Since it's gonna be another long vacation we might as well give you some goodies to get you over the weekend..This is the first Hiphop group that released an album under Cebu City's 6000 Goonz Label... Before Dice & K-9 became popular here and abroad... Their group was called Anthill Mobb which is composed of K-9, Pain & Dice...They've been makin' & sellin their music independently in Cebu... The trio released there first album in 1996 entitled "Modus Operandi" and followed it up in 2000 with their Album "All Art is A Game with & Fight Against Chaos" and it is also the year that the group and 6000 Goonz roster was featured in "Vibestation's Urban MYX"... where everyone became aware of the growing Hiphop scene in Cebu... In the said episode... their first music video "21st Century" from their second album was aired... But after the album "Pain", they went on hiatus... A couple of years they were reborn as Dice & K9, and they took over the airwaves with their Mega-Hit "Itsumo"... Then the rest is history...

Certified Classic !!!
Back in the Day when everyone just keeps on making their own albums or compilation... A certain DJ known as Arbie Won came and changed the game...He broke the bandwagon or outdone the other DJ's or artists did before him...And this was through his mixtapes..Yes you read it right Mixtapes and not MixCD..Yeah we still use the word Mixtape even if it's already in CD format... But what im trying to say is that this guy is already making Mixtapes on Cassettes independently when no one else does... He Released different Mixtapes from Party to Reggae Mixes..Until in 1999 he released the Now Classic and Rare "United Freestyles v.1 which features 40+ MC's doing their own Verses... Included in the album are then unknown artist like K-Nut, Rapskallion, Trife-1 (now known as JOLO),2tay, Artstrong & Pamilia D. to name a few..Old timers Syke, Dash of Legit Misfitz, Urban Flow, Madd Poets, BB Clan & ill-j of SVC also participated on the Mixtape that was released independently through Gigs, word of mouth orders and on some skateboard & Thrift Shops... Then in 2003 the much anticipated and the first ever DJ Album entitled "United Freestyles v. 2" which contains all Original Tracks from the Dopest Rappers here in P.I. was released commercially and bagged 3 trophies on the 1st Philippines Hip-Hop Awards... After that a lot of People keep on asking where is the "vol.1" ? and there are also stupid m*thaf#ck@rs said that there were no vol.1 was released before...So to put all the rumors and arguing to rest... We at SoulSonic asked the man himself for a CD format (coz we only had it on cassette) of the Mixtape...But he gave more than what we asked for..He allowed us to give it as a Free Download here at SoulSonic...So to all the heads...here is your chance to have a copy of the Classic Mixtape...Take it as an early Christmas Present from us... Peace....

Old Skool Fridays: "Fratsta" - Death Threat
Who wouldnt have heard or knew the 1993 Smash Hit "Gusto Kong Bumaet"..from the debut album of the Pioneer in "Gangsta Rap" here in P.I..."Death Threat" !!! which is composed of the founding members Genezide & Beware...This album is filled with Hard-Core tracks that tackles on different subject matters..like "Pesteng Anay" a track that is about AIDS..then "Bantay Salakay" where the group talks about Corrupt Officials in the Goverment... Mastaplann was featured on "Kickin Lyrics" and aside from that...Mastaplann together with Andrew E. & DJ MOD were the Producers of this Album.. But among the tracks that ive mentioned..."Fratsta" is still my Favorite..the track that was made 14 years ago is still up to date...this song is about Fraternity/Gangs's Hazing,Wars & Other negative aspects of it. Perfect example of this is the recent Death of another College Student Chris Mendez who died because of severe injuries caused by violent hazing...R.I.P Chris Mendez..So all you peeps out there listen to this Track... "Fratsta"
ComeBack to Back !!!
In 2003 we witnessed Lady Diane's comeback on P-Noise v.1 Compilation..and we even seen her on a TV Interview mentioning that she has an album coming out..But unfortunately up to this day we haven't heard of anything yet..then in 2004 another pioneer artist in the local hip-hop rap scene came back..and he goes by the name of Denmark..He released his comeback album under his Blind Rhyme Productions.. and features appearances by his fellow old skool rappers Michael V. & Francis M...
