Dj Muggs & Planet Asia : Pain Language (new)
DJ Muggs, inconnu du grand public, jouit cependant d'une solide réputation dans les milieux du rap hardcore et alternatif américain. De son vrai nom Lawrence Muggerud, il quitte son Bronx natal au début des années 80 pour la côte ouest où il monte un premier groupe DVX qui deviendra Cypress Hill. Il se lance en 1997 dans une carrière solo avec Muggs Presents The Soul Assasins. Il privilégie ensuite la production d'autres artistes. Il revient en 2000 avec le second volume de Muggs Presents The Soul Assasins II. L'album Dust paraît en 2003. En 2006, il livre le disque Grandmasters.
Planet Asia is well known throughout the hip-hop community. As a solo artist and one half of the duo Cali Agents (with Rasco), he has been tearing up airwaves and stages around the globe. Numerous banging 12-inch single releases including “Definition of ILL” (Stonesthrow 1998) “Place of Birth” (ABB 1999), “Pure Coke” (Interscope 2002), and “The Golden Age” (Threshold 2003) have ensured his place in hip hop history. In 2001, The Source Magazine named him First Round Draft Pick and gave him Independent Album of the Year credit for Cali Agents “How The West Was One.”
