99th Problem

FREE Download at www.manerok1.bandcamp.com

"99th Problem" was initially an idea brought to the table by Video Directors/Creators the Locker Partners. Noticing the position (& constant social media blitzes) of Mane Rok, the duo who had talked with the MC prior about a linking for a project, approached Mane to see if making a Hip-Hop track with multiple MC's on it giving their take on the movement was possible. No stranger to rounding up groups for work, Mane immediately approached his cohorts Bravo One (who's body of work with his group One Eyed Kings is laced with "politically" charged material,) as well as his most recent collaborator Dyalekt (Diamond Boiz.) Dyalekt handled the production on the track while also lending his hoodtelligent vocals. Mane's partner in "En Stereo" Es Nine (also of Prime Element) was the natural choice for engineer and DJ. Also, recognizing the idea that "99%" is a rather encompassing number, Mane then reached out to The ReMINDers stand out vocalist Aja Black to add her take, which led to the including Denver's political and musical champions Jonny 5 of the Flobots and T Minus Katlyn of Wheelchair Sports Camp. In essence, giving a representation of WHO the "99" are.

I'm not too big into hip hop/rap(I'm more of a metal kinda guy) but I was very delighted to see the cute girl holding the "End the Fed" sign at 3:35! I was there that day and saw this girl and the sign itself attracted me and then I saw her holding it and my head started spinning. I said hi to her but that was all i could muster :/

Love this shit yo!

Fat cats & politicians watch out. The American People are PISSED OFF!

Gawd I hate rap but the message is good.

Amazing work. I came here through a link in an email from the Alan Grayson campaign, and recognize his speech at the end. Masterfully done, and I would love to be able to show this to my kids at school (but would probably get in big trouble!) Not because the kids wouldn't understand it, but because politics is something we never discuss there, as per a sort of "gentlemen's agreement." I will, however, post it in my college online class about teaching elementary Social Studies.

Thanks again!

Wack verses lose attention

[OEKTV]

Weed carriers get no more attention. Thank you to everyone who continues to support the

music, the movement, and the message. Love it or hate it, but keep watching.

Lol k "troop"... I'd be pissed if someone told me I put out a wack verse too. But then again, I wouldn't put out a wack verse.... Aja Black Made the track, and she wasn't even made a part of the video... And honestly my statement stands, its not out of line for me to say that none of the emcees we're dope, because it's true. Not hatin, just given proper feedback
