Team Facelift Are Getting Paid To Rage
"Sexual Perversions"
The world of music is a constant evolution of sound, style, personality and
at the very core a form of entertainment. Team Facelift is a product of
the revolution in modern day sound. A New York-bred rap group consisting of
three MCs, Machine, Fat Jew and Fonda, along with one producer, Tommy Mas,
the groups aim is to pave their own unique lane in Hip Hop.
When describing their current music being created Team Facelift states,
"it is a diverse sound. Of course we're known as rappers, and it's obvious
that we are cut above pretty much any of our contemporaries when it comes to
lyrics, so the people demand we come equipped with that straight up hip
hop. At the same time we're also moving in the direction of house music, and
not that cheeseball glam/electro sound, but more classic New York
underground house sound. It is reminiscent of what you would hear while wilding out
at "The Tunnel" in the mid 90's when house music still had elements of hip
hop. That's a look nobody is getting after these days, but we guarantee it's
going to pop. The fans can expect wet shirts, us doing it big like Ricki
Lake's thighs, arena rap, unlimited babes, exploding cars, warm gin, good hip
hop music and non-stop action!"
Team Facelift have been working diligently over the past several years
building an organic following. The group released a digital only album in 2006
entitled "Mixed Emotions." In 2007, MTV handpicked Team Facelift as the
first artists to debut their 52/52 music promotion campaign, which showcased
the group in comedic skits and performances during MTV commercial breaks.
This exposure placed Team Facelift on the radar of Red Bull North America,
who teamed with the group for Red Bull's "Banned on the Run" promotion. The
program, set to be activated in the Fall of 2009, will consist of surprise
performances from Team Facelift at major Colleges & Universities in the
North East and Mid-Atlantic regions of the US. Adding to this, the E!
Channel's Executive-Producers for the popular show, "THE DAILY 10" have selected
Team Facelift to become the New York bureau of "The Daily 10", conducting
'man-on-the street, public opinion, and one-on-one interviews of the NYC
entertainment scene, while adding their unique brand of color and humor to the
segment.
Now readying their first official national release, tentatively scheduled
for the Fall of 2009, Team Facelift enlisted Producer/DJ/Remixer Junior
Sanchez, who has worked with the likes of Daft Punk, Madonna, Shakira, Katy
Perry and Good Charlotte, as an Executive-Producer on the project. His
responsibilities will be to sonically enhance and mix each record. For Junior
Sanchez, working with Team Facelift was a no brainer because "they encompass
everything that I like in a band. They are witty, fun, accessible, creative
and not to mention CRAZY. That adds up to a dynamic recipe for success! I
can't wait until this record is complete and to see the world react."
