ECID accompanied by Arsenic "100 Smiles And Runnin"
$11.00
Fill In The Breaks MC/producer Jason “Ecid” Mckenzie returns
with his fourth o cial solo album “100 Smiles and Runnin” produced
entirely by Arizona producer Arsenic. The title would lead golden
era hip-hop heads to believe it’s an ode to NWA, and in a way it is.
But it’s so much more than a clever play on a classic album title.
Smiles show’s the twenty six year old twin-cities native at his most
charismatic, honest, sarcastic, and relatable. Unlike his previous
releases that relished in experimentation and abstract narratives,
Smiles takes a less is more approach with an emphasis on making
every word count.
In a time when the underground is much closer to the mainstream
than ever before - Ecid, a lyrics first MC, is more concerned with
making timeless music than songs that bang in the club. Arsenic’s
production is the perfect compliment to these every man ethics,
providing psychedelic, soulful, melodic samples and digger circle
drum breaks.
“Smiles” is an album about remembering who you are and how you
got here. It shows us we can grow and rediscover the things about
ourselves we forgot were great. It is an album built on the beauty in
words with awe inspiring lines like “I live every day like a seven-ten
split sweet talking good karma cuz revenge is bitch” and hilariously
truthful lines like “As a kid you drink Coke, as a teen you learn to
snort it. As an adult you learn to smoke it cuz you can’t a ord it” Ecid
is sure to bring lyrics back in 2010.

AWOL ONE and ECID are...
$11.00
Who are Awol One and Ecid? Are they shape-shifting heroes from hiphop's distant past sent back to the
future? Are they animal poets trapped in a shell of b-boy bodies? Are they MTV reality show robots in training?
Are they skeleton monsters? Are they made of flesh or circuits?
No one is exactly sure what they are, they just are…
While touring the Midwest years ago - Los Angeles MC/Artist Tony aka Awol One and Minneapolis
MC/Producer Jason aka Ecid began building the foundation for a classic collaboration between two of
indie-hiphop’s most unpredictable talents and original voices.
Two years and many L.A. / Minneapolis flights later they have constructed a cohesive album built on label
Fill In The Breaks trademark production and balanced by Awol and Ecid’s knack for witty sarcasm and
melodic hooks. Like too many forced and ill planned collaborations before them, this new duo had no intentions
of just running through the motions - they wanted to make an unapologetic, raw and focused record.
From the first horn stab on the opening track “Root For The Villain”, to the epic posse-cut “Calm Down” and
the sure-fire anthem “Clever Marketing”, one thing is for sure –
Awol One and Ecid are…
AVAILABLE JANUARY 12TH 2010

ECID "RED BERETTA"
$11.00
Red Beretta, which is a “concept” album based on the bizarre events that turn a modern day hero into a monster is a layered collection of intense narratives & dirty psychedelic grooves, built on Ecid’s ear for digging up dangerous, melodic, “what the hell is that?” samples & his passion for risky, thought provoking story telling. Underneath all the layers Red Beretta is a portrait of society's infatuation with Psychopath's & its need to humanize them & try to piece together why & how they become that way.

Ecid "Economy Size goDD Costume"
$11.00
ESGC is what happens when you take Slim Shady era Eminem, The Talking Heads, Ice Cube & Nirvana, smash them together, roll them in mud, blow them up with dynamite & attempt to piece them back together. Packed with "did he just..?" quotables & menacing beats that'll leave your original preconceptions about hiphop still intact, but briefly beat up & sub-sided. Originality breaths through the blood of Ecid's blue collar rap songs thicker than a shot of Milk & Gasoline.
