Succumb Album Art - Lil Known Facts



Dude, Havanah Maxie KILLED this album artwork... she's quite the designer beast! A lotta muffoccurs have been asking about the significance of the visuals, so we thought we'd give a lil insight/fun-facts about how it came to be...

1.) We all know how much Tshurhad Chivas LOVES his ties... the problem was that he wasn't happy with how the wind had twisted it all up on the original album photo. Not to worry! HavMax knew she could easily "photoshop" his tie into its proper position... lol, chuch!

2.) Our photoshoot took place at the homie Floyd The Fourth's backyard/courtyard. During the middle of the shoot, he pulls out this big dopeass boombox as a prop, just playing around... it ends up inspiring the whole concept behind our album theme/identity. Thanks Bud!

3.) The tie around HavMax's head was originally to be worn properly around her neck... but at the last-minute, she thought it would be dope to rock it bohemian-headband style. It just kinda worked... can u say new fashion trend?!

4.) The global figure in the background represents the Earth & the moon all in one... it's life & death while also representing the dual nature of man, yin & yang, conflict & balance, all that good stuff.

5.) The geometrical-circular pattern behind us is called the "Flower of Life". According to wikipedia and other sacred sources, it represents "a visual expression of the connections life weaves through all sentient beings." The intricate design possesses every-known shape or form within itself. So basically it represents everything universal... sorta like the sound of Kinky Notti.

6.) The boombox represents "audio ammunition" which we use to combat this world of turmoil. On it we've placed our one common wish: PEACE TO THE BABIES!

SXSW Blind-I Quality Showcase 2010

Yo SXSW was insane! Shouts to the homie Nolis for these tight shots ((video footage of our shows & more coming soon))... These stills are from our performance at the Blind-I Quality Showcase @ Soho Lounge in Austin. We kicked off the Chicago lineup with a short-n-sweet 10-min set. At first we were like 10 mins? Can u say A-D-H-D? but we found out that's how it goes down at south by. Gotta give em your hottest shit & keep it moving. Anyway, this set was dope, even tho most cats in the audience were from Chi & had never even seen us rock. You know we had to get it in & bless em all with the new CD, Kink Not?!

Dancing is crazy when u think about it... to stand up & start rhythmically contorting the body, rolling, flailing & pelvis-pumping around the room seems utterly ridiculous in theory. But in practice, dancing is the shit... it's expression like no other. It takes some to new spiritual heights & defines cultures, time, etc. which brought us to think: who was the first muffoccur to actually get up & choreograph some shit? Like, to the degree that different spots around the world started having their own dances, claiming their territory with moves... like we percolate over here!
