“We have signed to a new upstart label, Gold Dust Media Intl., who have been very supportive of our creative outing, it’s a no questions asked full artistic control situation and we are loving it. Mike and I are in the studio monday through thursday (when we’re not out on the road) pumpin’ out what we feel like is some of the best yet - With everyone around going off in different creative directions we decided to return to the hardcore fun body rockin’ showstoppin’ boom bap that we need. There is a def. void and we are making the joints to fill it. And we feel it. We know you will too” - Thes One
