They're the 1st UK act to be signed to the label and deservedly so! These guys have been killing shows across the country for minute now!
As a bonus for their fans, The Scribes breakthrough LP “The Sky Is Falling” is now available exclusively as a free download from Kamikazi Records
Here's an excerpt from their press release!
THE SCRIBES The Scribes are a new wave hip hop four-piece consisting of co-lyricists Ill Literate and Loki Steele, beatbox maestro Lacey and turntablist Kenny Hectyc, whose unique talents have combined to make a much heralded sound quite unlike any other in the scene today. The Scribes push the limits of the genre to almost breaking point, mixing live instrumentation with traditional hip hop sampling and bolstering beautiful and moving musicianship to block rocking beats, creating an intricate yet booming backdrop for the MCs quickfire flows. This unique blend of ground breaking productions and raw hip hop elements has garnered The Scribes a sponsorship deal with ethical clothing company THTC (www.thtc.co.uk) as well as critical acclaim worldwide, including being named the proud winners of the Exposure Music Award's “Best UK Urban Act 2012”. Their renowned live show is widely regarded as one of the finest on the road today, featuring phenomenal freestyles, breakneck beatboxing and seemingly limitless energy, and has seen them share the stage with the likes of De La Soul, Macklemore, GZA, MF Doom, Souls Of Mischief, Tanya Morgan, Ugly Duckling and Akil The MC to name but a few, as well as winning the group recognition in the form of the EatMusic Radio “Best Live Act 2012” Award, a special mention in the NME “Guide To Glastonbury Festival” and also in the Venue Magazine “30 Best Live Shows” feature. This combination of must-see stage show and a refreshingly original approach to hip hop music has earnt The Scribes a deserved reputation as one of the most talented up and coming artists on the worldwide scene today and we are proud to have them call Kamikazi Airlines home.
