The Volunteerz : the rebirth of what was good
Band/artist history
Forget all the fake emcees , synth driven beats , photoshop artists , mp3 beat makers , non vinyl collectors..... The Volunteerz are fresh!!!! A product of our great musical past destined to reshape the bland hiphop of the future. Born and raised in Vancouver B.C. Rob , Mike , Ivan and Brent grouped together to form a strong team to battle against the wackness found in rap music today. Helped by DJ Panakronic of spacetone records and Prestige Brown of M.O.E.T. The Volunteerz work hard!!!Networking and business are just as important in this industry as the music itself. Trained professionally in music and art have helped guide this group in the right direction. Working on numerous releases all guaranteed to be the freshest shit youve ever heard isn't easy but with the right team its possible to do this. The Volunteerz have collaborated with many underground canadian hiphop acts in the past and now are working fulltime on there full length album due out in 07 titled "Rushden & Diamonds : Suddenly" featuring some of hiphops greatest east and west coast artists of all time. Stay tuned!!!
