AWAR

AWAR is the classic embodiment of an emcee. He released a certified classic album, 'Glory Days' in 2005. He has seen most of America whip by through a tour van's window. He was rocked microphones and shattered jawlines alike. Always a consummate professional, he waited a rough apprenticeship in Upstate NY, a place of slate sky and abandoned storefronts. But now his time has come. He is most often found with iCON the Mic King, his rhyming partner on the upcoming "Headphone Classics Volume 1" series. You seen him in the videos too where he drifted with the tide and fell from grace. The man's man and rapper's rapper is ready with his second LP "Laws of Nature"where the Alchemist is rumored to have lent a fiery hand. Box cutter quotables, a private eye's intuition, and a distinctive east coast alto make Awar the finest rapper heard from in a long while. He has his eye to the streets and the notebook, the stage and the booth, the now and the infinite. You don't need to check for him. He will be here soon enough." -Daniel Muessig
