Them That Do….. and you’re damn right. “Do” was the right verbiage chosen to represent this group made up of 3 emcees (Phat Hentoff, Jasper Brown, and Chuck Daily) and a beatmaker/producer (Small Professor). Yes, we live in a digital age where collaborations need not occur on a face-to‐face basis, but when they do, it’s quite special. It takes effort for grown men, each with their own individual aims, aspirations, families, and livings to make, to assemble collectively, build with each other, and create music. Songs don’t build themselves and writers don’t all relate to each other, which is what makes the cohesiveness of this unit stand out. Jazz samples and dusty breaks forge the sonic scenery across the length of their upcoming debut album, albeit with a sense of modernity, simply “being”, as opposed to “trying to be”.
