Too many times people bang you in the head over and over about how incredible thier music is and when you do check it out, over half the time it's not worth your precious listening time. If you're into infectious, quality hip hop with solid lyrical content, THE GOOD PEOPLE are seriously worth checking, not to mention supporting!
Emskee (the mc) and The Saint (the producer) have recently joined forces to create a group that aims to satisfy the beat fiends, lyric listeners, dancers, and last but definitely not least, the ladies that support the hip hop movement.
Emskee, from the Lower East Side in NYC, has a storied history in the music game and is a well traveled dj who currently spins on the Underground Railroad radio show on WBAI 99.5fm every saturday night in New York City. He's most recently "melted" the mic on the now legendary international dance track "Let It Go" on Ten12 records (released last year) as a part of the TOGETHER BROTHERS collaboration which sold out quickly in Japan, England, and Sweden. His voice is commanding, yet soothing to the ear and grabs attention.
The Saint, a Long Island, New York native, is a low key personality who has produced many notable artists in his so far impressive career such as rappers J Live, Wordsworth, El Da Sensei, Asheru, and singer Vinia Mojica to name a few. He dropped his critically acclaimed debut album "Grown Folk Music" in 2004 and also has production credits for a handful of German rapper releases. Saint's style displays soulful influences and he's been known to carry some tunes or drop some quick rhymes on his projects from time to time.
THE GOOD PEOPLE's aim is to provide and maintain a high profile standard of awareness
on issues that confront us everyday but aren't readily talked about nearly enough. At the same time, they help you to keep focus with a variety of toe tapping, sore neck tracks that'll have you pushing that "repeat all play" option on your system. Hey, THE GOOD PEOPLE aint' bad at all.
Myspace Image Help News(August 16 2006): Its the middle of August already? Did we skip dates on the calendar and I wasnt notified? Summers moving quick. Just as well. That just means we are that much closer to watchin the Mets in the post season. Now lets get down to business. The Good People EP put out on Mad Flava records has just been released so I suggest to all the DJ's you go cop that, you won't be dissapointed. 5 Good People joints including some nice guest appearances by El Da Sensei, Cadence, Mr. Man, Prince Po, Dr. Becket, Kool Kim and Dumi Right. These are 4 of the 5 songs on the EP we got playing on here. We also just shot a video for "These Times" which was directed by a talented director from Malaysia by the name of Momo. Be on the look out for that in a month. We are also working on puttin together some live shows in the near future. Anybody looking to Book The Good People can hit us up here and if the schedule is open we will be sure to come through and tear the roof off the mutha.
News(July 20, 2006): We got some things cookin up in the near future globally and we will keep you posted as things progress. For what can be said for The Good People at this moment is some of the releases coming up. First off is a 12 inch EP that will be put out by the label Mad Flava Records located in Germany. The EP will include 5 songs and an instrumental. It also has some good guests on it so be on the look out for that within the next month or so. If needed we can give some of you DJ's mp3s for your Serrato, you little cheaters. Just kiddin, I know it takes a load off your back when havin to carry the vinyl to gigs. Next thing you know your enjoying as many free drinks as possible to take your mind off the sharp pains felt in your back and upper arms from heavy lifting. I don't want you to hurt yourself. C'mon, its The Good People. We help you out any way we can. On another note, we will also be releasing an album in Japan on the Media Factory label. I was told they did work for Pokemon over there. For some reason it was so intriguing. What's bigger than Pokemon? Finally the last thing to note is the release of the world wide album to be released on Peoples Choice Records. The album is called "The Art of Business" and it is 18 tracks of The Good People givin you that vintage classic hip hop sound that you have grown to love. As if this wasn't enough to quench the thirst of the avid hip hop listener, we brought some friends along just to take it to that next level of enjoyment. Guest appearances include El Da Sensei, Mr. Complex, Oktober, Cadence (Raw Produce), Mr. Man (Bushbabees), Prince Po (Organized Konfusion), Kool Kim (UMC's), Dumi Right (Zimbabwe Legit) and more! Ooooh weee! That's a lot of hip hop! Stay Tuned for more things to come. Peace.
