About Me:

When Hip Hop first began it was about not following the bandwagon but making the bangwagon follow you , music with a message , not crafting your style after another mans but inventing your own , the artist who was most original , creative and lyrical was the one who wore the crown when the the dust settled , if these words where to describe any one emcee right now it would be England born.

Jamacain descent , New Jersey native Cymarshall Law , as if frozen in a time capsle when Hip Hop was in its early beginnings and released in the future where some say Hip Hop is Dead and others proclaim its alive and well Law steps out from behind curtains seemily at the time when he is needed most with his debut album HIP HOP IN THE FLESH , the title alone garners one to quickly begin unravelling the package to see what this young veteran has to offer. Cymarshall Law first got his start joining the group Everliven Sound who was at the time on Big Jus of Company Flows now dismantled label Subverse Music, which harbored artists such as MF Doom , Micronauts and C Rayz Walz.

Cymarshall Law and partner/brother Skit Slam went on to begin their own company Freedom Entertainment and independantly pressed 2000 copies of a vinyl EP titled Everlution , the release of this album jolted the group forward impressing college radio DJ's all over the nation. Off this buzz Cymarshall Law was able to tour



the U.K. and establish himself as an emcee to watch performing all over the U.S. east coast and at prolific events such as Scribble Jam and Rocksteady Reunion alongside new found friend and partner in crime Pumpkinhead. After Law's partner Skit Slam moved to the U.K. , Law consistently put out 2 cd's a year , each selling at least 1500 copies a piece on his own without a
backing just grind and legwork. In 2004 Cymarshall was named Rookie of the Year by onetime Bobitto Garcia protege Sucio Smash of WKCR's 89.9 Squeeze Radio. Last year okayplayer.com had this to say about Cymarshall Law "If you’re a fan of good hip-hop and clever wordplay, make it a point to check out Cymarshall Law". An emcee driven by pure passion for the art , someting about Cymarshall Law seems old school as if he uses his spirit to pay homage to forefathers and greats that came before him but on the flipside he is new and refreshing with a style that could only be commanded by the creator.

The definition of the word versatile in a time in Hip Hop where so many sound the same Law effortlessly pulls off what most could only dream of with story telling skills that have been compared to the likes of Slick Rick and Nas. Most recently Law has been casted as a Headliner for Canada's national DMC Championship in 2006 alongside Juice, Pumpkinhead and Peatnut Butter Wolf. So far in his short yet impressive career he has shared stages with Mos Def , Talib Kweli , Jean Grae , Rah Digga, Immortal Technnique , Bootcamp Clik , Murs, Brother Ali , Last Emperor , Wordsworth , J-Live and a list of many other greats. All of his accomplishments have brought him to this point.

In 2007 we will see the re-emergence of Freedom Entertainment, to them Freedom means break the chains, being free to do what you like , no restraints, no formulas , just good music , great music. Their first project will be the Cymarshall Law debut album and Law’s best work to date perfectly titled HIP HOP IN THE FLESH, an album that keeps any listener head nodding from beginning to end, this album is not about famous guest appearances or producers with " a name " what it is about is Hip Hop in its purest , rawest form before to get a deal you needed a gimmick , originality , creativity , versatility , lyrics , flow, delivery and bangin’ beats like the way we like to remember Hip Hop the most. With only one guest emcee being his brother/partner Skit Slam and guest singer Sasha Solette of his home town in England, Law shows he can easily hold down a full length on his own. As Hip Hop in the Flesh finishes you can't help but to think this is only the very beginning for Law who seems to be only showing the tip of the iceberg , the best next logical step for the game , Cymarshall Law is Hip Hop in the Flesh.
