BIO
While Chicago may be the "Second City" to New York or Los Angeles, the second city to Chicago is a not-so-little city in the Northwest corner of Illinois called Rockford. It's the home of Gweez, Hollywood and Tapeman, collectively known as The Bridge.
The hip hop trio formed in Fall 2006 after the three longtime friends decided their individual perspectives on life and hip hop could combine to give the game just what it's been missing. Their chemistry has been undeniable from the start, as the group quickly recorded their debut LP, The Chosen Few, released in February 2007. The high-energy album brought The Bridge local celebrity status as they opened midwest gigs for a diverse roster of national acts including NaS, Snoop Dogg, and T.I.
Never content and always anxious to get back in the studio, The Bridge released its second LP in September 2007, titled Training Day. The full length disc was met with widespread critical acclaim as it showcased the lyrical depth of the group's MCs, as well as the reach of cosmopolitan producer Tapeman.
The Bridge kicked off 2008 in grand fashion, performing at a sold out House of Blues in Chicago with Talib Kweli. With multiple full length projects in pre-production, a busy performing schedule ahead, and a clothing line in the works, The Bridge's momentum is only building in 2008.
