Kuf Knotz
Kuf Knotz
"Kufie" has been making a name for himself as a member of some of Philly's most cutting-edge alternative rap crews; first as a founding member of the BurnDown All-Stars, and more recently, his own group, hip-hop/soul collective The Hustle. Knotz, a.k.a. Ty Green, is now making his solo career top priority, and with Boombox Logic, he's created a diverse, far-reaching collection that underscores the rapper's eclectic tastes.
Abstract Verses
Abstract Verses
Abstract Verses is the live band that stemmed from rapper Vice Verse's concept album Cookinville, which was produced primarily by Mark Ziffer and Julian Kantor electronically. Upon playing together for some time and converting the electronic based hip-hop album to a live performance, the band has since branched from the constraints of its origins and developed a voice of its own. Influences for each member range from hip-hop to jazz fusion, to bebop, to post rock, to punk rock. As a result, the combination of backgrounds has made for an accessible yet diverse and original sound for the stage
