Peace World.  It’s Tuesday, and we’re officially one week away from the release of Substantial & Marcus D are Bop Alloy (Deluxe Edition). So, just in case you are one of many who has not discovered the elusive Japan Import Version of SMDABA, we present the album opener, Jazzmatic (ft. Steph the Sapphic Songstress). Just like the rest of the album, it is produced by none another than, Seattle based producer, Marcus D. Jazzmatic, is an upbeat, melodic, feel good song that is sure to have you singing along while two stepping in your seat.  It also breaks down the mission of Bop Alloy.

“This is the soundtrack for the everyday fellow / Hella laid back, super smooth, way mellow…
Ain’t come here lookin’ for comp to outdo / Just want fans to know, we can’t do it without you / Ain’t s**t without y’all, we give it our all / With a soundscape cooler than the middle of Fall!” – Substantial

This is the album that you’ve been waiting for if you’ve been a fan of songs like, “Day in the Life”, I’m Here, Enjoy Yourself & “U Were There (Marcus D Remix)”.  In fact, MD & I plan to release the SMDABA instrumentals, along with an EP, prePAIRED, of our past collaborations, which also includes the instrumentals. After giving y’all all of that great music, all that is really left for us to say is… “You’re welcome!”

Mark your calendars folks, Substantial & Marcus D are Bop Alloy (Deluxe Edition) available September 7, 2010 exclusively at www.BopAlloy.Bandcamp.com

Stay in Peace

[SHOW] Cafe Groove ft. Substantial in MD

Peace World,

As some of you know, besides being an MC, I am also a Youth Worker.  While hard at work finishing up my joint venture, Bop Alloy, with Red Bull’s Big Tune Beat Battle (Seattle) Winner, Marcus D,  I have been keeping busy doing Youth Work/Hip-Hop education in Baltimore City and Prince George’s County, Maryland and in Southeast, D.C. with Baltimore City Public Schools, Covenant House Washington, and Maryland-National Capital Park & Planning Commission (MNCPPC). So, needless to say, I was thrilled to hear that MNCPPC wanted him to perform at an event for teens & the community called Cafe Groove.  Details are listed below.  Be sure to come by and show your support and if you know of any teen performers/visual artists, please bring them!
