Band/artist history
Ambush Records, founded in May of 1998 by Al. Gibson. The first song recorded by Ambush was “Can’t Fucc Wit Me” (Lil’ Dirt). This song was recorded in 1999. After recording this song, Ambush took the CD to the local radio station and they were begging for a radio edit! The people of Gary also gave a positive response to the song. Ambush released “Tha Struggle” in May of 200o. The theme for this album lso became Ambush’s motto, “Support Hip-HopSupport tha Struggle”. “Tha Struggle” which is the debut album of Ambush Records, is a collective effort between all Ambush artists. This album represents what Ambush artists have seen or been a part of living in an urban community. This album represents the atrocities committed against our communities by the federal government, corporations, and even our people. In other words, this album represents life In September of 2000, Ambush became the featured artists on garyrap.com. This is a site promoting Gary, IN artists. Garyrap.com receives approximately 3000 hits a day, according to webmaster Keith Harwood, who said that “Ambush, they’re my favorite Midwest artists.” In October of 2000, Ambush did it’s first show together as a crew. This show, which was in Detroit, was located at the Tropical Hut. Ambush rocked the show! The crowd was begging for more material which prompted Ambush to begin recording their debut album. In December of 2000, “It’z a Struggle” reached #3 on mp3.com.au. Ambush was getting numerous e-mails requesting copies of the hit song. In May of 2001, Ambush was asked to appear on “Midwest Mobstaz 2”, a nationwide compilation CD, however due to certain discrepancies of the agreement, the deal was never made. In August of 2001, Ambush was interviewed by Matt Sonzala of Murder Dog Magazine who said, “Ambush has some very tight material”. After several disagreements, in 2003, the members of Ambush went their separate ways with everyone working on separate projects of their own. In 2004, Vingence began working on his album and bought the Ambush Family back together. In June of 2005, Ambush released the debut solo album from Vin (Vingence), “Dat Fire” which went on to sale close to 4, 000 units with sales in CA, IN, IL, FL, AL, MI, Japan, France, and Germany, with basically no promotion. Ambush’s next project is from Lil’ Dirt, “Tha Beast is Here” to be released in Summer 2006.
