an experienced battle emcee, competing in Street Rock and Urban Combat
and was a victor at the first Battle Ave. in Oakland and Santa Clara
University’s Hip-Hop Night which ultimately led to his radio show. His
first offering
isThe Return of the Coming of the Aftermath. The fourteen song
collection is a stunning
first offering that gives the listener personal insight into Shamako's
life, a look into life in the Bay Area, and humor, approach and skill
level that's refreshing to many in these times. The East Bay Express's
Rachel Swan is quoted as saying that Shamako, "Could go toe to toe"
with many members of the Hieroglyphics. The San Jose Mercury News'
Marian Lu is quoted as saying that album of San Jose's "Kevin Bacon
(six degrees or fewer in South Bay Hip-Hop)" is "long anticipated" by
many members of the community. The Album, which ranges from such ironic
tracks like "Don't Take My Advice," to the club rocking "Raw, Wicked"
to the lyrically imaginative time adventure, "The Quest," is an
exciting adventure that reminds you to enjoy life, fine lyrics, and the
balance of life. The websites www.studio1691.com and www.75ark.com are
distributing this project for Second Arrow Productions. The Return of
the Coming of the Aftermath is a powerful new offering from a talented
new artist who will clearly be contributing to Hip-Hop on may levels
for years to
come.
