Need a respite from all the hip hop/R&B/soul/jazz tracks that have been bombarding your eardrums lately? Feel like rocking out a bit more now that the weather's heating up?
Kudu may have the answer your ears are feening for. The Brooklyn-based duo have been doing their thing for quite some time now, gained the attention of tastemakers such as
The Fader magazine, and will be releasing a remix album due in June.
Illvia a/k/a
Sylvia the Ill is quite a sight for those who appreciate the brooding sexiness of
Prince protegée
Vanity and women with a little meat on their bones, while her musical cohorts
Dirty D. and
Nicco provide the beats. Their concert performances border on an exercise in controlled chaos which makes it ever so interesting to watch. Hopefully they won't be circulating in the unsigned sphere for too much longer.

I absolutely LOVE Kudu!!! Thank you for giving them some shine. D is actually an accomplished drummer. Writing and playing on Me'Shell N'Degeocello's "The World Has Made Me The Man Of MY Dreams."
