STATIK
Chicago Underground Hip Hop legends, Earatik Statik, consisting of
emcees Sef Rich and Carlos Polk, are set to release their newest studio
single, "Big Fire" on Manta Ray Records, their first studio single in a
nearly four years.
After
releasing several buzzworthy 12" singles in the late 90's, early
2000's, Earatik Statik released their debut album, Feelin Earatik
(Gravel Records, 2005), to much critical acclaim. The album featured
such Hip Hop legends as Kool Keith, Diamond D, Edo.G, K-Solo, as well
as indie Hip Hop heavyweights Akrobatik, Pacewon, The Molemen and
Single Minded Pros. The album's single, "Evil is Timeless" b/w "Ill
State Massive Pt 2", was pressed on 12" vinyl and distributed
internationally. Their collabo track with Kool Keith, "Destruction
Mission", was also licensed by a UK label, Filthy Habits, and pressed
on vinyl and distributed throughout Europe, garnering them a large
international following.
After several national and
international tours, with such acts as Atmosphere, Sadat X, and Edo.G,
and countless spot dates with artists like Rakim, Outkast, Ice Cube,
Earatik's international buzz reached a fever pitch going into the
release of their second album.
In 2009, the group released The
Good, The Bad & The Ugly on Gravel Records, and received accolades
from URB Magazine to the Source to XXL. The album once again featured
an all-star lineup of certified Hip Hop legends from the beats to the
rhymes, including production by Pete Rock and Large Professor, as well
as guest spots from Sadat X (on two tracks), and Sean Price of Heltah
Skeltah.
After a nearly four year hiatus, Earatik is now back
with "Big Fire", a genuine Hip Hop banger produced by Phil Absurd and
full length video shot and directed by Seth Savoy, that will remind
fans what they've been missing over the past few years.
