Funk based Party Hip Hop ! ! !

I am the son of hip hop and the father to hope.

Some people have the ability to look beyond themselves. Selflessness is a virtue not present in todays hip-hop. Is it a weakness to be humble and to love? I think the scared prey on the uneducated and confused, because they are easily programmed. Before you mock or judge, look in the mirror and define yourself. Everyone needs to be saved in one way or form. We all look to the future hoping for a brighter day.

Yeti, YEH tee, is a creature said to live on Mount Everest and other mountains of the Himalaya range of Asia. Reports of such a creature have also come from remote parts of China, Siberia, and other parts of Asia. According to the legend, the Abominable Snowman is a hairy beast with a large, apelike body and a face that resembles that of a human being. It has long arms that reach to his knees, and walks erect on its thick legs. Legend says that the Abominable Snowman sometimes comes down from the mountains to attack the villagers. The name Abominable Snowman may come have from a journalists translation of Metoh Kangmi, a Tibetan name for the creature. The name Yeti was given to it by the Sherpa people of Nepal. The word probably once meant all devouring creature. It may refer to a mountain demon rather than an actual creature. there is no direct evidence that the yeti exists. Local tribes have reported seeing it, but their stories cannot be verified.since the late 1890's, sightings have been reported by western travelers, and explorers have sighted footprints of a large unknown creature in the snow.in 1951, british exporer, Eric Shipton took pictures of "snowman" tracks near Everest. since then, several expeditions have searched for the creature. The explorers neither captured nor saw anything that might be the snowman. Scientist said the tracks may have been made by bears or other animals. They found that the sun often caused such tracks to melt into larger footprints. Holler

Indianapolis, Indiana's MUDKIDS have been a major part of the independent hip-hop scene in the Midwest for over a decade. MUDKIDS have released four albums, independently and are currently in the studio finishing their fifth, 'We Are Dynamic And People Like Us'. Elp-Mass and Rusty met years ago at a local hip-hop night in a reggae club, that ended up becoming a jazz club (while Rusty was in a rock band and Elp-Mass was a student at Indiana University) and they have been partners ever since. MUDKIDS are jazz cats that rock; they have never catered to trends and whims, they are determined to refine and perfect their craft and have maintained a consistency most hip-hop bands would envy. This is a band that hits the stage two men strong and plays like there are twenty. The live show is a celebration, a joyous affair.

Finally ready to step into a bigger world, the 'KIDS have returned better than ever with 'We Are Dynamic And People Like Us'. The new material from 'We Are Dynamic...' is getting great feedback. Lead single, 'Love' will have you singing the chorus by the second time it comes around in the song, while Rusty expounds on the many qualities and quirks of the 'L' word. The MUDKIDS have expanded their sound in the last few years, with Rusty bringing a new sense of Soul and Elp-Mass providing a whole new range of emotion, sound, and tempo. 'Swim' from 'We Are Dynamic...' is a great example of that. It is also a great example of how the band's sound has grown with each release. Everyone who hears 'Swim' for the first time asks 'Who is that?', even though they have been watching the band for years. It is truly an 'original' in every sense of the word.

DJ Helicon joining the group in '05 solidified what was already being recognized as one of the better live hip-hop shows in the Midwest. The interplay and chemistry between Rusty and Helicon became an undeniably, charismatic and energetic show. MUDKIDS decided to part ways with Helicon and strip back down to the original MUDKIDS duo that started it all... Rusty Redenbacher & Elp-Mass. The MUDKIDS are Dynamic and People Like Them. Watch for them in your city.
