In a Hip Hop world polluted with monotony and the lack of lyrical content, 2 Real 4 da Mind is a breath of fresh air. With their rapid fire delivery and consc
One of the finest upcoming Hip-Hop groups in the Midwest, 2 Real 4 da Mind the Colorado based group made their debut in the music business in 2002. Recording their first album, “Color Blind” in a recording studio created by group member K-OSS. Color Blind’s two hits where “Watz Up” which was about 2 Real discussing world issues like Poverty and Racism. Another hit song was “R.I.P.” which was about the attacks on September 11, Targeting George Bush and the general public. Color Blind, was a very challenging experience for the group. 2 Real had a message and it was clear, they where speaking out against Racism, Violence, Poverty, Politics, and many other social issues. “The hardest part of promoting this album was that our message was clear and no one wanted to hear all that song after song.” Said K-OSS, describing Color Blind. The Group comprised of K-OSS (Jimmy Macias), Siklone (Anthony Romero), and Leezy (Larry Harris). Now are recording their sophomore album “A Storm is Commin”. Which contains the hits “A Storm is Commin”, which talks about 2 Real as a group. “Stories” is another fan favorite; this is more of a comic style song where Siklone, Leezy, and K-OSS confess their secrets about the people they meet at clubs and parties. 2 Real still keeps their message in songs like “Pouring rain” where 2 Real talks about three different situations of people growing up in the ghetto and how easy it is to fail in this society. 2 Real 4 da Mind has a very unique sound consisting of fast slick rhymes; with slower down south rap all mixed with an R&B style of singing. Not only does 2 Real have a Variety in the sound they also have a great variety in the songs and beats. Every track is different then the other. 2 Real has songs for every fan. It is hard to find someone who doesn’t like at least one of 2 Real’s songs. 2 Real has performed at many shows, schools, and protests all around the state of Colorado, also performing in Las Vegas at the Palms Hotel. The largest crowd 2 Real has performed for contained about 2,000 people. 2 Real 4 da Mind is gradually gaining credibility from producers, other artists and most importantly, fans of all ages ranging from elementary to senior citizens. 2 Real 4 da Mind has talked to many record labels such as local independent labels to labels of the stature Atlantic, Thugline, Major Label entertainment, and Deftone. Despite the talk of deals 2 Real is still self employed under K-OSS’ record label 24 Nocturnal only because they have yet to find a legit deal.

What’s up? 2 Real 4 da Mind (K-OSS) With all that’s going on in this world to day all this hate this murder children starving I only have one question. What’s up with the world that we living in Yes its being said again citizens sit on sins be all about the dividends Living with the privilege how did it get as sick as this The pressure be burning like its syphilis But what we forgetting is the future of our little kids But before you get pissed and dis take a second to listen a bit We complaining in a country where the average bum is richer then a third of the world Think of that boys and girls! Many people think its wrong that the people in the pentagon Won’t even touch with tongs the vision of their kids in arms Let me see you visit Vietnam in a week you be dead or robbed But you whine about your office job tell me how often do you talk to God? I stare at the American veterans no comparison The low benefits aint fare to them on the street I see a pair of them The dollars they be sharing them while the president just aint prevalent Its evident the confederate benefit from what’s not heaven sent My mind won’t move on form this tropical storm! Katrina got so many victims many more died at FIMA’s fingers I can’t believe this so I fall to my knees and pray to Jesus Come and teach this human species and lead us to keep these politicians on their leashes (Hook) Wuzup wuzup wuzup wuzup Wuzup with the world today Wuzup wuzup wuzup wuzup Wuzup with the world today Wuzup wuzup wuzup wuzup Wuzup with the world today Wuzup wuzup wuzup wuzup Wuzup with the world today (Siklone) Just take a minute close your eyes and visualize A better world we could be living in a better world where we can raise our children And everything would be so lovely just chilling and living our lives with no worries Imagine that we would be able to turn on our televisions see no conflictions and in addition to that Seeing nobody with addictions to crack and wouldn’t nobody be missing the facts and There wouldn’t be nobody blind to the situation that we facing I’m talking about rape and molestation And people wouldn’t need any motivation in order to get some extra education Even when it comes down to consensual sex everybody would be couscous with their selection And only be doing it when they fill affection and only when they have protection And nobody would have any problems getting tested and we have the mentality like who are we To determine when it’s someone’s time to go that aint our job it’s Gods so say no to the murder mo Huh and everybody be hitting the lottery and nobody be living in poverty And there would be no more robberies so why don’t we think about living in harmony Cuz that’s not the way it is but it’s a possibility on how we can live Living in this world we feeling naked yo what’s up with this world today kid? (Hook) Wuzup wuzup wuzup wuzup Wuzup with the world today Wuzup wuzup wuzup wuzup Wuzup with the world today Wuzup wuzup wuzup wuzup Wuzup with the world today Wuzup wuzup wuzup wuzup Wuzup with the world today (Lyrical Hitman) What’s wrong with the kids today? Influenced by the images displayed turn into runaways Seeking for better days they want to be in the gang try to hang but can’t handle the bang bang. Want to be what they see on TV becoming greedy taking from the needy Kids in Africa saying feed me! People in poverty saying free me! Now its time for a change enough of playing the blame game Got fame but living in shame We living in drug abuse prostitutes people trying anything to make the loot Right, right don’t care who died as long as your money grows sky high Don’t care who you stepped on its wrong got my mind blown asking what’ s going on! (Hook) Wuzup wuzup wuzup wuzup Wuzup with the world today Wuzup wuzup wuzup wuzup Wuzup with the world today Wuzup wuzup wuzup wuzup Wuzup with the world today
