Soup or Villainz
From South Bend, Indiana, this group of high class villains consists of Remi-son, Viet Vu, and a slew of henchvocalists. These Soup or Villainz are out for world domination... Not for power, but because it's just something to do. Along with their hypnotizing beats and lyrical mysticism, they use their strong intellects to turn the youth into mindless zombies one song at a time.

sAMPLE tHE mARTIAN
sAMPLE is verbal wizardry over unconventional combinations of Funk, Electronic, psychedelic, darkness, and Hip Hop. It is fearless and inventive Nerdcore from the cosmos. Multi-instrumentalist eMpyre ramireX engineers, codes, and assembles multi-dimensional sonic landscapes and lyrical mindfucks for deep thinkers to relate to. Each song is like one of those photos that from far away might look like Yoda, but when you get closer, you realize that each pixel is an individual picture from Star Wars.
