Hip-Hop Duo G-Side Will Release Their New Album, Island, on Bandcamp

Huntsville, Ala. hip-hop group G-Side will release their forthcoming fifth album, Island, on Bandcamp next month. The critically acclaimed duo of Stephen Harris (aka ST 2 Lettaz) and David Williams (aka Yung Clova) began distributing their music digitally in 2001, and they’ll be selling Island exclusively on Bandcamp for the first few months that it’s available: Their label, Slowmotion Soundz, will release the album Nov. 11. This is one of many coups for the growing digital music retailer, and it’s a move that’s similar to the site’s exclusive debut of Sufjan Stevens’ 2010 EP, All Delighted People: The popular indie artist sold the EP on Bandcamp a full three days before it was available elsewhere, and enough people bought it from the site to land it at No. 48 on the Billboard 200 and help bring Bandcamp to an entirely new audience.

Like G-Side’s Harris and Williams. Around the time Stevens’ made the jump to Bandcamp, a friend and fellow Alabama MC named Geoffrey Robinson (aka G-Mane) introduced the site to Harris, Williams, and their manager, Codie G (who also serves as marketing director for their label). As Harris points out in an e-mail interview, the duo had been using sites iTunes, Rhapsody, CD Baby and DigStation to spread their music online, and they were intrigued by the user-friendly nature of Bandcamp. “At the time no artists from our region were using it at all. So it made us trailblazer,” Harris says. The group already began getting accolades for trailblazing musically, with outlets like NPR putting G-Side at the head of a pack of Huntsville hip-hoppers ready to take the national scene by storm.

G-Side’s next move into the spotlight came Jan. 1, 2011, with the release of The One… Cohesive. It gave G-Side the chance to use Bandcamp for a full-length effort and put the site to the test. “After we released The One… Cohesive there was a noticeable influx in users,” Harris says. “Bandcamp links started popping up everywhere.” Unlike other retailers, Bandcamp gave G-Side full access to consumer demographics so they could tell who was listening to and purchasing Cohesive. Along with timely payments from the site, Bandcamp business development consultant Jennifer Elias reached out to the band to ask about the success of their marketing strategies.

Which is part of the reason G-Side have taken to Bandcamp. The other part? Control: Harris says he and Williams are control freaks and will most likely be working on the album until the eleventh hour, as Bandcamp gives the option to upload entire recordings whenever the perspective user wants. The site also has built a marketplace for physical music–vinyl, CDs, and cassettes–which allows for G-Side to create a more personal product for their fans. “It allows us to distribute and manufacture our own product with no middleman and the rates are fair. With this and the information about our consumers we can personalize the CDs they receive via autographs, posters, stickers etc.,” Harris says. “This has opened up tour dates, collaborations, articles and overall personal interaction with the fans who purchased our albums. It closes the gap between the fan and artist.”

The flexibility that G-Side found with Bandcamp has given them the chance to play a little numbers game with their two full-lengths for 2011: the release date for Cohesive (1/1/11) matches that for Island (11/11/11), and it’s a subtle celebration for Codie G. turning 33 this year. “These dates only come around once in a lifetime,” Harris says. “It helps to market both albums so those who missed the Cohesive can play catch up when they purchase Island.” Harris adds that Island is set to have 11 songs and will cost $11.

Charts and marketing aside, Harris says the music on Island is about G-Side first and foremost. ”This time we decided to make the music for us and not try to make singles or records for a certain demographic,” Harris says. “We are making songs to represent our island, Huntsville.”

GMANE
"Maria"
Prod by MidiMarc
Review by Brandon Soderberg

Despite the relatively minor events of the song—a woman gets revenge on some chumps that ripped her off—G-Mane makes “Maria” (produced by MIDIMarc) mythical. He’s the rapper bard poet, telling Maria’s story in detail-filled couplets that give us a sense of her but only a sense–she remains distant and unknowable. A local legend.
Like most rap songs about girls, it begins with physical description, but it’s not as simple as “She’s fine, she’s a bad bitch,” (though that’s part of it), but that her skin, her thighs–everything–illustrates how together she is in every aspect of her life: “She’s got a good head on her shoulders/Take no shit off top”.
G’s description of Maria is almost non-sexual because like, you’re just not going to get next to Maria like that: “Queen bee, she handle business since her nigga on lock/Other niggas wanna move in, thinkin’ they got clout/But she focused, do her thing, she got two sons to think about.” Notice how the verse shifts from physical details, to compliments about her person, to hard, cold, facts about Maria’s circumstance. Like any woman in power, she’s constantly threatened/courted by suitors who just can’t conceive of her doing it all on her own or think she’s easy to take advantage of and takeover. G-Mane’s wise to admire her from afar.
Particularly affecting is the aside about her sons, because it humanizes Maria and also, makes her even more impressive–she isn’t just after money, she has kids to support, a husband’s tiny empire to hold down. From there, the description moves back into the physical but now it’s all material objects, from the shit she wears (Prada, Gucci) to the gun she carries. The verse ends with G-Mane calling her “The Godmother”–the ultimate compliment.
There’s no hook on this song, what divides the verses is a quick interlude wherein G-Mane spots Maria and casually says, “What’s up?” We have to wait until the next verse to hear what Maria tells him–again, she’s too much of a myth for us to hear her voice–and it’s at this point that our storyteller, gets wrapped-up in the tale: “She said G, I need you to do a favor for me/I think these dudes in the bathroom, I want you to go and see.” Of course, the dudes are in there.
G-Mane’s not asked to pop these dudes. He’s not even asked to say anything to them. Just confirm that they’re in there. Maria’ll do the rest. This kind of minor-detail storytelling is something G-Mane does a lot. His songs are hardly ever street epics and gun-battles, it’s more often than not, little bullshit like this. And cleverly, G-Mane sprinkles this part of the song with similarly “unimpressive” details: his drink order (“a Budweiser with a coke, ice, and jack”), that he took a piss while in the bathroom.
When G returns from the bathroom, verifying the guys are in there, Maria hands him the drink he ordered, but the action’s described as “she passed a libation”. Once Maria touches something, it becomes something bigger and grander–the drink, a small sacrifice. It’s like that part in “Pop the Trunk” from another Alabama wordsmith, Yelawolf, when Yela’s friend hands him his watch before he “grabs his biscuit”. Like, something’s passed between them, and it’s far more nefarious than just a simple Cartier watch or Budweiser.
Reflecting the listener’s perverse curiosity, G-Mane says, “I knew I had to step out, to see these boys get crept-on”, and so, we have a first-hand description of how Maria takes these fuckers out. This is a real dedication to storytelling rap because like, G’s concerned with the logistics of his story and so, he has to justify how he witnessed the shooting: He went out of his way to see it.
And then there’s the violence itself–what the whole song has built up to—and it’s a blast of small details, it’s not exactly epic, it’s quickly done, curt, concise, and violent. The closest to this mix of dramatic tension and just like, casual, flash of violences I can think of would be the “action” scenes in Donald Goines’ novels. Like, it’s all over before it even started and it’s all the awkward, bitter, aftermath.
The song’s final lines describe the kill-shot, and once again, G-Mane goes to crime movies to compliment Maria’s heartless calm. But this time, it’s not the grand, Don-like qualities of The Godfather that make Maria something else, but her similarity to Ice Cube’s iconic Boyz n the Hood character. That kind of wild, heartless efficiency: “Like Doughboy, she told him turn your punk-ass over then/Smashed-out in a blacked-out Rover, The End.” One last, blunt flash of detail and then it’s over.

G. SIDE feat CHRIS LEE "MONEY IN DA SKY"

2010-04-07T17:49:00.002-06:00

Having rocked the show and the afterparty at Oslo’s Club Blå on their debut European excursion this past Easter weekend, Huntsville’s leading lights, G-Side, jumped in the studio with Norwegian singer Chris Lee and just poured their souls onto this beautiful composition from Norwegian production team the Basmo Family. This track is simply incredible. And who better to encapsulate the feeling inside that studio and the song’s representation of the culmination of a decade’s work than the heart and soul of the sounds you hear from Slow Motion Soundz, CP of the mighty mighty Block Beattaz:

“It was an honour working with the Basmo team, and especially working with Chris Lee to create a visual time marker for our first international trip. The track completely encompassed what we were feeling internally after accomplishing our most significant goal to date. Not only did we reach the milestone, we were able to share the moment with those directly responsible for allowing them to become reality. To my international fam, Rob Pursey, Davey Boy Smith, DJ Giraffo, Juice Mane Hugo, J Dirrt, Chris Quality and 30 Pack…Selah.”

Chris Lee had this to say about the session with G-Side, CP of the Block Beattaz and the Basmo Family at Oslo Records studios:

“It was great experience from the get go. You could tell that everybody in that room were there to make a great song, so that was a very good start. And then Basmo Family played us this incredible beat and then I knew it was going to be something special.

Watching CP mixing and producing the vocals was awesome. His whole being and persona was screaming that he loves music with all his heart and it’s always incredible to work with people like that. And it doesn’t hurt that dude is a genius either, which I already knew from listening to his beats.”

ELDORADO RED INTERVIEW WIT MS RIVER CITY

What was your game plan after that situation was over?
After the deal got fucked up, I came back to Alabama, to the streets. I knew Rick Rock from Alabama – he was originally from the Bay Area but we both had family in Alabama. We knew each other before he had blew up in the production game. So I went out there and tried to make somethin’ happen. But you know, every situation ain’t the right situation. When you tryin’ to fit in to someone else’s program, but at the same time, you patiently waitin’ to do yo thang, then your success is basically depending upon if these people pop off or not. When The Federation’s success wasn’t what the label expected, they got dropped from they situation, which domino affects everything else.

So you quit the game for a minute?
I ain’t have no plan – my plan was to go back to where I started, back to the block. I had said fuck the music thang for a minute after that. I came back down south and kinda reinvented myself and that’s what we got today. >>>>>
You’ve been putting out a lot of mixtapes and collaborations. What are you trying to achieve with your music now?
First of all, I’m trying to put out quality street music – some shit that ain’t too ignorant, but at the same time, a nigga is tellin’ a story. When you dealin’ wit’ the streets, some of us is talkin’ from a third party experience, and then you got niggas that’s talkin’ from they life. I happen to be one of them niggas that’s talkin’ from my life experiences. I’m not talkin’ about what my big brother did – even though my big brother was a muthafucka too. I’m tryin’ to bring to the game the story that ain’t really been told – as far as Alabama is concerned.

WRITE UP BY CODIE G

It had to be about 96 or 97 when I was up on the yard going to Alabama A&M University. There was an urban clothing store that sat off in the cut over by G’s Country Kitchen, behind the old Top Line tires where CVS is now located. I was going to cop some new DADA Supreme shirts and some Delinquents shirts. I think the guy that was running the store was from Jersey. You could get all the good reading material like Niggas to Gods, the Willie Lynch Speech, and Soul on Ice by Eldredge Cleaver. I’m talking about a black man’s heaven here. I go to the counter to purchase my vintage North side survival kit of aforementioned items when the Slave Kamp cd jumped out at me. It read “Alabama’s Most controversial Rap Group”. So it too was added to my group of purchases. I heard tales of the southern backwoods that didn’t seem like the normal rap coming out at that time. It was more country, more basement than a wine cellar, but all the time it was Alabama Hip Hop. My potna G-Mane was part of that group. To see him still putting it down for the Flo is remarkable. Florence is somewhat of a ghost town from what it was a decade ago. You had police operations like “Copy Cat” that took almost 100 people from a neighborhood to state pens; helicopters and special ops repelling into the neighborhood, and national guard troops patrolling the streets. Crack was a commodity and the hustlers weren’t scared to move it. You had the murder of Chris Stanback that went unsolved and tore a community apart. The West Side and East Side lost businesses, so now a drive down Mobile Street is accompanied by the sounds of the souls which once made the street vibrant and the heart of the culture. I have sat in on some of the sessions for this project and I’m proud to have the access I have acquired to see this project come together. Sunday on Da Porch is from some one who has survived the Shoal’s decadent 90’s to school the younger generations on a time when hustlers chilled out for a Sunday on the Porch. Production by Mick Vegas.

G SIDE.. HUNTSVILLE INTERNATIONAL

2009-11-18T16:36:00.003-07:00

“Huntsville is so fuckin international, shoulda been Alabama’s capital, that’s trill talk”
- ST 2 Lettaz from ‘Rising Sun’

This is it.

Huntsville International has landed.

If you don’t know by now from the countless classics we’ve published here at Southern Hospitality: Huntsville, Alabama’s Slow Motion Soundz camp is producing, has produced and we’d bet our collective houses will continue to produce, some of the most exciting, heartfelt and, most crucially, musical music of any city, state, country and genre of music. Categorising what these artists do as rap music or hip-hop simply will not stand. This is music, pure and simple. This is some of our all-time favourite music.

What separates G-Side members ST 2 Lettaz and Yung Clova from any other rap duo doing it in recent history, is their outwardly humble aura, understated and yet emotionally articulated rhymes, which are a living, breathing commitment to staying true to their reality. That reality being life in Huntsville. A city that, as a direct result of Slow Motion Soundz’ guiding light, Codie G, will now rise up. The result? The space rocket in their back yard should offer a clue.

The Block Beattaz production (not forgetting Mick Vegas and PT’s sterling work on here also) maintains an otherworldly, space age feel to express through the music what heights the SMS family hope to reach, while all the while ST and Clova’s words keep everything grounded. Grounded in the history of their forefathers in the infamously oppressed and segregated state of Alabama, in their position at the forefront of a city and state that has yet to break into the scene-centred rap universe’s consciousness, and in their own powerful sense of self.

The music peaks when aspirational emotions run high (”It’s kinda hard coming out of Alabama/You don’t realise you slow till you outta Alabama“), but every moment is so intricately produced and Crimson Tide stadium pitch earthy, and yet still not of this world, that the listener can truly feel like they’re experiencing something unique and special – not unlike the first time you heard Big Boi and Dre trade futuristic mystics or Bun B and Pimp C inject their souls into the south’s collective hearts and minds.

‘Huntsville International’, available free copy and paste link below, has been many months in the making, has hit some turbulence, but is all the better for it. And let it be known that this is the beginning of ST and Clova’s future as global artists, setting trends in hip-hop and beyond, and doing shows internationally. Next stop London and Amsterdam!!!

Now we proudly present to you the album, and it is an album, we’ve been anticipating for what feels like a lifetime. Feel this…

2009-11-04T12:33:00.000-07:00

All you need to know about Tam Tam (www.twitter.com/tamtam256) is that, apart from holding it down for Alabama for years now, she inspired Codie G, the man spearheading the great music movement in Huntsville, to get in the game in the first place. So peep this new track from Tam Tam and Jive signee 6 Tre Gangsta for a prime example of that Huntsvegas heat! Enjoy!
