RHYMEFEST:
Few rappers can brag about defeating the lyrical wizard Eminem in one breath, and in the next, stake claim to music’s most coveted prize - a Grammy Award. Che Smith is a revolutionary artist, writer, and activist. The South Side Chicago native has been a trailblazer in music, television, and politics. 2 time Scribble Jam emcee battle winner Rhymefest came into the national spotlight after co-writing "Jesus Walks" with his childhood comrade Kanye West. Venturing into politics, 'Fest ran for Alderman of the 20th Ward in Chicago in 2010. A vocaladvocate for Hip Hop artists worldwide, he once sippedtea with David Cameron and invited the future British Prime Minister to go clubbingwith him. He has also appearedon Last Call with Carson Daly, ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live and even voiced a puppeton Comedy Central’s Crank Yankers. http://www.ElChetheMovement.com

QWEL & MAKER:
Recognized internationally as one of the most skilled and innovative lyricists since Hip-Hop’s inception, Qwel is not your average ambiguous applause monger. Producer Maker has spent the past 12 years honing his production talent, releasing a barrage of albums/45s/remixes, and spending a lion’s share of his non-studio time on the road. Partnering together on The Harvest marked the beginning of a collaboration, the depth of which we’re only now beginning to understand. Qwel & Maker later collaborated for the album So Be It. The critical success of this album led the duo to make their occasional collaboration official with their 3rd album Owl on Galapagos4.
