It's all about hip-hop, dancing, and good vibes. Since the release of their 2003 debut, Time to Change, Unspoken Levels have been turning some heads, bringing the party, and pushing forward with their up-beat message and sound. Pulling some serious inspiration from a lifetime of songs and experiences, the emcee brothers, Mr. Metaphysical and Idol-C, bring a fresh breath of clarity, peace, and urgency to the mic. All this is rooted in an eclectic foundation of some funky hip hop, produced with just as much love by the group's resident DJs: brothers DJ Stillness and C-Mos. Founded in the dusty flatlands of Lubbock, TX, the two sets of two brothers formed Unspoken Levels in 2002 out of a shared love for hip hop. What started as a small-town family-and-friend's pass time, quickly grew in to two full albums, jam-packed live performances, and finally relocating to Austin, TX in mid 2007. This isn't your average hip hop crew. Staying true to the four elements of hip hop (the DJ, the emcee, the b-boy, and the art of hip hop) Unspoken takes it to a different level with their infectious live performance and stage presence. Combining old school breaks with funk, blues, reggae, break dancing, everyday life, and countless other influences, the group's sound is unique, inspired, and accessible to a wide variety of music lovers. It has that familiar catch fused with some new ideas that keep the message ripe and the creativity flowing. But go ahead and scratch out all the labels, explanations, definitions, and background story. The aim of this group is found in the energy of the music itself. As Mr. Metaphysical points out in the group's 2006 sophomore release, Remember "What's important is unspoken, hence the name of the crew. The truth is way beyond any word that comes through." So on that note, we'll stop with the written word and let the music tell the rest of the story.
