Today Stereo Crew & Soul Daad release their free LP “AMSTERTROIT”. As the title hints, this album is a result of Detroit and Amsterdam collaborating.

Stereo Boyz & Stereo Crew teamed up with Amsterdam’s Soul Daad recently to produce and record “Amstertroit”. The two teams of MCs and Producers first met on Twitter, exchanging beats and ideas. Amazed by the undeniable talent coming from overseas, the Stereo Boyz picked 3 beats by Soul Daad members Gianski & Bolle for their upcoming album “Carz, Clubz & Theaterz”.

During their recent Europe Tour, the Stereo Boyz met the Soul Daad crew in person for the first time, and after a whole week in their Amsterdam headquarters, “AMSTERTROIT” was born. The LP consists of production and vocals from both crews, bilingual raps and great chemistry.

Mixo says: “We wanted to show a unity with this project, a unity in Hip Hop that, it seems, has been forgotten. This is positivity. This shows you that Hip Hop brings people together, and no language barriers or far distance can stop it.”

“AMSTERTROIT” is now available for free download. Look out for the video to “Ooh La La”, dropping in three weeks.

“Speaking in Tonguez”, produced by Sir Henry J Stuart and featuring vocals by Shoua Kue entices with an ultra smooth sound and lyrics directed at the ladies who like to sit back, relax and enjoy.

Whereas a lot of Hip Hop songs with sexual content are disrespectful nowadays, the Stereo Boyz want to bring the focus back on the art of love making and worshipping a woman’s body. “We are bringing back the feeling of songs like “Let’s get it on” by Marvin Gaye. Songs that make a woman feel special, instead of offended”, says Mixo.

The Stereo Crew unleashes another one of their members this week, Vinnie Bass, who brings you a leak off his upcoming debut “The Chronicles of Bass”.

Vinnie Bass is Mic Audio’s (Stereo Boyz) younger cousin and has, naturally, been around Hip Hop since a young age. At 11 yrs young, upon hearing Rakim’s “Microphone Fiend” for the first time, he started rapping. Today he is finally ready to present his musical introduction to the world and “These Bars” is exactly what that is. Recorded over the Pusha T “My God” beat, Vinnie Bass showcases not only his style and lyrical abilities but also his significant voice.

He describes his music as “short stories mixed with hard-hitting lyrics” and says: “Today i strive to bring my own sound by not shying away from my so called nerd side”. His musical influences Rhyme Asylum, Canibus, Chino XL, Outkast, Big L, Lupe Fiasco and family member Mic Audio can he heard in his music, nevertheless he has his very own sound.

“These Bars” is the first release off his upcoming album “The Chronicles of Bass”, which will be released for free download on March 26th. He describes it as a collection of short stories, with a variety of sounds and topics, with no fear of putting his emotions into lyrics and sharing his soul with his listeners.

“I guarantee you never heard anything like this and I feel I have a lot to bring to the table, if you just give me a chance.”

“Boom Box” is Kid Boombox’s solo joint on the mixtape: “I wanted to approach not just that song but the whole B-Boyz project with a style no one heard before. The “BoomBox” track was more of a part two to the solo track i did on (Stereo Boyz’) “The Illest Mixtape Ever” Project which was titled “How I Feel”, I wanted the listener to hear nothing but rhymes mixed with a great song yet at the same time make you forget how the original version went”.

The B-Boyz Mixtape is Kid Boombox & BrandNew’s first release and serves as an introduction of their sound, similar yet different from the one Stereo Boyz fans are used to. “Mine and Brand New’s 1st Collaboration started off as getting the feel of each others style and turned into something much greater than we imagined.” says Kid Boombox.

On the mixtape the two flow over industry beats and stay true to their style: Hype, New Skool and always Lyrical.

Watch “Boom Box” at the link, grab your free download and stay tuned to hear more from B-Boyz and the rest of the Stereo Crew, coming to you no later than this thursday when we release the first single off Stereo Crew member Vinnie Bass’ debut mixtape

DPress of the Stereo Crew drops a warm up to his upcoming, first Solo EP “The Lions Den”, droppin’ June 07th. Although the track “JuiceBox Bulletcases” has existed for a minute, it is still a perfect introduction of this young MC out of Southwest, Detroit. A recent addition to the Stereo Boyz’ Stereo Crew, he has become a part of the Detroit Hip Hop scene, through Emceeing in the legendary Monkey Barz ciphers, producing and being an active member of the Southwest community.
The hard hitting track was produced by OLOS, also from Detroit. The two collaborated on a project where OLOS would send DPress a beat and in under 4 hours after that the song would be written and recorded.
“JuiceBox Bulletcases” may not be the most lyrical of DPress’ songs, but it is a raw, makin’ your head nod, showcase of his talents.

Mixo aka Applauze Beetz of the Stereo Boyz releases his first Beat Tape titled “The Future in The Present” on this Christmas Day.
The free Beat Tape is a gift to the fans as well as a Wrap Up of a very successful for Mixo and his group.

Mixo has produced many of the Stereo Boyz’ songs, yet most people know him only as a Rapper. In order to change that, but also show his growth in production and to give fans and critics a taste of what the upcoming Stereo Boyz album “Carz, Clubz & Theaterz” (out summer 2013) will sound like, Mixo put together a mix of old and brand new beats, many of them never before heard.

The Beat Tape is a free download to say Thank You to the fans and supporters for a great year.

In preparation for the Stereo Boyz second Europe Tour in February 2013, they will only drop a few more releases before their first full length LP hits stores.

They expressed their Thank You’s via their Facebook page today:

“Happy Thanksgiving! Most of all we are thankful for YOU.. for being able to do what we love most..and for people to enjoy it!”

As an additional treat, their most recent single “RayBanz” and B-Side “Buggin’ Out” is available at half price until Saturday morning at their Bandcamp page as well.

The track drops with a video today, on Halloween, an obvious choice as the song pays tribute to the classic Halloween flick “Beetle Juice”.

Produced by A-Bomb, the beat is fast paced, wild and a definite banger. Mixo and Mic Audio, accompanied by Stereo Crew member Kid Boombox ride the beat perfectly and showcase their lyrical abilities.

The video for “Buggin’ Out” was shot in New York, just 2 days before Hurricane Sandy hit. Hitting Brooklyn, the Bronx, Queens, Halloween parties and more perfect sceneries, the Stereo Boyz once again captured the perfect visuals for their sounds.
The video was shot by Sacramento Knoxx, originally from Detroit and residing in Queens, and edited by David Romero.

While the Stereo Boyz are preparing to embark on their second Europe Tour early next year, they will continue to give you tastes of their upcoming album “Carz, Clubz & Theaterz”.
