, Polemikk and PA-Double are easily recognized as Switzerland’s number one urban music export. .. .. Their eclectic fusion of catchy hooks, exceptional wordplay combined with a meticulous narrative has allowed the duo to enhance their position in Hip-Hop by performing at a variety of international festivals and opening for Hip-Hop icons such as Nas, De La Soul, Talib Kweli and Dead Prez. .. .. The duo who met at Kindergarten, have gone through life experiencing the things kids do; skateboarding, break-dancing and graffiti. With the culmination of all these Hip-Hop elements an integral part of their lives, it was a natural progression for them to then delve into the world of producing and rapping. .. .. And it was while experimenting with this aspect of Hip-Hop culture that the long time friends found themselves smitten. Creating music and lacing it with their own stories and opinions was to send them on a new voyage of both, discovery and fulfilment. .. .. Not adhering to the blueprint followed by many of their peers, Nefew were determined to encourage their own definitive sound at the earliest stage of recording. “If you were to ask Curtis Mayfield, Alicia Keys, Bill Conti and Ennio Morricone to produce a Hip-Hop record, they would probably come up with that typical Nefew sound,” explains the Polemikk. .. .. “It is definitely music that delivers a lot of emotion and depth,” he concludes, something that is easily apparent upon listening to tracks like Biko from their recent Homesick EP which sees them call up G.O.O.D Music recording artist Consequence and soul sensation Lenny Harold. “We hope people get inspiration from our music and maybe take new ideas on every day life and how they can improve it.” .. .. But their positive and vibrant approach should not in anyway be misconstrued as preaching. “We are not preachers of any kind, we strive to be political and conscious without forcing ourselves to be political and conscious,” they state. “At the end of the day we are human like everyone else, heroes with a million faces.” So it is hardly surprising that this unique approach concocted with an abundance of positivity and professionalism caught the eye of sports apparel giant Puma. .. .. Annointed Opinion Leaders for Urban Lifestyle by Puma International, Nefew are the first Hip-Hop act to be endorsed by the company, which sees them take a pivotal role in Puma’s re-launch back into the Urban Lifestyle field. This flourishing relationship has seen Puma back projects from the duo, including their recently released Homesick EP and their forthcoming mixtape in conjunction with the premier Hip-Hop blog 2DopeBoyz.com. .. .. “Delivery, punch and dynamics are always on the top of our lyrical menu,” the duo state and with their music gracing some of the Hip-Hop world’s most poignant sites, another endorsement deal with www.capdigger.com and storming up the US College Radio Charts with Biko it looks like Puma are not the only folks who recognize the potential that these guys exude. .. .. With a bevy of material to their credit, the support of a global fan base and media paying close attention to the moves they make, it is inevitable that this multi-faceted combo are poised for immeasurable success. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. span gig="ya">.. .... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..www.oofrec.com!
