The
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania duo of Crumb and JustTraxx better
known as Dope Means are unveiled their debut LP Government Funded onto the world not too long ago. The group is led by MC
Crumb who joined the Army and was deployed to Iraq and
recently returned to the States.
Crumb used his paychecks from “Operation New Dawn 11-12” to fund this LP,
which focuses on corruption, the politics of war and all aspects of life and
their love of their home town Pittsburgh. Though not a political group, many of
their songs focus on the current political climate and the effects they've had
on their lives as both soldiers and civilians.
Government Funded features thirteen tracks and features
guest appearances by Timbo King (Wu-Tang), Planet Asia, Reef the Lost Cauze and
Ras Kass alongside production from C-Lance (JMT), Bronze Nazareth, Vherbal &
Ziko. A&R’d by longtime HipHop
impresario M-Eighty (Wu-Tang / DPG / Undergods) fame, this LP represents the
call of duty found within all mankind as delivered via raw lyricism and classic
boom bap tales. Enjoy!!
