Forsaken Family was founded by two brothers who were raised through the hardships of poverty and violence in the inescapable depths of the corrupt Fostoria, Oh. Reared by only the most devout Christians they could still not avoid the inevitability of becoming products of their environment. Selling drugs was not only an income but a way of life. Though the teachings of the bible stuck in their minds it was rarely practiced through their actions. Forsaken Family was formed as a way to vent their biographies to entertain as well as to inform. now with the arrival of long time friend Natalie into the fold, the fam is complete. Just her presence alone is enough to make the doubters believe. But its her undenible vocal power that helps set this group apart from all others in todays watered down rap scene. The Forsaken Family blends a hard street attitude with unrivaled lyrical mastery. Touching on an array of topics ranging from the hardships of life to the blessings of God. Their new album indulges heavily into political and global events as well as the inevitable end of the world itself. So pick up a copy of their latest album, We're Near The Ending and enjoy the ride as the duo bring speedy and complex rhymes, mixed with extensive vocabulary and knowledge, back to the forefront of hip hop. Early influences include Wu-tang clan, Nas, and Eminem.
