Bio:
Spiff used to be a twelve-year old boy when Krisis was a 12 year-old boy. They were unaware of each other’s existence. Spiff made raps after a rowdy middle school party in which Busta Rhymes was played (some people even swore!). After which, he knew what he wanted to do: be a gangster. Four days later he decided to write about society. 2 years later, Krisis was busy spelling words with unneeded k's when he met Spiff after showing Spiff his neat-o book of poetry. Spiff found it quite rad and decided they better join up to fight crime, terrorism, and reality TV shows. 5 years later some more again, they had made a bunch of records and played a bunch of shows and jumped around while making fun of their dead serious music. To this day they dream of touring for long periods of time because that would be rad like 80's terms for "cool." Currently, Spiff and Krisis are recording new music that should be available in late April. In a little over a year, SPiff and Krisis have played with larger acts such as Afroman, Wolfpac (ex- Bloodhound Gang), Karmella's Game, and I Voted 4 Kodos and have played over twenty concerts up and down the east coast.

We will play anywhere, any time. Our love is the stage. The best moments are either when a song falls apart and Brad starts breakdancing and I battle a random kid in the crowd, of when we play Leaf it Behind and get four crowd members up on stage to create an air instrument band to finish the song.
