In today's hip-hop and R& B, the consumer is becoming more intelligent and demands tracks to be more musical. Musical hip-hop instrumentals are proving to be the future of hip-hop. Music has always been the way to a person's heart and soul. Music, to an extent, controls listeners. The "Pied Piper" effect hits you when you're in a club, the car, or when you think no ones looking.
James "Jam" Johnson and Craig "Soopafry" Frierson formed PSIQUE from the word psyche, which means spirit or soul. Jam, a member of Kappa Kappa Psi Fraternity and Soopafry, a member of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity combined their greek affiliations to pronounce PSI-QUE. These two have unique styles in music and blend to make a lethal and very tight production team. A combined musical backround of 30 years allows them to be creatively unlimited. Most of PSIQUE's works and arrangements do not depend on samples and come straight from the soul. Their musical influences range from Mozart to Dr. Dre. As you listen to the selections on this cd you will hear the influences and the limitless skills for yesterday, today, and tomorrow's sound. From melodic, to rough and innovative, PSIQUE will be eating from a big plate very soon. Let PSIQUE touch your soul.

Do you play live?
No, just producing, arranging, and programming.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It helps up and coming artist get inexpensive exposure. We do believe that the bigger you get in the business, the more it will hurt because of that same easy access.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Yes, it depends on the deal. Obviously it depends on what they could do for me that I can't do myself.
