Whole Lotta Press

As we begin this thing called 2008, let's catch you up to speed with all the press that Nonsense artists have received in the past month...

First off, X:144 is featured in December's Remix Magazine, where he discusses his production techniques on M.E., and explains his strategy in winning last year's Scribble Jam Production Battle.

Orlando Weekly also had some kind words to say about Tablehogs when they previewed last month's show at the Social:

"Run-DMC was the first to say a DJ can be a band, and Rakim nominated him for president. And the turntablist – packed with an arsenal of tricks, scratches and cuts that blow the imagination – is the god of the mix culture. This night’s special edition of Yes Yes Y’all, Nonsense Records’ hip-hop showcase series, honors the turntablist tradition in grand fashion with a team of DJs acting like a band. In this ensemble performance of homegrown dynamos, beatboxer Rubox Cube and DJ J.Storm lay down the rhythms while DJ Sureshot and the ever-ill DJ SPS provide the melodic instrumentation. This crew packs laurels (DMC and Scribble Jam champs). Go to marvel at the talent that exists in our midst."

And finally, Hakim Tafari was mentioned in Orlando Weekly's '8 Albums To Watch In '08' list
. More info on that album coming to this spot soon...

Expect some big things from Nonsense Records in 2008!
