Straight out of Brighton Beach Brooklyn, NY comes a fresh new sound from the up and coming ILL-ROC artist WHITE OWL. Combining hip-hop and rock with a soulful funk backbone, this beat oriented style has a cross-over sound that conjures up influences ranging from early Red Hot Chilli Peppers, to Sublime, to the Beastie Boys. Fresh off an EP release on his own label - Gotham Gold Music Productions- WHITE OWL has teamed up with legendary international hardcore superstar DANNY DIABLO and ILL-ROC Records to release his first Street CD on ILL ROC. More famously known for his years playing bass for early 90's funk-rock pioneers WHITE TRASH (Elektra Records), and later, punk-rock and hardcore legends SKARHEAD and MURPHY'S LAW, WHITE OWL now combines his funk-rock, bass background, with poetic lyrics and killer beats, to introduce you to a funky fresh new style that's all his own. With songwriting credits that range from landing WHITE TRASH on the Billboard Top 40, and MTV's first Buzz Bin segment in 1991, to influencing the driving funk-punk underground sound of current NYHC legends SKARHEAD (Kings at Crime & Drugs, Music & Sex) and MURPHY'S LAW (The Party's Over), WHITE OWL has showcased a 20 year music career writing and recording songs for other artists, starting with a major label release on Elektra at the age of 17. Finally stepping up to the mic with his ILL ROC debut, WHITE OWL combines his signature songwriter's consciousness with edgy and heartfelt lyrics, that showcase his rhyming ability and reflect his life growing up on the NYC's outer borough streets of Queens and Brooklyn. Emitting original and creative rhymes over his signature party-funk-sex musical style, WHITE OWL crosses into a new realm on this release. Including cameos from other top underground hip-hop/hardcore legends, this WHITE OWL Street CD will blow your mind!! Check this shit out!! You will not be disappointed!!!
