The
Song:
On the latest track from their recent self-titled release, soul/hip-hop sextet Deep Rooted recruited veteran producer Exile to assist with the group's eclectic sound. The result was the track "Closer" - a perfect example of Deep Rooted's new "feel good" hip-hop music. Exile does his job in creating a beat well suited for the group, as he mixes handclap backbeats with soulful guitar lines and gospel organ. Verses from Johaz and Mr. Brady have an edge that contrasts with the laid back groove, but singer Just Brea brings everything together, providing a chorus that soulfully melds each section together. Look for "Closer" and more tracks from D.E.E.P. R.O.O.T.E.D., available via Clear Label Records (run by Tajai of Souls of Mischief & Hieroglyphics fame).

The
Background:
In 2004 former Battle-Axe recording artist Mr. Brady and one of San Diego’s most seasoned rap artists Johaz came together to form the group Deep Rooted. Under their indie label Openmyndz Entertainment, Deep Rooted began to blend their favorite hip-hop with a new style of "feel good music". Shortly thereafter, the group added soulful singer Just Brea, whose vocals brought the group to a whole new level. The group expanded again when DJ Artistic and Urban Dynamics dancers CeSee and Boosblak were welcomed aboard. By this time, Deep Rooted was beginning to find their sound and make their mark. Along with performing at the Vans Warped Tour and Urban Network conference, Deep Rooted has been on stage to open for some of the best acts in hip-hop, including Public Enemy, The Roots, Common, KRS- ONE, Lupe Fiasco, X Clan, Wu Tang Clan, Kurtis Blow, and The Boot Camp Click. The group’s music is also featured on the X Box and Play Station video games NBA 2K6 and NBA 2K7, as well as the commercials for the game. After independently releasing their first two albums, A New Beginning and A Second Coming, Deep Rooted has moved to Hieroglyphics/Souls of Mischief member Tajai's Clear Label Records. Their first release on Clear Label Records, the self-titled Deep Rooted is available now everywhere.
