Rxlngr Slings Musical Gems

rxlngr_logo.jpgRock Slinger Incorporated is one of those independent labels that manages to be innovative, diverse and talented. Little more than a year old, it already has an impressive roster of artists, including Bounce-Worthy Muhsinah and musician Arthur Lewis (who's forthcoming EP was just mastered). Brooklyn-based Rxlngr is part of the groundswell of multifaceted, savvy independents taking a bottom-up approach to multimedia infiltration. Also: the music is good.

It's great to see a hustle that maintains some artistic integrity and dedication to a unique sound. Some of the music borders on esoteric, sure, but thankfully Rxlngr doesn't appear to be too concerned. The label should be on your radar if it's not already. According to its website, "it's only a matter of time before Rxlngr is dictating the soundscape of the western world."

For a taste of what Rxlngr has to offer, check out some live performance videos from Muhsinah and Lewis after the bounce.

You're right, Amelia, she is a musician. And a good one at that. She did a collaboration with Arthur Lewis a while back (I think the track is on his website). Mec Zilla is a creative force to be reckoned with on many fronts!

Just thought I'd say Mec Zilla AKA Rxlngr is also a musician in her own right & a generally pretty cool individual.

arthur lewis is the truth!
