Knoetik from The AKADEMY
The AkAdEmY is a group of about seven people all together. The AkaDeMy pushes the boundaries of hip hop mixing in elements of rock, funk, soul, and experimental into one package to form a unique sound. Each track is inspired by a certain genre. The two emcees: Journey1 (J1), and KnoetiK both have totally different styles that blend together perfectly to give the listener a taste of each flow. With a female vocalist and live bass, drums, keys, and guitar in the studio and on stage, the results are a melting pot of success. Check em out and give some feedback or join the fanclub.

Logic Pro to compose the music. Various guitars and basses are available at our studio we go to. A Roland TD12s electronic drumset to add a live feel to the music.
