专辑简介

Hailing from the underbrush of the back woods town: York, Pennsylvania, Apollo's Sun wrote his first rhyme at the age of 13. After releasing two half assed demos by the influential age of 16, Apollo decided to master his craft and carve his own niche in the often cliched world of hip hop. Armed with an MPC2000xl, a handful of talented musicians, and a cunning live DJ, Apollo has been performing live since the age of 16. Opening for hip hop heavy weights Louis Logic, Listener, The Pharcyde, Method Man, Inspecta Deck, Mr. Complex, Black Sheep, and KRS-ONE, Apollo's live set incorporates live instrumentation and back up vocalists ultimately funking up misled hip hop heads all over Pennsylvania. Apollo has performed with Central Pennsylvanian acts such as Phynite, Artists Over Industry, Actual Facts, LA, Alpha Rhythm, Paradise Movement, Image and Steele, and Repeat Offenders among others. Not a stranger to multiple media outlets, Apollo has been featured numerous times in local newspapers and has made an appearance via a video clip on MTV's very own Direct Effect (haha). Fast forward to the now, Apollo recently released his first commercially available EP titled, "The Happy Masochist." The album features an eclectic mix of talent and has gained critical acclaim from local press. Quoted by the Patriot News (Harrisburg, PA) as being "haunting,'' Apollo plans on touring to support the album in the near future. Apollo's Sun is a breath of fresh air to the cluttered genre known as hip hop, offering an alternative perspective to the usual shoot 'em up, booty shaking anthems currently tormenting radio listeners all over the world. His live show is as intense as his recordings and he plans on continuing this trend for 2007 and beyond.
