Shwayze
Malibu. It’s where Mathew McConaughey flexes his pecs for paparazzi while shirtless on the beach. It’s where Courtney Cox and husband David Arquette recently sold their home for the modest asking price of more than $30 million to Los Angeles Dodgers owner Frank McCourt. It’s where Julia Roberts built her multi-million dollar, eco-friendly estate as a tribute to Green living. And it’s where Cher, Jennifer Aniston and Mel Gibson share the same 310 area code as the Malibu trailer park community that brought us Shwayze.

Team RezOfficial
Team RezOfficial is a collaboration of A-list, hi-profile Aboriginal M.C.s. The birth of Team Rezofficial is the culmination of events that began in late 2002. Big Stomp (Tom Crier) had just left the hip hop group "War Party" to concentrate on his own independent production efforts. At the same time, J Mak (Jason Makinaw) was honing his skills crafting beats for his friend L’s-Aqui (Cam Farley). Both producers started out with very humble studio set-ups, but made the best with what they had. It was at this time that while working on separate demo projects, the two decided to team up and move under the production umbrella "Rezofficial".

Akrobatik
Akrobatik jumps through hoops for nobody. As a decade-in-the making stalwart of independent hip-hop’s realest echelon, he backslaps chat room rap phonies spawning in his wake. And when he sails through the mainstream with his daily gig on Boston’s jiggy JAM’N 94.5, he does it on his own terms. In Ak’s words, he’s an MC who went to private school but will publicly execute you.
