"Cheap Meat Suits' (Rarefied Heir) hiphop has the distinction (indeed, the virtue) of being very original.
It's hard to find a match for their type of music."
-CHARLES MUDEDE, The Stranger, Seattle, WA
"Cheap Meat Suits (Rarefied Heir) offers a magnificent record that quakes with ache, disappointment and mystery."
-LEAH SOTTILE, The Inlander, Spokane, WA
Rarefied Heir is the umbrella that covers a handful of hip-hop musicians from the Seattle rain.
Life in Podunk Spokane made them disillusioned intellectuals. Through their struggles, we find beauty, growth, and character. Our raps are intelligent, angsty, sensitive, nihilist, and absurd. Bipolar beats will punch you in the face before caressing your skin.
Each Rarefied Heir member has a solo project, several groups, and collaborates globally. Fans of Anticon, Def Jux, Stones Throw, Ninja Tune, Rhymesayers, Mush, Warp and Duck Down would like us.
The next Variables album (post-production) features artists Myka 9 (of Freestyle Fellowship, Project Blowed, Haiku D'Etat) and M Sayyid (of Antipop Consortium).
Rarefied Heir artists performed with Inspektah Deck (Wu-Tang), The Pharcyde, Myka 9 (Freestyle Fellowship), Del tha Funkee Homosapien, 2Mex, RA the Rugged Man, Akil (Jurassic 5), Hangar 18 (Def Jux), P.M. Dawn, Cryptic (Atoms Family), Typical Cats, Living Legends, Dulok Shaman, LoDeck, ShapeShifters, SpecsOne, Eric Beats, Bayliens, Labtekwon, Josh Martinez, Silent Lambs Project, Iame (Oldominion), Common Market, Animal Farm, Cancer Rising, and Lifesavas.
In the Puget Sound, we have booked Neumos, Nectar, Chop Suey, Tost, El Corazon, LoFi, Jade, Bob's Java Jive, Zippy's, Studio 7, The McLeod Residence, 1st Thurs Art Walk, and more.
In Spokane, we play The Knitting Factory, The Blvd, The Zombie Room (Spread), B Side, Fat Tuesdays, Mootsys, Prago, Caterina, The Vault, Empyrean, Tiger Bar, etc.
We have been asked, "Why the shell?"
Our former name was 2012 Recordings, inspired by the Mayan apocalypse prophecies. In classic Mayan art, conchs are shown being utilized in many ways including as paint and ink holders for elite scribes, as musical instruments like bugles, and as hand weapons. The spiral of the shell suggests the golden ratio, which is sacred geometry in occult spirituality. Additionally, we are representing Seattle, and wanted a nautical theme. The shell no longer coincides with the name, but our influences haven't changed, so it stuck.
"Rarefied Heir" is a play on words.
"Rarefied air" is thin air at high altitudes. Rarefied means: less dense, esoteric, very high, elite. Then, of course an "heir" being someone who receives a prized endowment, rank, or title. Pretentious aristocracy.

Die Bereitschaft, den Dingen auf den Grund zu gehen und sie zu Ende zu denken, hilft, die Erkenntnisfähigkeit zu entwickeln.
Zu der Selbsterforschung gehört nicht nur, unser Handeln, Reden und Denken zu hinterfragen, sondern auch auf verborgene, unterschwellige Motive und Einstellungen, Ängste und innere Widerstände und Widersprüche zu achten. Viele Verhaltens und Reaktionsmuster, die einmal sinnvoll waren, laufen in bestimmten Situationen automatisch ab. Manchmal führt eine Einsicht zur inneren Verwandlung,aber oft ist sie nur der erste Schritt.. Noch mehr zu diesem oder anderen Themen könnt ihr in meinem Blog Lesen.
