"the Visionaries have not only shattered the rules of hip-hop,
they've redefined them"

"merely damn-good tracks are the exception,
with f*cking great being the norm"

it has become their breath and life."

We Are The Ones (We've Been waiting For), their 4th album, captures the Visionaries in a writing frenzy, tackling a wide range of topics with absolute fervor. Coming from diverse backgrounds and different walks of life, each crew member blends brutally-honest reflections, confessional narratives, and self discoveries, shaping a very powerfully personal record.
Amongst the groups six members (LMNO, 2Mex, Lord Zen, Dannu, KeyKool, & DJ Rhettmatic), the Visionaries have released 4 full-length albums as a group on Up Above Records, Galleries (1997), Sophomore Jinx (2001), and Pangaea (2004), We Are The Ones (we've been waiting for), and over twenty solo and side projects.
Touring the U.S., Europe and Japan over the past 12 years, Visionaries have gained a reputation for their explosive live show.
Pushing forward independently and spreading universal love through art, the Visionaries are breaking down barriers with their own brand of message music. The group was acknowledged for their positive impact and contribution to hip-hop, and were formally inducted into the Universal Zulu Nation. Their music was also featured on the MTV feature film "Volcano High," the Warner Brother's box-office hit "Oceans Twelve," and one of Midway's best-selling video games "NFL Blitz."
The Visionaries have done it all, and they're just getting started....
