Release Notes:

Legendary Los Angeles underground hip hop veteran 2MEX has
broken his silence, returning from hiatus with the ultimate
2Mex album: My Fanbase Will Destroy You.

The record features 2Mex in the finest hour of his storied
15-year career. Over fifteen tracks, the gifted emcee
showcases his charismatic, versatile flow delivering
razor-sharp observations and a signature lyrical wit over a
varied selection of ground-shaking and groundbreaking sounds
from underground hip hop’s finest beatmakers. Appearances
and production are contributed by Murs (Felt, Living
Legends), Prince Po (Organized Konfusion), Busdriver, Ikey
Owens (The Mars Volta), Ceschi, and many more. The album
includes the lead single “Dead Hand Control”, produced by
Owens and Deeskee (Shapeshifters).

2Mex is infamous for keeping his fanbase satiated with an
almost constant flood of releases, both as a solo artist and
with his acclaimed group projects (including the seminal
indie rap collective Visionaries and Look Daggers, his
collaboration with Ikey Owens of The Mars Volta). My Fanbase
Will Destroy You, however, took two years to create, and
that extended period yielded a record that represents his
multi-faceted skills in the most comprehensive and precise
manner yet.

A break of this length was an astounding accomplishment for
a man who is possibly the most prolific underground rapper
ever, with over 35 CD releases in his catalog and too many
guest appearances to count. The newly-discovered sense of
focus for one project came about in part due to a discussion
with Strange Famous Records label boss Sage Francis (a
prolific underground legend in his own right), who signed
2Mex in 2008:

“One caveat of the deal was established from the start: this
has to be the quintessential 2Mex album,” says Francis. “The
best of the best. It will be the next level record. The
ceiling breaker. It will be the only 2Mex album that is
released in the year that it comes out.”

And so begand the journey that led to classic-quality tracks
such as the first single “Dead Hand Control,” the anthemic
return-to-form pledge of allegiance “Back”, and the
introspective “I Just Didn’t Know”) featuring Returners
bandmate Stacey Dee). Organized Konfusion’s Prince Po shows
up on “What You Know About,” a dedication to the
under-the-radar greats that influenced a generation of hip
hop. The strain of maintaining fulfilling, lasting
relationships in the 21st century comes under scrutiny as
2Mex trades verses with Living Legends homie Murs on
“Rollercoaster.” The subsonic bass crunch of “Press Your
Luck” brings the new sound of underground Los Angeles to the
indie rap masses.

Produced by Busdriver (tracks 1, 8, 9 & 12); Ikey Owens &
Deeskee (2); Deeskee (3, 7, 13 & 15); Life Rexall (4);
Ceschi Ramos (5 & 10); LDONTHECUT (6); DJ Nobody (11); and
Single Helix (14). Cuts on track 4 by Buddy Peace.

The kings, with yet another RETAIL CD rip!
