They are a Crystal-popping, party-jam-rocking, cash-flashing strike force doing battle against the Infesticons, another concept crew/rival posse that's all about difficult-to-digest, "abstract" production and pseudo-sophisticated lyricism. In this war of the worlds, the victor wins total control of hip-hop's future. The <I>Star Wars</I>-like saga began in 1999 with the release of the Infesticons' <I>Gun Hill Road</I>, and continued in 2003 with the Majesticons' <I>Beauty Party.</I> While both albums' biting satire and subterranean status will likely keep them from the ears of the people they're actually addressing, many indie-rap heads (especially those who dug Def Jux's S.A. Smash project) will find them hilarious and entirely on point. A third and final chapter of this epic struggle is said to be in the works. - Brolin WinningIndie Rap/Hip-Hopen720Tue, 22 Dec 2009 11:04:29 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.61032&variant=artist-playlists&rws=%2Fthe-majesticons%2Fplaylists.rss A conceptual crew masterminded by hip-hop enigma Mike Ladd, the Majesticons embody all things "commercial rap."
