New York Rap Acapellas Vol 1

‘New York Rap Acapellas Vol 1’ from Monster Sounds is a fresh collection of royalty-free Rap Acapellas from some of the best MC’s in NYC. Many times in the studio you hit a wall when making a tune. The need for an MC to take the track from being great to an all-time memorable banger is so simple but tricky if you don’t know any decent mic controllers.

Monster Sounds label bosses Aquasky/BlackNoise have been fortunate over the years to have befriended and associated with many great vocalists and here they compile the first of what will be many Rap Acapella packs for the professional and the bedroom producer.

Their ‘go to’ man for this pack was friend Dan Walker (aka the awesome NineLives The Cat). Residing in Brooklyn, Dan has appeared on many great House and Breakbeat tunes over the years with appearances on projects by Kelevra, Rennie Pilgrim, Diverted and as guest MC on the recent Black Noise sample pack on Monster Sounds.

Dan is also part of the helter skelter punk thrash Rap outfit The Deathset, signed to NinjaTune, who have been lucky enough to have had both Diplo and SpankRock adding flavours to their sounds. Ninelives the Cat tongue-in-cheek style is reminiscent of Beastie Boys and Run DMC back in the 80’s.

Backing up NineLives are 4 other talented micsmen. Firstly we have Telle Gramz aka Bathroom Sexxx, a highwire lunatic MC from NinjaSonik based in Brooklyn. Telle adds the heat with his constantly evolving, next level vocal delivery and destructive content. Next to the front is Pablo Pleeeez!, a multi-talented human being that can bring the flavour from any which way. With his new band Boy N Girl making waves in the NYC scene, this Brooklyn MC is forging his own relentless path.

Johnny Nelson has been a staple part of the Brooklyn scene for many a year and from the same winning bloodline as Telle Gramz and has been tearing stages with his hit single ‘Put Em In A Body Bag’. Johnny is a super skilled emcee that observes the territory ahead and wrecks it accordingly; one to look out for.

Finally the mighty Anton Glamb, who runs the successful night ‘Radical Outing’ in Brooklyn. A figurehead to the local scene and a friend to many around New York. As an MC, Anton brings a unique quirk to the expected. He is the unexpected!

‘New York Rap Acapellas Vol 1’ is a great collection of original vocal performances which can be used for all styles of Dance music, from Breaks, Dubstep, House and Drum and Bass.
