ABOUT "LVL Up" - as the originators of the Milwaukee hip hop scene in 1995 knowing that the Rusty Ps are releasing a 20 year reunion album in 2015, Mike Regal on the verge of releasing 2 albums this year, and Dana Coppafeel releasing track after track the last few years, this would not be a collaboration to pass up for Uni-Fi Records!!!

Rusty Ps: Established in Milwaukee, WI in 1995, the Rusty Ps (formerly “Rusty Pelicans”) have played an instrumental role in the Midwest underground music scene. For nearly 2 decades, the Ps have been touring nationally and internationally bringing their unique style of hip hop to the world. The Rusty Ps have had many releases, local, national and international, over their almost 20 year career. In previous releases they have featured Imani of the Pharcyde and Slug of Atmosphere. They have released independently and released under Grand Central Records (UK). At home they have been recognized numerous times by the Wisconsin Area Music Industry as the state’s premier hip hop group. Revered by fans and critics alike, the Rusty Ps continue to create and produce their own brand of original hip hop music

Mike Regal: Born and raised in Milwaukee WI, 25 yr old Mike Regal gears up with an arsenal of releases for 2015. Aside from 2 prior beat tapes, and production credits on songs that have already been on some of the major blogs, Regal has never released anything to the public but is already having huge draws when playing out his unreleased material at venues all over the city. This may be due to his stellar 2014 "Miltown Beatdown" performance as he dominated the championship slaying 31 other producers in Milwaukee's 10th annual premiere producer battle.
Mike's passion for production began in high school and quickly accelerated when two of his teachers, who ran a studio, heard something that he was working on at the time. Immediately they took interest to the young producer and took him under their wing, helping him get and learn software and develop what would become his signature sample based and hype, drum heavy style. Regal would at first make production for friends and write for himself on the side, but as the streets consumed many of the artists he would produce for he decide to branch out and started to record himself at the age of 19. Recently had his first single "Keep Smoking" premiere on the Source.

Dana Coppafeel: As seen on MTV.com;Rolling Stone;Complex Mag;URBMag;Respect Mag.
Battle-scarred, Midwestern rapper Dana Coppafeel has been an outspoken voice in the regions underground hip-hop scene since the mid-90s. Few Milwaukee hip-hop artists have a resume as long or impressive as Coppas, whose most recent notables include collaborating with Action Bronson on the successful single Hot Shots Part Deux and opening for Cypress Hill at Summerfest - the Worlds Largest Music Festival - with KingHellBastard (KHB).
As a former member of award-winning indie groups like the Rusty Ps, Intel Agents and KHB, hes opened for or performed with artists including Common, Wu-Tang, Q-Tip, Souls of Mischief, Akrobatik, RA The Rugged Man, Eyedea and Abilities, Raashan Ahmad, Count Bass D and All Natural, and made memorable albums that boast sales as far away as Germany and Japan.
The video for the first single, from the upcoming 2013 project, One of These Kids (November 2012) premiered on MTVhive.com, who wrote, Honestly, it sounds like a great day: playground, shoe-shopping and cake consumption rolled into one.
A self-described bad kid from an even worse city (Rockford, IL), Coppa got his start battle-rapping as a teenager - a legacy you can still hear in his often aggressive, hardscrabble tone and acute freestyle skills. Peppered with lyrical punch lines, his rhymes float like a fever dream from nonsensical and witty to heartfelt and conscientious.
Once called a loudmouth by the press, Coppa has never been shy about sharing his opinions or life experiences.
