Monsters Ink - Its been a long time

Thats that Monsters Ink... Plane Jane, Rossi, Davonna Lee, B Younger & ST Spittin, Flyyy and Chris R.O.C. (Chris R.O.C is the newest member of Monsters Ink so he is not in the picture to the left but he is just as much as apart of this cohesive unit as anyone else. With a unique  combination of 2 artists from Oakland, 3 artists from Richmond and 2 artists from San Francisco, we undeniably represent "The New Bay," We represent the dawn of the "Hybrid artists" Artist who maintain the wisdom and older teaching of Hip Hop & R&B, artists who follow the basics of making great music while still managing to bridge the gap between good and great music. Artists who can rap, sing, write R&B and Rap songs, produce beats, shoot/edit video, photo and web graphics. 
We have complete creative control over anything we put together, we market and manage ourselves.  We use the past as a reference but we use it to transcend into the future setting our own trends and letting everyone else follow them. We don't try to keep up with the times of evolution because we naturally mature within our own personal lives, our music, our listeners and the shifting times and events around us.

Monsters Ink is not a gang, we are not a music group. We are a prestigious group of solo artists who have been inducted into Monsters Ink. Its a privilege to be in Monsters Ink, so we don't just let anyone in it unless we feel they are a Monster at whatever it is they do. Reason being, we don't have time to mold artists, we function without any weak links, we only demand great artists, but just because your great doesn't mean you will automatically be inducted into Monsters Ink, we are like a fraternity, a league of extraordinary ladies and gentlemen. 

Cocky the message comes off, and on my part yes. But my cockiness is driven by my confidence, which is derived from my skills; what I can do over a beat or off of a beat, what I can write and put into words. I'm not just blowing smoke... There is a method to my madness. Monsters Ink was created in 2008, but established in 2009. Myself and Plane Jane are the mother and father of this Elite all star team, but this team has no coach. We are all Beyonce's, there are no Kelly's or Michelle's, we are all chiefs, no indians. There is no leader of Monsters Ink because we are all leaders. 

If your into this article then your probably asking yourself this question," Where is the Music?" Its coming sooner than you think, just be patient. Trust that we will deliver as promised... Everyone is currently working on their solo projects why we are all collectively working on the Monsters Ink project. Look forward to great music, we are not trying to be anything because we are already great at just being ourselves and the music will reflect that. 

We welcome anyone who wants to work with us, anyone who wants to just hang out with us, we just be chillin and making music. Light up a blunt and freestyle, or write a song, thats a typical Monsters Ink session. We ain't no bullshitters so we ain't on no bullshit. Of course everyone has a deeper personality, and we are all more than meets thee eye. So unless you know us... You really don't know us, but we want the world to know us and what we are about, we want all of our peers who make music and any fans of good music to know that we are here now, your prayers have been answered. If you got 99 problems with music, we definitely are not going to be one of them.
