BASS RHYME POSSE

First rap group in the Philippine hiphop scene.

Group members are Norman B aka Cool MC Norm, J Smooth MC and Andy Luv MD.

Why this name?
Back in the days (well,actually, until now), a basic drum beat from a drum machine or from a human beatbox is already enough to create music. Just add some lyrics to that beat and you already have a song. And that's how we came about the name "Bass" (beat) + "Rhyme" (lyrics)...

Band History:
During the 1980's when the Philippine populace was well-acquainted with the sounds of English-based bands otherwise known as "new wave" and with Madonna and Cyndi Lauper as the most influential female acts in music, another form of art culture was attempting to emerge in the United States known as hip-hop. It was when substances of this culture were introduced to the Philippines in the form of break-dancing that many Filipino teens became fixated in this unique method of dance. Mobile systems also became widespread as Filipinos hosting parties and gatherings required a more stimulating way of entertaining guests.

One of the many mobile systems then was from a village in Las Pinas named R.A.P. crew (Rock All Parties) which included in their display of skills what was known then as MCing, a type of crowd pleaser through chants like "Throw your hands in the air / then wave 'em like you just don't care" (as popularized by DJ Kool Herc) and also showed individual rap performances. The R.A.P. crew which was then consisted of Rapmaster Fordy (soon becoming more popularly known as Andrew E.), Cool MC Norm and Fresh Kid (Bass Rhyme's Norman B. and Andy Luv MD respectively) and others attempted to permeate the disco/club scenes as rappers by approaching numerous existing club managements to demonstrate their skills but frequently ending up being declined. Evidently, club promoters (and the Philippine public) during those days were not "familiar" with rap music. More often than not, they would chuckle as Cool MC Norm would execute his "human beatbox" skill which revealed apparent that various Filipinos were not ready for rap.

Equipped with a drum machine, wireless microphones and instrumental records from the likes of Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five, UTFO, Whodini, etc., the R.A.P. crew continued with their pursuit for rap to be recognized in the Philippine music scene. They would frequently perform as rappers into any invited gatherings. One major break for the crew came when Master Rapper Francis M. himself invited them to perform on his birthday celebration at a then 1980's famous TV variety show "Loveli-Ness" where Francis was a regular host. Another famous rap piece by the R.A.P. crew in mid 1980's was that of Rapmaster Fordy and Norman B's "Makati Girl - Live in Full FX" performance in Araneta Coliseum which was soon included in Andrew E's debut album "Humanap Ka Ng Panget" released in 1989. The said track acknowledged Norman B as the first known human beatbox and "fastest" rapper of the Philippines.

After being discovered at Euphoria disco, Andrew E. found fame as a rap artist. In late 1989, he introduced two of his friends from the R.A.P. crew (Norman and Andy) and another friend from his pop/breakdancing days (Jay, later known as J Smooth MC) to his then recording company Viva/ RJ records to form a rap group and release the first Philippine rap group album. Andrew E. initially suggested to them the name "Pine Rhyme" referring to Las Pinas being their native city. Pine Rhyme was immediately introduced to the media as the first rap group of the Philippines to emerge. They started performing and appearing as guests in Andrew E's concerts, as well as school and provincial tours. Thinking that the current name Pine Rhyme does not sound much of a rap group at all, the group eventually decided to modify their name to Bass Rhyme Posse.

Bass Rhyme Posse signed a recording contract with Viva / RJ records alongside with Markie D (later more popularly known as Denmark) with whom they became close friends with. Bass Rhyme Posse's music was inspired by numerous old school artists. From the politically charged style of Public Enemy to the rap ballad style of LL Cool J. But Bass Rhyme Posse was generally considered as RUN DMC's Philippine counterpart. Bass Rhyme Posse was also the first group to include on their album another DJ style of scratching called "Transformers" courtesy of Rod "DVS" Torres and DJ Paul of Murdertone on one of their tracks "Bad Trip". After recording nine tracks in a few months time, Bass Rhyme Posse was eagerly anticipating its' debut album release very soon.

But Viva Records' big boss Vic del Rosario has a different idea. He demanded that Bass Rhyme Posse come up with two more tracks that are of playful/ novelty in nature since it was during this time that Tagalog rap songs in the likes of Andrew Ford Medina, Luningning by Denmark and Maganda ang Piliin by Michael V were all topping the charts. Much to Bass Rhyme Posse's apprehension of releasing a dissimilar rap style from what they normally prefer, they released "Juan T." and "Basura" to delight the major record company.

However frustrating that their album release has been delayed by the company for months, the group unrelentingly heeded to the demands of Viva / RJ to continue performing on their scheduled appearances. These included both television and radio engagements as well as campus and provincial tours. In the early quarter of 1991 after a very long wait, their debut album was released. For many Philippine rap followers, the tracks "Let the Beat Flow", "Buhay Estudyante" and the love song "Ikaw Lamang" immediately became favorites but unfortunately Viva / RJ insisted that the novelty song "Juan T." be Bass Rhyme Posse's carrier single.

In 1992, Bass Rhyme Posse mellowed down from the Philippine rap scene. Norman, Jay and Andy though constantly in tune with one another, decided to pursue different paths of their line of business. Jay migrated to New York in pursuit of another profession. Later on, he formed an alternative rock band consisted of other Filipino artists called "Blok-Blok". Andy, being a registered nurse in profession, migrated and started a family at California in 1998. And finally Norman, arrived also in California with his family in 2001.

In 2003, they resumed communication with one another and apparently discussed the possibility of recording a much deferred follow-up album and concluding an evocative "unfinished business" in the Philippine rap showground. With Norman, Jay and Andy agreeing that such task is more than achievable through the facilitation of hi-tech computer communications and musical technology despite being in distant locations from one another, they contacted DJ Mick aka Spintech in Manila to provide assistance in this exceptional project which included the creation of the group's official website.

And now, with Norman B, J Smooth MC, Andy Luv MD and DJ Mick on the works, watch out for the comeback of a Philippine rap legacy, that of… BASS RHYME POSSE

Kulay

In Filipino, the word "kulay" means color, which best exemplifies the unique sound and style of this band from the Philippines.

Ever since they started, the pop sensation collectively known as KULAY (pronounced Coo-lai) has been making waves in the Philippines with their novel look and exciting public performances. In the world where "formula" pop music bands dominate tha market, KULAY has been able to distinguish themselves above the rest by creating their own sound out of a mixture of pop, dance, hip hop and funk styles. The result, is a sound that is so unique in the world of music that it can be called distinct, or truly "KULAY".

The band composed of Radha, Boom and Angel is Sony Music's latest signing to the fast growing Dance Pool Label, and is expected to make a very big impression on the music scene in the months to come. Their first record entitled VIBESTATION, is a compilation of some of the most compelling and interesting music to come around in a long time, and the entire project is being backed up by some of the best marketing tools ever seen in the business.

VIBESTATION in itself is a unique concept album that features musical and vocal seques between each track. "We really wnated this album to be different, so we planned whole VIBESTATION album around the radio program." says Boom. "The idea was, when you listen to the album, it is supposed to sound you like you're listening to a radio station called the VIBESTATION."

Sony executives have latched on to the VIBESTATION concept and everything being created around the band all go back to the same concept. When you look at our video, that opens with a chamber with several doors, and at the start of each video, you fly into one of doors which is the start of each video." says Radha. "So far, both of the videos that we've done have kept this single concept, and we hope to do a few videos around this to try to keep everything on the same vibe."

A lot of mention about their videos and artwork is almost a necessity in any discussion about KULAY for the simple reason that all these actually come from the band themselves. "Boom and Radha both dabble a lot in computers and actaully shot, edited and directed all our videos," says Angel. "It's really kinda cool that they do this, because what you see of us is basically what we are, nothing has been created.... Everything's all us."

KULAY's first single is the sassy dance tune " Delicious" which will have two videos accompanying the release of the album. The album version of the video is for television broadcast, while a special "remix" video which features the "Break Neck Mix" of the song will be exclusively offered to clubs. Sony Music is also preparing a wide array of merchandise around the band and the release of their album.

PBut more than just boob tube darlings of the new generation, what is it that makes Kulay tick? Mainly the vibe, that intangible something that gives their music the added kick. And it is this music that has gotten Kulay the attention they so rightfully deserve, locally and internationally.

Kulay spent the large part of August touring the UK. With "Delicious" single released there as an EP, Kulay was whisked into a tiresome tour that brought them to places they themselves have only dreamed of going. To update what we all known about Kulay, here's a list of what they've been up to lately, and it's definitely something that will make us Filipinos proud.

To date. Kulay has:

o Been on the cover of Echoes, a popular streetmag
o Been featured in a spread in Billboard
o Gone coast to coast all over England as part of Radio One Roadshow, Radio One id the biggest radiostation in England. They've shared the stage with the likes of Peter Andre, All Saints and others.
o Been guests in Galaxy Radio 102 Balloon Fiesta, dubbed the biggest party of the millenium.
o Attended the Wave FM party, which was also attended by some 60,000 people.
o Made an appearance on the Disney Channel, Nickelodeon, Blast on Trouble TV, and Big Breakfast (the #1 breakfast show in England).
o Recorded some scenes for the Columbia TriStar movie "Virtual Sexuality" which premieres in UK on November. Word has it that two of their songs are also included in the soundtrack. Whether their scene makes it to the final cut of the movie has yet to be seen.
o Been on club tours all over UK and graced the opening of one of London's hottest clubs, Heaven.
o Participated in Popkomm in Germany where recording companies show off their top international acts. With other guests 2 Unlimited, Solid Harmonie, B*Witched and CecePenniston.
o Been on the other TV programs such as Buzzin'Birmingham Live and other live shows in Manchester and Newscastle.

With their management in UK (Clare Shave, who has also managed acts like D'Influence, M People and Zhane), Kulay is being handled by Brilliant, the same team that handled the Spice Girls, 911 and even David Bowie. More shows are being booked by their agent Mission Control. Dr. Martens and Adidas are sponsoring the UK stint.

On the other developments, Kulay's single "Burn" will be remixed by Norman Cooke of the UK-based group Fat Boy Slim. Here at home, Boom and his gang's pet project will soon be underway. Aside from his own music label Vibestation Records (which includes R&B hip hop act Seven Shots of Wisdom and underground rapper Syke -- toutes the Tupac Shakur of the Phils.), they are also putting up a show on ABC 5 called "Vibestation TV Show." which premiers this month. Fondly referred to as "X Generation Sesame Street," its aim is to "edutain" (you know what that means) even viewers who are predisposed to channel-surf. The weekly journey to the Vibestation, with colorful hosts and celebrities also visiting in will have a very short segments that are very innovative and as shocking as they are entertaining. The dynamic out of this world visuals provided by David "DFX"Yu&Boom, the duo that directed the Award winning MTV's of "Delicious" and "Shout," will, according to Boom, "take the show to another level of visual imagery that the local viewers haven't seen before." One last thing, this ain't MTV.

So, DO YOU GOT THE VIBE?
