Easy Company (hiphop)
Easy Company is a collaboration between producer/DJ Paleface, MC's Lex and G.K. scratch DJ CMF, and graff writer Reakt One. We eat, sleep and shit hiphop...
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Pale and Lex were neighbors in an apartment complex in East San Diego in 2001. They met and soon began hanging out, smoking and making music. In about 2003 another MC, G.K. was brought into the fold. A local scratch DJ, CMF holds down the cuts. In 2005 Easy Company linked up with artists Reakt our of Atlanta on the visual end of things.
Basically Easy Company is a flexible, living thing. More people will be added to the group, especially breakdancers.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Yes we have some shows under our belt, and are ready for more.
