Old Head Slang Bangaz

Slang Bangaz represent a changing of the guards in the Hip-Hop industry. They sumbolize a return of true craftsmanship and artistry...a dynamic fusion of slamming beats and extreme, "substance-filled" lyrics. Genuinely committed to the art of making gresat music, Slang Bangaz spend countless hours in the studio conceptualizing the essential fibers of every song and planning their transformation from "ragz to richez." To expreience their exciting and unique rap styles is like tapping into the X-files—It's sure to keep fans listening on the edge of their seats anticipating and wishing for more.

Afflicted by the troubles of their inner-city environment, the group was borne out of necessity when graphic designer/entrepeneur Anthony Dukes formed Old Head Records as a marketing strategy for A.D. Graph-X Design Company. The independent label serves as a springboard to catapult the talented members of Slang Bangaz into the limelight, instead of allowing them to succumb to vice and "stagnation in the hood"—a world plagued with sleepwalkers (those condemned to eternal dreams contrary to reality) whose "time and chance" has expired because of what esteemed psychologist Dr. Charlene Harper-Brown calls the "I'mo Syndrome." This syndrome confines its victims to perpetual procrastination as they walk around daily saying: "I'mo do this and I'mo do that, when in reality, they ain't go do jack!" Consequently, Slang Bangaz were forced to dig deep down within the deepest recesses of their souls and minds to find answers to the many problems that their environment presented. Born to families where crack cocaine was a major problem and urban decay was not a new concept, this was not an easy task.

Just as Aaron used words to free the children of Israel, Slang Bangaz gracefully command powerful words to describe the hell that many like themselves have been subjected to. They attempt to resolve some of the pain an dsuffering, while having a good time and celebrating life. A celebration of life is the impetus for all of the songs created by the duo. The songs describe the many facets of life experienced on a daily basis all over the world. Titles such as "Pain," "A Lil' Touch," "Bad Habit," "Too Thick 2B True," "Gunz & Ringz," and "Pimpology" are what many people can identify with—for some a reality, and others a fantasy.
