Their sound has been described as "A Tribe Called Quest meets
Final Fantasy", and some listeners have even made comparisons to
The Roots and Outkast. But forget a classification, this is just
exceptionally good, unique, and timeless music.
Panacea is based out of the Washington DC area where producer
K-Murdock, a Maryland native, has provided his fantasy hip-hop
soundscapes for soul singers such as Raheem DeVaughn and Wes Felton (aka "The Crossrhodes").
Emcee Raw Poetic, a long time resident of Northern Virginia who
originally hails from Philadelphia, has been rhyming since the age of
14. His natural, almost conversational flow and signature storytelling
lyrics fit perfectly with K-Murdock's soulful and sometimes spacey
compositions.
Their obvious chemistry is incredibly rare, and favors such
accomplished duos as Gangstarr and Pete Rock & CL Smooth. Whether
they're in the studio composing music or on stage performing
live, Panacea has all musical bases
covered!
