Specs One Releases "gRAPhics"

One of Seattle hip hop's founding figures strikes back with his latest musical creation. A pillar of Seattle Hip Hop, Specs One (also known as Specs Wizard) continues to inspire with his many talents including emceeing, producing, visual art and writing.

Who Is.. Suntonio Bandanaz?!

A listen to the CD reveals a highly skilled, verbally dexterous emcee with a hard edge smoothed by elevated flow, and ability to chop at a pace that smartens the listener's ear. A sophisticated lyricist committed to keeping rap clever, his distinctive style has influenced many other local up-and-comers over the years. Suntonio Bandanaz is a core emcee and spearhead of the pioneering hiphop collective Alpha P. (1st Platoon). One of Seattle's most prolific in "Underground Hip Hop", Suntonio Bandanaz (aka Asun or Maddwon) has appeared on hundreds of tracks and has indy-released over a dozen projects. Master of the hustle, he is a local legend who has moved over ten thousand units- mostly hand to hand on the streets. Over the years Bandanaz has shared stages with the respected likes of Afrika Bambaataa, Dead Prez, Percee P, The Jacka and Living Legends; and has collaborated with Seattle's most prominent emcees.

“Who is Suntonio Bandanaz?!” is widely considered the best solo album from Alpha-P recorded to date. Featuring production by dj100 Proof, PhreeWil, WD4D, Audeos (as well as Blake & Dead Noise) and with appearances by Gabriel Teodros, Khingz, Macklemore, Julie C., Kas-1 and Skim, the record is one of the most anticipated, groundbreaking new projects from the Northwest.
