Prolyphic & Reanimator / Ugly Truth

Strange Famous

PROLYPHIC & REANIMATOR step into hip hop’s commercialized wasteland with a chip on their shoulder, and an edge sharp enough to scrape the make-up off with their debut LP, The Ugly Truth. Sage Francis initiated this marriage of beats and rhymes by connecting a multi-talented producer (Reanimator) in Chicago with a highly skilled lyricist (Prolyphic) from his hometown of Providence. P&R became the first signed rapper/producer duo on the burgeoning Strange Famous Records label, and now the team is unleashing their ugly truth on the pseudo-beautiful public. Since his first release in 2000, Prolyphic has been an active fixture on the indie rap scene, and his reputation as a lyrical talent is hardwon. On The Ugly Truth, Prolyphic delivers his strongest work yet, dissecting the status-quo of our lives, feelings and music. His talent for catchy hooks and infectious wordplay make these blue collar anthems both entertaining and poignant. With two tours under his belt and multiple self-released albums in his catalog, there is no lack of experience or inspiration in Prolyphic's verses. SAGE FRANCIS, ALIAS, MACROMANTICS and B. DOLAN all appear as guest vocalists. (STREET DATE - 5/06/2008)
