As hip hop finds itself crossing and mashing genres in an era of "swag" and "patron", ears are polluted with simple rhymes and copy cat styles. While sifting through the disillusion, super producer Danja Handz (credits including but not limited to Timbaland, Justin Timberlake, T.I., Brittney Spears) inked childhood friend, Virginia recording artist CaliStylz to his N.A.R.S. Records. While taking the last year to make his mark on the independent scene, trade marking him as "The Animated" blazing shows across the south east. He relates to the Hip Hop music culture in its purest form, but is convinced that the real future for this genre of music is "Universal Hip Hop". Cali defines universal Hip Hop as "something for all the people that is real and can be related to from the streets to the home. All ages of Hip Hop lovers can groove to the beat and hear lessons of life from those who have learned them the hard way. They can listen and "take heed" or "take heart" from lyrics that tell it like it is. They can draw their own conclusion as to their choice for experiencing or choosing not to experience things in life that are positive or things that have the potential to bring you down. In his journey, through a mutual producer/colleague Terrence KnightHeet (Producer of the yet released Big Boi & T.I. collaboration "Tambourine") CaliStylz met an up and coming producer named Kentucky Jones and his artist, ˝ of E.R., Decatur, Georgia’s own Raphie. Together, the three combined to create the masterpiece now known as F.E.A. (Frequently Entertaining Audiences). F.E.A. features 14 tracks of straight funk produced by Danja Handz, Kentucky Jones, MastaMoore, Owe, DMR, Millz & The Have. Guest vocals by G.D.B. (Of The Raign), London Taylor, Owe, Craig Bass & Express (of E.R.). The album brings a breath of originality and non-stop lyricism so join these three as they take you to a lane that has been missing in music and left a void.
