| Wu-Syndicate > Albums & Lyrics |
Based out of the VA Beach region, Wu-Syndicate (Joe Mafia, Myerlansky, and Napoleon) having been hammering out hip-hop tracks for a number of years. Formerly known as Crime Syndicate, the group formed their own independent label, Slot Time Records. They hooked up with local producers DJ Devastator, Tata, and The Dread cutting demos and pressing singles.
In 1998 the group got its first break with the track "Where Was Heaven",
featured on the compilation album "The Swarm" (Wu-Tang/Priority records. "The Swarm" peaked at at #4 in Billboard Rap Albums Chart. Wu-tang/Priority records plans to release the groups debut album, "Syndication" on April 20th.
We caught up with Joe Mafia and Myalansky for a few comments about the new album: "Our lyrics are for the people, urban communties, people who struggle匘C helps to influence our music. It's the real thing... Wu-Syndicate is the best kept secret. A lot of artists are forgetting where they come from. We're hungry right now while other are eatin'."
Myalansky mentioned influences such as Slick Rick and Run DMC. They are also looking forward to their upcoming slot on the 40-city "Hard Knock" tour.
The new album "Syndication" will also feature tracks by Smokin' Joeh and
Mathematics for Wu-Tang Productions. Also, look for a single from Wu-Syndicate (featuring Ghostface Killah) entitled "Bust a Slug", appearing on the "Thicker than Water" soundtrack, a forthcoming straight-to-video release starring Fat Joe and Mack 10. Wu-Tang Records presents another ongoing chapter in the Wu-Tang Saga.
Thanks to Alexandre Ramier for submitting the biography.
