Album Notes

9/11 changed everything...Even hip hop. Addek returns to the underground with his solo debut. Hip Hop 9/11 is an explosively controversial new release on the independent label Realityhiphop.com. Hip Hop 9/11 grips listeners from the politically charged intro all the way to the subliminal hidden track. This M.C. is making the industry take a serious look at independent artists and the lyrical threat they pose. Addek takes it away on Critikal Timez as he sends a call out to all, evoking a warrior spirit with prophetical rhymes that detail a 9/11 conspiracy. Hip Hop 9/11 contains material so controversial that Addek was forced offstage by a show organizer to prevent offending the citys mayor. The politically charged classic Critikal Timez was the culprit, a usual crowd favorite. This underground classic was the opening song for Mabili Ajani's long running show "Critical Times" on WMNF's 88.5. This track is also featured in Aftershock a documentary that contains other music produced by Addek. Tracks like “Da A double D” with fast paced baseline, catchy rhymes and addictive chorus, courtesy of vocalist Renee H. keep hip-hop heads bobbin. Soulja Ragz demonstrates Tampa's Atlanta influence with Lil John inspired mania that evokes an uncontrollable bounce from listeners. Stayondamove takes you on a lyrical journey into the everyday hustle of the independent game over a synth induced hook that you can't help but be mesmerized by.

Addek released Hip hop 9/11 on his independent label Realityhiphop.com which he started as a producer in 2003. Addek has just finished a B.A. in Political Science @ U.S.F. Now Addek is working on aggressively expanding his label. He has a creative partnership with Sunburnt Studio based out of Sarasota, Fl. Together they are working on an equally explosive video for Critikal Timez due out soon. Addek is also working on his next release Rise 2 Power, Which is poised 2 propel Hip Hop to a new level of truth.

Addek also referred to as "The Huey Newton of Hip Hop" commandeered the Underground hip hop scene in Tampa in early 2003. He appeared on WMNF 88.5's compilation Unified Collision. "

Overall this is the most influential release since Public Enemy’s It Takes A Nation of Millions. Hip hop's next great lyricist has entered the game, this time he chooses the independent route. A catalyst to the new progressive shift in Hip Hop, Don't be the last to hear Hip Hop 9/11, an underground classic…
