03/31/10 - Time Flyin' Wow, has it really been that long since the last update? Damn! Then again, I never said this was a place for news, (you've got Faygoluvers and Juggalonews for that). However, this is the place to meet the newest, youngest, and freshest artists that are hitting the scene (plus getting all the available SirT downloads isn't too bad). So, I've been posting some videos from PSY up here, but I can't do em all myself. So if you can help me make this site fresh by posting YouTube vids on here of your favorite Underground artists, it would be more than appreciated. On top of that, there has been a lot of new profiles being added, then nobody updates or adds any content, or even info. So if you have a profile, please add your info, links, pics, music, ect. We all benefit from you promoting your favorite artists. Well, until next time - T


05/28/09 - Get Suicidal
Haha! Well a year ago today I kinda took a law enforced hiatus, but lucky for all of us, I'm here now. And I bring some flavor for you. If you hit up the bottom of this page you'll see we have a new featured label: Suicide Lab Productions. These homies I've been down with for a minute now, and they got some vets to the underground game, along with some fresh new names. If your curious hit up the link and see what there all about, and if you love free shit, hit up the Downloads section at the top for a Grab 'n Go. Recently they just signed a few acts such as: Raq, Mizury, Lord Zero, Thought Criminalz, Khaos & Lepricon. And lets not forget the rest of the homies who been wit em awhile now: Shleproka (Tha Roka), Tha Nutkase, Omadeus, Tha Misfit, Harold Dean, Thomasman, and Hain. You've heard of some of them haven't you? Well for those who you haven't heard of, be sure to hit em up.

05/28/09 Pt.2 - Get Reckless

In other news, UMR's Detroit homie Reckless is dropping a new LP on you soon titled "The Path of a Legend", set to be 16 tracks with music production from Dr. Explicit, some Underground cats you might know, and a few from myself, SirT. I make some appearances along with Dr. Explicit, Soulja 'Lo, and more. He laid his heart out on this one, you can hear "This is Life" off the album in the Reverb Player below. Well I suppose that's enough flavor for now, don't wan't to spoil you too much, just enough so that I'm your favorite uncle - T



03/20/09 - Site Overhaul

Its about that time, the site has been getting a little old, so its time to grab the fire sauce, bring back the volcano taco, and spice up the site. And Uncle Chalupa wants you! To bring the heat, and not drink the water. As in send in some tight Underground flavor, and keep it raw, no watered down shit. Bring your numero uno 'A' game, and start uploading some new shit. Post your new albums for download. Add some show fliers. Speak your mind on new releases. Review, revamp, and renew. Don't let this Bell Grande get soggy. Bring the freshness, no heat-lamps please. Also, for artists who have a Reverb account, add it to your page and message me saying you want it featured, and your be next in line for 2 weeks of free promotion on the main page. First cum, first service. So, being as I've let you in on the just of the news, and I'm running out of puns, I'll see you next time (and hopefully it won't be as big of a gap) and until then, go grab Twiztid's "W.I.C.K.E.D." album (if you don't yet know, there are three variations) hit up: www.twiztid.com for the full scoop. But, if you want a preview of the version you'll pick up at F.Y.E., hit up the right hand "Video" panal to see the Lo-Def versions of freshness ("HA HA HA HA HA HA" fucking owns)

For now, peace - T

11/1/08 - Post Halloween 2008 Update

Hello my fellow music lovers and Underground creepers/crawlers, get ready to take the Red Pill and enjoy what the Matrix has to offer: ICP has just released their newest Hallowicked single, and for those of you who didn't get a chance to hit up the show and get a copy of the disc, here's that one for you:

ICP - "I'm Your Killer"

Also "Toby and Mason" broadcast "The Graveyard Shift" radio show live last Sunday from Flint Talk Radio and will be doing it again shortly. If you would like to get interviewed to promote your new upcoming album/single/show ect. or just to bullshit about your Halloween feel free to hit us up when we broadcast (time and date coming soon).

And lastly: "The Underground Matrix Compilation: Vol.1" is nearing finish and will be delivered to you shortly. Most of these tracks have already been released, some haven't, and some can only be found on this comp. So there's gonna be some easy shit to find, some difficult shit to find, and some strait up exclusive shit up on this bitch, so keep the ears clean and eyes peeled. (Late entries can be submitted, send them soon)



07/30/08 - Underground Matrix Multi Update

Well the U.M. Compilation is coming along very smoothly, with some bomb ass artists throwing down some hot ass tracks, shits gonna blow. And now that the flame is dangerously close to the fuse its time to start promoting it. "What? How? We don't even know who's on it yet!" - Might be something that just popped into your brain, but I digress that matter...for now. Whats important is I want all you promoters and fans to anticipate this compilation. Not only will it be a handful of tight MP3s, it also has promotional tools for all of the appearing artists and some from a few associates of mine. Now, what I want you all to do until the names are dropped is promote this site and the "Underground Matrix Compilation Album" forum. (Theres a link at the bottom of the right side bar to get banner codes.) If the pre-promotion results are impressive, I'll make sure the album has some extra super-tasty-flavor-nuggets for you to enjoy. (I will make personal sacrifices if necessary to ensure you are impressed back.) Now that thats said, anyone who is planning on doing some serious promo: Keep track of your promotions: if you refer someone, have them mention it, add links to your UM page to where you posted the promo. The top promoter gets a sweet package mailed to you (again, its a surprise) so please, rep the Underground for which it stands and put in some work for the artists who put in so much work for you. Peace - SirT



05/08/08 - Underground Matrix Compilation Update

The first Underground Matrix compilation album is fully underway, anyone who has a track to submit is welcome to. How this works: everyone who submits has someone doing promotion for them (if you don't have a street team, then you probably just do it yourself) in any case, all featured artists will have someone promoting there shit. Put all these artists on one album and have each promo-team distribute the shit. What do you get? An internationally distributed Underground Album. Thats a good amount of promotion, especially when you add in the Underground Matrix promoters (who are on multiple promotion teams/groups and are active promoters). This will be a free release, so use it as a method to promote your new single from your upcoming album, drop an exclusive on it to be fresh, its all up to you.



04/05/08 - SirT Interviews Prozak
This is a short interview I did with Prozak to clear up a few speculations and answer some FAQ's, it was originally meant for JuggaloNews, but they for some reason didn't post it, anyhow, enjoy:

SirT - Prozak Interview


SirT: Whats up Prozak, hows The Hitchcock Of Hip-Hop been lately?

Prozak: Busy as fuck, On the verge of releasing my biggest album ever, And buried in film/dvd projects.

SirT: I hear that. On behalf of JuggaloNews and the fans, could you answer a short list of quick questions?

Prozak: You don't even have to ask, Of course.

SirT: Ok, I'll start with the most common question, what is goin on with "Seekers", any details on what thats all about? Also, "Prozak Goes To Hell", was that where "Seekers" started, or is that a different project in general?

Prozak: Seekers is a straight to dvd project I am working on with a group of like minded paranormal investigators, I have always been intrigued/obsessed with the paranormal I think this is a result of the human curse, Knowing your going to die. Knowing that your going to die can sometimes cause an obsession to find proof of the afterlife. As far as specifics go here's the synopsis for SEEKERS: SEEKERS, is a commercial free and uncensored documentation of paranormal investigation. The episodes will be released nationally on dvd fall 2009. SEEKERS differs from all other ghost hunting programs because of their techniques, high end equipment , and methods of scouting locations. Unlike popular cable shows, SEEKERS is commercial free, it is not censored in anyway. Each episode is based on SEVERAL days worth of investigations, not just one night. This is the best way to truly determining if a location is haunted, or not. SEEKERS uses state of the art digital video/audio to give the viewers the best quality product. Created by group leader PROZAK (the Hitchcock of Hiphop) this dvd series is slated to be ground breaking.

SirT: Sounds fresh, I'm definitely a fan of paranormal investigation and documentations of the like, good to see someone cut the shit and do it right. The second most common question, what was your inspiration behind the "Trapped" video?

Prozak: A combination of things but then again that kind of sums up all my inspirations, If I had to try to explain it I guess it would be a portrayal of the way I feel, Some of the things I would like to do, And a reoccurring dream I can't seem to shake. The "Trapped" video will be on the bonus dvd titled "The Hitchcock Of Hiphop" which will come free with my new album. The song was used in a zombie film called "Locked Away".

SirT: The video was one of the best I'd seen in awhile. Never heard of that movie, I'll have to look into that. Now, I personally know its been awhile, but how long has "Tales From The Sick" been in progress?

Prozak: The album has been in progress for a little over a year and a half. During the making of this album I was simultaneously shooting for the bonus dvd, Finishing a script to a horror film, Writing and directing music videos and commercials for myself, Tech N9ne and Krizz Kaliko. It's been a long two years.

SirT: The commercials for "Tales" were fresh as fuck, did you have your hand in on directing them?

Prozak: Yes, I wrote, produced, directed and even did casting for them.

SirT: Good quality shit. You mentioned at least two music videos for "Tales", which other track had you had in mind, and should we/ when do we expect a new video to drop?

Prozak: The first video to drop will be for the song "Good Enough". The video is more of a short film, Starring one of my favorite character actors Irwin Keyes. Irwin has been in several films over the last 30 something years such as : House Of A Thousand Corpses , The Warriors , Intolerable Cruelty , Tales From The Crypt , Friday The 13th and a fucking ton of television shows. I don't want to say too much right now. I'd rather have you just watch it. The "Good Enough" video was also written/directed/produced by me. I will release it before the albums street date.

SirT: And lastly, what kind of marks do you expect to leave with this album?

Prozak: I'm hoping to leave the mark of what people can expect from me as a solo artist. I am also looking to leave the mark of who I am and what I do. And lastly my goal for this album is to put out the biggest product I possibly can for the consumer's dollar. The album is crammed with 22 actual tracks from the best producers in the Midwest(Mike E. Clark, Seven, Robert Rebeck, The legendary Traxter). I chose what I believe to be the best line up of special guests for this project, ICP, TWIZTID, CYPRESS HILL, TWISTA, TECH N9NE, BLAZE and more. Oh, and of course a free DVD that is packed with exclusive interviews, music videos, and all kinds of shit. Down to the artwork, this album is the highest quality I could possibly put out. I feel this is my responsibility as an artist. Thanks for the interest, much love.

SirT: No problem, thanks for your time and good luck to you in all things.

There you have it, your questions answered, and you heard it here first, definitely make sure you pick this one up.
Prozak - "Tales From The Sick" June 3rd 2008, Strange Music
