SHULACED ENTERTAINMENT ARTIST EL CAJON TEZ DEBUTS “THA ALBUM”
SHULACED ENTERTAINMENT ARTIST EL CAJON TEZ MAKES DEBUT WITH RELEASE OF “THA ALBUM” 
San Diego, CA--Shulaced Entertainment artist El Cajon Tez releases his first full-length album, THA ALBUM (Shulaced Entertainment / City Hall). Rising up from San Diego’s underground rap scene, Zantez “El Cajon Tez” Avant writes whether he’s rapping or not. “I’m a writer and rap is an outlet. I write everyday and I write about everything… It’s how I process life. I write it down.”
THA ALBUM, produced by DJ Rek, Haze Banga, J Elliot Ness, D. Moss, Cairo, S.C. and BatKave, features the likes of San Diego’s I-Rocc, Dyson, Tommy Redding, Harmoney, Jaz and Jamaica. Tez recorded THA ALBUM at Shulaced Entertainment’s studio, The Lab, known best for where The Jacka and 12 Gauge Shotie’s new album PRICE OF MONEY was recorded.
Tez doesn’t believe circumstance dictates life. The songs on THA ALBUM reflect this notion. Having moved with his mom to San Diego to escape dire circumstances in East St. Louis, he feels that no matter what life throws at you, you have to make things happen for yourself. He raps not only about his own experiences, but of those around him. His biggest inspirations are his life and his kids. “I represent the struggle. I write what I see and experience, whether it’s the party or trying to put food on the table. I look reality dead in the face. I speak on the good and the bad, and some people don’t like the bad but it’s there and I got to talk about it.”
Musically, Tez draws inspiration from hiphop pioneers Snoop, E40, 2Short, Jay-Z, Tupac and Biggie. “If there is a thing called ‘underground’ or ‘mainstream,’ I would be stuck right in the middle,” Tez says of his music. Already a big part of the San Diego Hip hop movement, Tez has performed at San Diego State, UCLA, UC Santa Barbara, Faces and House of Blues San Diego opening for Young Jeezy, Lil’ Wayne, and Pitbull.

What's The Science? and DJ K.O. on CNET!! Download "Higher" and "Someday" Feat. Talib Kweli
What happens when a world-renowned jazz visionary teams up with a passionate, thought-provoking emcee with a love for true hip-hop?
The answer is another question…What's The Science?
Lil Sci (John Robinson) and Carlos Nino’s hip-hop/ jazz-fusion also channels elements of soul and electronica to create a truly unique and eclectic sound. "WTS is a direct tribute to the early 90's Elektra records," says Lil Sci. "At that time, Elektra Records was signing acts like Pete Rock and CL Smooth, Brand Nubian, and launched the whole era of, conscious, thought-provoking music that made it cool to be an intellectual. It was the emergence of hip hop as a culture that young people could embrace and relate to."
With plans to reignite the passion and positivity that seems to have eluded hip-hop in recent years, What's The Science? is set to release their full-length album, Elevation on September 23.
Listen, vote and download What's The Science?'s new song HIGHER. Their new album "Elevation" drops September 23!
The New Jersey native known as DJ KO (Keenan Ornsby) has teamed up with Shaman Work Recordings to release the best hip-hop compilation to come out in years.
Picture This matches a seemingly endless roster of hip-hop's hottest MC's with an equally impressive group of producers. The result is a tribute to hip-hop's past, present, and future.
Veterans like Diamond D, OC, Masta Ace, and Ed OG bring back the past, while lyricists like Talib Kweli, Elzhi (Slum Village), Phonte (Little Brother) and Royce da 5'9 represent today's hottest performers, and newbies like Skyzoo, Kaze, Superstition, Silent Knight and Tiffany Paige set the bar for what's to come. Featuring tracks produced by Black Milk, Buckwild, Analogic, 9th Wonder and M-Phazes (to name a few) the album definitely has something for everyone.
