Slaine Released the Following Statement Regarding the Terrorist Attacks on Boston and the Release of his new album The Boston Project:

Today has been a very sad day in Boston. My thoughts and prayers are with the people in my community who have had their lives taken or have been badly hurt. It's heartbreaking. I'm pretty sure most of my supporters know that I am actively involved in working in the community when I can, and supporting other artists in anyway I am able to. The Boston Project was a labor of love that I worked on with other artists from home over the past 18 months or so. I have been excited for the world to hear it, and I know a lot of these guys who are on a worldwide release for the first time are excited too. At the same time it sucks to promote a project from the community in the middle of one of the most tragic and brutal events in our city's history. On the same day actually. I wont be putting out the new video today as planned because I didnt feel it was appropriate to put a video that is a celebration out during this time of mourning. It was impossible to move the release date of the album otherwise I would have delayed that as well. So The Boston Project is out everywhere today, but it is obviously not under the circumstances that I had envisioned for it. Stay strong Boston, and Fuck whoever the cowards are that commited this heartless act of violence on our brothers, fathers, uncles, mothers aunts, sons and daughters. They will pay for this. - Slaine

ALMOST FAMOUS – The brand new music video from Swollen Members from the new album “Beautiful Death Machine” out on March 19, 2013.

Las Vegas heavyweight Big B continues to reveal more details about his upcoming new album "Fool's Gold" in a new video blog...

In the clip Big B discuses writing his new single "Here Comes The Lightning", which was co-written with pop superstar Pink and producer Butch Walker. Big B's new album "Fool's Gold" is currently scheduled for release on April 2nd via Suburban Noize Records.

"Pink is a good friend of mine and we always wanted to do something together, but the timing never worked out because of her insane schedule," said Big B. "For this album everything just worked out and Pink had the time to work on a track together with Butch Walker."

The songs on "Fool's Gold" are just as contagious as Big B's thuggish charm as he pours his heart out onto the album. With the entire music industry focused on finding the next huge star via reality television, Big B has taken a back-to-basics approach on "Fool's Gold" and filled it with fun spirited songs that can fit into any music lover's playlist. The album is rich is musical diversity and chemistry as Big B is joined by a stellar cast of songwriters that includes country superstar Colt Ford, Slightly Stoopid, The Dirty Heads, as well as members of legendary punk outfits NOFX and Pennywise.

Swollen Members have been added to the Paid Dues Independent Hip-Hop Festival 2013 on Saturday, March 30, 2013 at the NOS Events Center in San Bernardino, CA. The Vancouver based trio joins an already stellar line-up that includes headliners

Black Hippy, Macklemore, along with Talib Kweli, Tech N9ne, Scarface, Immortal Technique, Hopsin, Joey Badass, Vinnie Paz & Ill Bill, and many others.

“I can’t express how excited we are to be able to re-connect with our amazing fans south of the border, and what better place to kick it off than at Paid Dues,” said Prevail. “We are keeping great company with some of the legends of underground hip-hop at Paid Dues. We look forward to hitting the stage full throttle and leaving it all out there for the crowd in attendance.”

Swollen Members will be touring in support of their upcoming new album “Beautiful Death Machine”, which is slated for a March 19th release via Suburban Noize/Battle Axe Records. In anticipation of the group’s new album, Swollen Members have released a new audio teaser for the song “BAX WAR” online at http://bit.ly/1468GqJ.

To create their latest opus, “Beautiful Death Machine”, Swollen Members regrouped with a revitalized energy and a vision to record an album that strengthens the group’s musical legacy. Armed with their signature brand of dark, sinister, spellbinding hip-hop, Swollen Members emerged with an album that is aggressive, confident and commands listeners attention with its in-your-face attitude. On “Beautiful Death Machine”, Madchild and Prevail have returned to the expressive, emotional, poetic and clever lyrical style that has earned them legions of fans, while Rob The Viking provides a dark backdrop of sick macabre beats.
