Mr. Sith's Bio: Little is known of this Sithlord whom came to existence in the human form of an emcee in the early 1990's. A fierce lyricist, Furious formed his styles in the Southern California area crushing mortals from L.A. to the I.E. It wasn't until 1997, when the Sithlord met Aluwi 7, that the 2 began spreading the deadly virus of DEMENTED BEAT APOSTLES to the masses with the debut album Who is DBA?(circa 2000). Few have been left alive long enough to relay the details of their physical encounters and the metaphorical mayhem created by enticing verbal warfare with Furious. Eventually Furious, grew tired of the hopeless evolution of the hip hop culture on planet earth. Some say he returned to his birth planet of Naptron. Most likely tapping into and mastering the spiritual realm known only as the "Ultimate". Eager to release this new power to earthlings, he returned to Southern CA in Riverside (circa 2002). It wasn't long before mankind was aware of his presence on their planet. Witnessing the "Ultimate" in action, Furious realized his capabilities (his optimum power being achieved) and essentially elevated to the one known as Mr. Sith. This deadly agent of hip-hop continued to spread the teachings of the Sith on the latest DEMENTED project STARDOM! Sithlords and More ( all tracks aranged, mixed,and produced by Aluwi 7). There is word from the DBA camp that Mr. Sith will be releasing a solo project (of course solely produced by A7) winter 08', early spring 09'. God have mercy on those who oppose the one and only Mr. Sith.
"Soon the world will know of my existence/like non-zero digits/my style's significant" From the single "Mr. Sith's Revenge" most recently released DBA album "STARDOM! Sithlords and More"
ALUWI 7(A-Seven) Bio: A-Seven the Naptronian-Producer/Dee Jay/Emcee has been around vinyl and turntables since his phonographic warp to Earth through the gynecological-portal. His transfer from Naptron (his native planet) was never to be permanent, he returned to Naptron to heighten his auditory perception. His creator and native Nigaliens gave him the necessary materials and faculties to seek out other Naptronians that were placed on Earth to revolutionize all forms of rhythmically audible sounds. He connected with several Earthly-Naptronians over the years, first surrounding himself with a highly regarded expert on collecting good vinyl (Eddie T.). His Earthly father's knowledge of breaks necessary to change the watered-down existence of the future's muzik was passed down 2 A-seven through a continuous and infinite process. He also learned firsthand the techniques needed to beat match from his Earthly cousin sharing the same Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid (Kelly Pickett) during the birth and peak of Chicago 'House Music' (84-88). Equipped with these skills, a knowledge of B-Boying and some 'writing' experience, A-seven joined his first emcee crew, but was later alienated by journeys to Southern Illinois and the Middle Tennessee Region where the cultivation and growth of his knowledge about the 'breaks' was furthered through direct and indirect current transfers with unknowns and other Earthly-Naprtronians (Joe, DK, J-Bazz). While in the Middle Tennessee realm, A-seven captured his first personal pair of tables and production devices. He met up with Tron (Socio) through the process of verbal and herbal transfers. Tron, a fellow Naptronian that constructs audible engineering wonders, added on StickiJo & Furious (Mr. Sith) which formulated I.T.I.M.S. in the years 1996-1997. The constant beat making, shredding and performing embarked on by I.T.I.M.S. helped sharpen the skills present in A-seven, thus giving him the energy needed to branch off from I.T.I.M.S. into a smaller more Naptronian centered DEMENTED BEAT APOSTLES featuring Furious Styles (Mr. Sith/DARKLORD). They have been slaughtering wack emcees and commercial ideologies since the year 1998 with the release of 'The Sithlord Tape!'. Other projects have been "The Sampler was Broke Tape!', 'Who's DBA' the EP & 'STARDOM!!! Sithlords & More'
