IN THE PAST YEAR THE ARCHRERVILLE CARTEL HAS BEEN TAKING THE INDIE HIP HOP SCENE BY STORM. WITH FEATURES ON ALLHIPHOP.COM, 93.9 WKYS, INDIEHIPHOP.COM, URBAN FLAIR UK, FOR THE DMV ONLY AND PO POLITIKIN THIS DUO HAS BEEN EXTREMELY BUSY. SINCE THE BIRTH OF THEIR GROUP IN NOVEMBER 2011 KLAZIK AND ITS THE KONCEPT (BETTER KNOWN AS ITK) HAVE RELEASED THEIR 'NO HANDOUTS' ALBUM, PERFORMED NUMEROUS LIVE SHOWS AND GAINED MORE THAN 150,000 VIEWS ON YOUTUBE.
I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CELEBRATE THE DUO'S 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY IN A SMALL INTIMATE SETTING (WHICH IN MY OPINION IS THE BEST WAY TO SEE A PERFOMANCE) AND BETWEEN KLAZIK'S SMOOTH LAID BACK STYLE OF RAPPING AND ITK'S ANIMATED 'STAND ON YOUR FURNITURE' STYLE IT WAS AN AWESOME SHOW. THE TWO TOLD STORIES OF HOW MUCH THEIR LIVES HAVE CHANGED SINCE THEY STARTED AND YOU COULD REALLY TELL THAT THEY ARE LIKE FAMILY AND THEY ARE A MATCH MADE IN HIP HOP HEAVEN.
THEY PERFORMED SOME OLD JOINTS AND A FEW NEW ONES AND BOUGHT OUT OTHER INDIE ARTISTS SUCH AS BRIX AND SANURA. CHECK OUT THE FOOTAGE FROM THE EVENT, FOLLOW THE GROUP ON TWITTER, AND PURCHASE THE 'NO HANDOUTS' ALBUM ON iTUNES.
Thank you for this post!
