Amidst the painfully boring and monotonous hip-hop scene today, there are a few artists still exhibiting the kind of enthusiasm, passion, and skill that made us love the genre in the first place. Enter Phynite. If you were forced to sum up his vision using one of his own lines, "I wanna bring together old and new school, wisdom and experience with bold and youthful", could very well do the trick. His music is a true representation of him as a person; sometimes happy, sometimes sad, sometimes confusing, but always done with purpose and executed with precision. The formula is simple; beats, rhymes, and heart.
Rhyming since the age of 14, Phynite, now 24, has been rocking shows in Pennsylvania and beyond for the last 4 years alongside friend and deejay, Unit 13. Armed with a captivating voice and a razor-sharp delivery, Phynite's performances are extremely energetic, interactive, and thought-provoking. With over 100 shows together under their belts, this dynamic duo also performed at the legendary Scribble Jam Festival in Cincinnatti, Ohio in 2007, Poramor 2 (central PA's only hip-hop festival) in 2008, and has opened up for hip-hop greats The Wu-Tang Clan, KRS-ONE, Black Sheep, and The Pharcyde.
Phynite's newest album (alongside producer extraordinaire, The Visiting) "A Step In The Right Direction" was heralded "by far the best local hip-hop record that I've ever heard," by Dugan Nash of Pennsylvania's own, Fly Magazine. Also, Indie-Music.com named him an "Editor's Pick" for 2007, and gave his song "Where The Road Ends" an honorable mention nod for the "Top 25 MP3's of 2007". Phynite's latest project, "Large Talk," is set for release in the spring of 2009, and promises to exceed the already high standards he's set for himself.
BOOKING AVAILABLE FOR: bars, clubs, music venues, youth centers, churches, festivals, birthday parties, and just about any other place or event you can think of. Please e-mail phynite@gmail.com.

Hey Phynite, just got your package in the mail and it is stacked full w/goodies! Double congrats on your marriage and grad school, will do my best to spread your music around Albuquerque, I know a lot of people so far, so I am sure your music will spread itself evenly.
What's up, my brother!? Feeling that track enough to bless it? Hit me up and let me know! Hope God is blessing you with the skillz to bless and release the prisoners! VICTORY, my brother... for ALL. Peace and blessings. Another example of the style of artwork that the digital comic book/graphic novel is going to be created in... haven't decided if I'm going to do full color or a style similar to Frank Miller's "Sin City"... should be dope either way.
