OBX & Red Eye to collab on Ep for the New Year

OBX - Evening Comes prod by Ill-Mind

Red Eye - Step Aside prod by Dj Qvali

San Antonio Tx MC OBX & Queens Ny MC Red Eye, have linked up together for a colabritive Ep that is scheduled for release at the beginning of the New Year.  There is no title to the project as of yet, but you can expect some heavy-hitters on deck for producers(will be posting that on next post).  You can check out both artist's respective work above.  Looks like its starting off to be a great year for Hip-Hop. 

Commercial perfect for OBX's MCDBCS Ep!!

Although this commerical is about Energy Saving, this is what Middle Class Dream's, Blue Collar Schemes Ep is all about. When life gets you down, get back up!! Real life situations!!! Stay Tuned!!

Thanks to all the Blogs & the Artist for Rage

Before I move on with the Middle Class Dreams/Blue Collar Schemes Ep, I do want to thank all the Blogs(HipHopdx, 2dopeboyz, Nahright, Eastsidemorales, Onsmash and many more) that showed support for The Rage Ep that Tech & I put together. With 'ALL' the singles & ep downloads, it was over 8000+(not including the 2000 cds that are out there)combine, along with the video 'Evening Comes' getting hit more than 35,000 times & 'BombShit' video being feat on SXSW 11.  Not bad for an underground artist out of San Antonio Tx.  Of course with all the featured artist, producers, videographers, promoters & graphic artist that contributed to the project, I don't think it would of been as big.  I can't wait till the new Ep hits.  You Will NOT be dissappointed!! Oh, and this site is getting a make-over real soon!! Stay Tuned!

QB & NaScent interview on Thisis50.com

So the email is blowing up on...'when is the project dropping...is there a date yet?'...Not quite exactly, but I will say this, I've got some producers on board for this shit & the tracks are coming out...oh-fish-al(official; for you non-lingo mofo's). I am working with QB & NaScent on this project.  Not familiar? Listen to this track they prod for ya boy 50Cent, yes...50Cent.  They've also prod for Joe Budden, Lloyd Banks, LEP & some others in the game. Expect the blogs to blow in July with OBX & Tech's 'Middle Class Dreams, Blue Collar Schemes".

OBX & Tech-Neek's New EP Title & The Meaning Behind It

Middle Class Dream's, Blue Collar Scheme's will be the title to OBX & Tech's new EP(this is not the cover).  We decided to go with this title because of the fact, that if you come from poor circumstances, you at least want to reach the middle of the social ecomic scale. The ironic thing, the middle-class is fledging & disappearing by the second.  According to experts, 10% of the nation represents the wealthy, so the way we see it, for the 90%, this Ep is dedicated to yall. Expect the project to drop in late June, early July.

Next Possible Artist for OBX & Tech's New Project here.......

Already worked with Skyzoo(1st cat to spit on here for all u non-hiphop heads out there), but next artist I'm planning to work with may possibly be on this vid/track for the new project...hmmm. Stay Tuned!



Expect OBX & Tech to drop a new project in June/July

OBX & Tech's new Project should be dropping towards the end of June/July.  More than likely it will be another FreEP, so expect some heat for the summer.  With 3 tracks done already, this is turning out to be that raw shit everyone is asking for!!  Title & Artwork coming soon!
