Grayskul is an American hip hop duo based in Seattle, Washington , consisting of rappers Onry Ozzborn and JFK Ninjaface.[1] Since its formation in 2003, the group has released ten solo albums.[2] The duo often collaborate with artists from the Pacific Northwest hip hop collective Oldominion .[3]
History [ edit ]
In 2003, Onry Ozzborn and JFK, both members of the Pacific Northwest hip hop collective Oldominion , teamed up with bassist Rob Castro to form Grayskul. They recorded about 55 songs in 8 months at ATB Studios; these would eventually become the albums Creature , Thee Adventures! and Deadlivers .[4] After opening for Eyedea & Abilities , their music was brought to the attention of Rhymesayers Entertainment .[5]
Grayskul's label debut, Deadlivers , was released in 2005.[6] It featured guest appearances such as Canibus , Mr. Lif and Abstract Rude . The album also featured the song "Secret Wars", which featured the Oldominion emcees that had been in the group at the time.[7]
In 2007, Grayskul released their second album on Rhymesayers Entertainment, Bloody Radio ,[8] this time with Onry Ozzborn going by the name Count Draven and JFK going by the name Count Magnus.[9] While this album excluded Rob Castro,[10] Cage , Slug and Aesop Rock provided guest verses.[11]
In 2009, Grayskul in collaboration with producer Maker released Graymaker on Taxidermy Records.[12] In an interview with Seattle Weekly , Onry Ozzborn said: "Of the albums we've done in the past, we've never had a whole project that's straight-ahead hip-hop ... People always say our stuff is dark, weird, bugged-out, but I think this one will catch people by surprise. [Maker's] beats in general made us write different. He uses more breakbeats, slower BPMs, so you'll be able to hear that."[13]
In 2013, Grayskul released Zenith on Fake Four Inc. [14]
Style and influences [ edit ]
Members of Grayskul cited Cannibal Ox 's The Cold Vein as an important influence.[15]
