Vokab Kompany Indie / Hip Hop / Electronica

"Electronic angst for post-millennium punks." -San Diego Reader

"A sound whose genre goes something like; hip-hop, soul, elector, funk. You have two Emcees who charge sped-up lyrical flows; made to sound effortless. Rob & Burkey have realized an impressive and seamless synergy with their voices and their lyrics are playfully vivacious and positive. Set those lyrics atop the 5 piece band, layered with creative electro beats and it makes for a very fun and a dance-worthy music experience." Sam Dorman, NBC San Diego

Their Latest album "The New Kong" is in its final stages of production and will feature cameos from national and international acts such as Lateef the Truth Speaker (Mighty Underdogs, Latyrx, Blackalicious), J-Boogie (dubtronic science), RadioActive (Spearhead), The Mutaytor, Mc Souleye and BLVD, Freddy Machete (uber beat smith featured w/ Mac Dre, Andre Nikatina), Solovox...and MAS MAS MORE. "... On this bright San Francisco night it was the opening act Vokab Kompany that really blew us away...they kept the crowd going more than any opening act I have seen in a long while. Del was good but had I not known the tracks he was playing it might have gotten a bit stagnant. Vokab Kompany's record should be dropping soon, and there are some surprises, so stay tuned." Matt Halverson, PerfSpot.com
