You know the feeling when you were younger that you never truly grasped at the time? When you had the whole world to conquer, no serious responsibility, each day presenting a different opportunity, all with this feeling of excitement and ambition flowing through your veins? This feeling flows through the music of Bradley, an up and coming hip hop talent that you dont want to sleep on. Somewhere between the old and new school, between underground and mainstream, between bad-ass and heartbroken this music lives, compelling ears from teenagers to full blown adults with inspiring lyricism and honesty all at the same time. The group is composed of Bradley: polished emcee , alongside Ryan Williams: Jedi Producer. Originally from the mid-west, now making heads nod in Los Angeles, Bradley is the poster child for what an emcee is not supposed to look like. This only pushes him harder pulling in more listens with witty tunes like Soccer Moms, to stories of dysfunctional relationships as in She Said / He Said, to pure hip hop anthems such as Verbal Backflips. Bradleys music stems from positive influences, auto-biographical tales and daily observations all set to the backdrop of some of the hardest knocking beats in this hemisphere. Enter Ryan Williams, eclectic musician / production / engineer extrordinaire. Ryan artistically lays the canvas for the painting which Bradley lays his vocal brush. Influenced heavily from electronica through metal, Ryans hip hop instrumentals dare to go far from the stereotyped montonous looping in hip hop. He is able to use all in his musical arsenal including: piano/synth, strings, guitar licks, thick basslines and tight drum kits with variable changes throughout each composition. With nothing ahead of them but passion and opportunity, the team has set on a tour-de-force to turn the music industry upside down and make this happen now. Coming to a record store near you.
