The Good People - Any Rapper Video
---------- Saint was born and raised in Long Island New York. The
same area that produced hip hop legends such as Rakim,
De La Soul, EPMD, Keith Murray and Leaders of the New
School, among others, so it's not surprising that he
fell in love with hip hop at an early age. He played
drums as his first instrument and at age13, got his
first drum machine and Tascam 4 track and began to
make pause tapes by layering samples over drum
tracks—using the lowest string on a guitar to play
basslines and rhyming alongside his cousin (now known
as Anti-). By age 17 he bought his first ASR and
began to get serious about music production. Saint
enrolled in culinary arts college, but soon found that
his love of cooking was no match for his love of
music. He enrolled in audio engineering school,
where—after getting through high school with barely
passing grades—he became a dedicated student with 4.0
GPA.
Saint parlayed his engineering skills into a part-time
temporary job offer with Brooklyn's Seven Heads record
label. While there, unbeknownst to his bosses, he
took advantage of his access to the company's master
reels and remixed two songs by Unspoken Heard, one of
the label's flagship artists. Impressed by his work,
the label included the remixes on the group's “48
Months” album. Opportunities to work with Seven Heads
artists J-Live, Wordsworth and Kon and Amir soon
followed. Before long Saint was offered full time
work as the label's studio manager and given the
opportunity to record his own album.
Released on Seven Heads/Uncle Junior Records in 2004,
Saint's "Grown Folk Music" included guest appearances
by Mr. Man (Bush Babees), Grap Luva, Vinia Mojica,
Tiombe Lockhart, Reggie Watts and others. But Seven
Heads wasn't immune to the struggles facing the music
industry and before long the company chose to shift
its focus from running a record label to music
promotion and marketing. Undeterred, Saint
independently released "Variety Hour" (mixed by DJ
3D), in 2005, a mix CD of his production for other
artists during those few years. He then began work on
what would have been his next solo album.
For one of the songs on the album Saint tapped Emskee,
a DJ/Emcee who was known at the time as a resident DJ
on 99.5 WBAI's “Underground Railroad” show to perform
scratches, but after learning of Emskee's lyrical
abilities the two formed a musical bond that led Saint
to scrap his solo album in favor of a group project
with Emskee. Billed as “The Good People” the group
released an EP on Germany's Mad Flava Record label in
2006, which featured El Da Sensei (Artifacts), Mr.
Man, Kool Kim (UMC's), Cadence (Raw Produce), Dr.
Becket, Dumi Right (Zimbabwe Legit) and Prince Po
(Organized Konfusion). They followed soon after with
their debut album on Japan's Goon Trax/Media Factory
label. They built on the success of those releases
with a number of international releases, including a
second album on Japan's Revolution Records. The group
also caught the ear of hip hop legend MC Serch (3rd
Bass) who said "The Good People are that lost soul of
hip hop...I love listening to their music. It is grown
folk hip hop for all ages." Saint continues to build
his reputation as a producer and MC. He has worked
with an ever-expanding list of artists in the US and
abroad and was even tapped to perform a commercial for
Nickelodeon's Spongebob Square Pants.
Now, a few years after never completing his solo
album, Saint returned to the drawing board and
emerged with "About Time" on Pro Se/Domination
Recordings. He is joined on the mic by Cadence, Dumi
Right, NYOIL, Mr. Man, Eternia, Emskee, Muneshine,
Anti-, Honey Larochelle, Verses, Dr. Becket, Mr.
Complex and El Da Sensei. With a mix of Hip Hop, R&B
and Soul, Saint brings audiences a taste of New York
hip hop from its pinnacle point, providing a unique
vibe, but with a sense of familiarity. For listeners
who have been awaiting the return of hip hop with
substance, it's “About Time.” - Pro Se Recordings
