We are building our movement ONE fan at a time. Where do YOU fit in the Foodchain? The Foodchain is a Colorado based hip-hop group that has been making their mark on the independent scene since 2010. When DJ Statik Selektah heard The Foodchain’s freshman ‘Corpses’ album, he was so impressed by the music, he inquired about its label home. After a trip to NYC that included rocking with Talib Kweli, 1982, Artifacts, & more, the deal was signed and ‘Corpses’ was released on Showoff Records. The blogosphere picked up on the ‘Corpses’ project and the album received rave reviews from fans and industry tastemakers around the world. With a powerful, real and true to heart sound in a musical landscape oversaturated with make-believe rappers and one hit wonder seekers, ‘Corpses’ became a breath of fresh air and the industry took notice. The alum featured Talib Kweli, Pooh of Little Brother and Hall of Justice. The Foodchain collective is comprised of 4 MC's, 2 producers, a bass player and a drummer took to the road and spent much of 2011 touring and spreading the positive vibes of fun, authentic hip-hop, supporting artists like Lauryn Hill, De La Soul, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, Red and Method Man, Snoop Dogg, Twista, Dilated Peoples, Ice Cube, Cyprus Hill, Big Boi and Kid Cudi. In the fall of 2011 they released the album ‘Brunch’ for free and once again the fans and the industry answered with praises from the most respected bloggers to cosigns from DJ Premier, Big Jon Platte, and Paul Rosenberg of Shady Records who added the first single ‘Dear Industry’ into rotation on Sirius/XM Shade45. After seeing the unique grassroots approach The Foodchain embodies, Paul Rosenberg graciously asked them to perform at the Shady Records 2.0 Showcase at the 2012 SXSW festival in Austin March 16, alongside 50 Cent, Yelawolf, Slaughterhouse, Big K.R.I.T., Schoolboy Q, Action Bronson, Don Trip and STS. Much like life’s circle will live on until time’s end… “The Foodchain” proudly brandishes their love of hip hop as more than a form of artistic expression or source of income… They see it as a chance to move the masses.
