“The WordSmiths are an innovative hip hop group from Lakeside, California. The group consists of three members: Solicit (aka - Joshua Jackson), Enormus (aka - Norman Long), and Jaw Jargon (aka - Mark Lendy). Solicit and Jaw Jargon are cousins. Enormus is a long time friend of both of theirs. They first started rapping together in 1999, where they would just get smashed at parties and freestyle to guitar riffs and random instrumentals. As their passion for rap grew, Solicit and Jargon began writing songs and recording them on a dual sided karaoke machine. They would make full tracks on cassette tapes with whatever beats they could get their hands on. They kept at it and eventually the recording process was upgraded when Enormus bought a Boss SP sampling workstation and a keyboard, and they were able to start making tracks with their own beats. In 2003, the WordSmiths finally got access to a home studio set up with Acid Pro 4 and a cheap microphone. They wasted no time and started putting out CD's around Lakeside. In 2006, Solicit pressed up a limited number of copies of the WordSmiths 1st album “Aggressive Intellect”, & sold them hand to hand around San Diego, CA. Currently, Solicit has a project studio that he uses to produce and record all their music. The WordSmiths have been going strong now for 10 years, and they just finished their sophomore album "End of Discussion”, which will be officially released on July 18th, 2009. Solicit is also branching out and recording a solo album, "Door to Door Sales," which is scheduled to release in 2010. The WordSmiths have the desire to bring hip hop's conscious back, and their mission is evident in every verse. Keep an eye out for these guys in the future because they are definitely 3 of San Diego’s finest MC’s.”
