The Breakout of Breakout Ft. Mr.Phormula

Today we bring you an extra special, micro-podcast that is all about something we are completely proud of.

One day, MissFortune and KendeR got in the lab and put together some beats.

KendeR brought over his equipment and record stash and MissFortune started to pull together drums and samples and came up with a bunch of beats.

When the beats were put together we had hoped for nothing more than to get some work done with artists who we profile on our little show that we call 1520 Classic Radio.

Well...we heard Mr.Phormula on a track called "Hiphopishiphop" with the legendary KRS-1.
What struck us about Mr.Phormula is no just his rapping, but his beatboxing, something that MissFormula and KendeR are in awe of as an art form.  On top of that, Mr.Phormula raps in Welsh, which sparked our imagination.

So, we hit up Mr.Phormula on Twitter after listening to Cymud, his album and several other tracks he's put out and we could only say...he's worthy of blessing us.  With hat in hand and an earnest tweet, Mr.Phormula passed his email address to us and we filled up his inbox with some heat.

Within the day, we had a beat selected, and fastforward a week or two...BANG!  We have a track that Mr.Phormula not only rapped and beatboxed on...but also enhanced with a Mr.Phormula twist of warming the track up and amping up some elements.

With 3 brains working in unison we birthed a fantastic track.  We can't thank Mr.Phormula enough.

So let's hear this AWESMAZING track and listen to MissFortune and Kender giggle like school girls in excitement as we debut "Breakout" on 1520 Classic Radio::

DO YOU WANT TO BE PART OF A RADIO REVOLUTION?

You know we do Podcasts, live broadcasts every Saturday Night but....Do you want to be part of a Radio Revolution?

We could just play any old Hip-Hop, like so many other stations do....but...what about you, the Artist who wants their time to shine?

We have opened a new RADIO STATION that caters to you, the Hip-Hop consumer, fan and also contributor!

In the radio business, there are plenty of "Gatekeepers" that say "NO!" in getting music played. Let's face it, it's a greedy industry, but a necessary evil of music promotion.  

Though we have a few rules in getting your music aired, the one GOLDEN RULE  is this : Make sure your tracks are AMAZING!

We have our supporters from around the globe, including Mr.Phormula, Marc Vinyls, Ace of Spades, and the list goes on, who contribute their tracks regularly and help push the Hip-Hop community along

Who are we?  We are MissFortune and KendeR, podcasters, radio personalities, beat makers, and the list goes on.  

We have worked with may artists such as Royce Da 59, Cormega, A.G. of Diggin' in the Crates and so many others....

EPISODE 11 - STRAY THE RABID DOG AND SNUD

Sometimes there are great hip-hop duos, like Dj Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Price, Pete Rock and CL Smooth, and even Gangstarr...but what happens when you take an Emcee from Southwest England, UK and a producer from Edinburgh Scotland, UK who have a chance meeting in the hills of Spain?  You get Stray the Rabid Dog on the mic and Snud on the beats!  And they are simply an outstanding duo.

We dedicate a whole show to playing the EP and breaking down the tracks and discovering who the heck these two guys are, and how they met.  It's an in depth review, playback and discovery on our podcast!

Stray the Rabid Dog appeared on the 1520 Classic Radio show's segment called "It Came From the Streets" with the track "The Drifter", as found by our own MissFortune.  From then we discovered other tracks as well, such as "Zombies" and "HipHop Hopscotch".

Once we learned that an EP was being released we had to get our grubby little mittens on it.  You can catch it on Datpiff.com.

Stray the Rabid Dog is housebroken, only breaking your speakers with Snud's tight production and precise use of the appropriate break.

So make sure you have your rabies shot, put on your headphones and zone out to REAL DEAL HIP-HOP!
