One of the most promising talents to emerge in hip hop's recent years is Aman, two brothers... one voice. Brothers Amaar and Siege embody the true nature of hip hop as they bring to light the struggle of todays youth. Aman in arabic literally means "to protect", and they strive to create protection for hip hop's dying spirit.
Inspired by the likes of Tupac, Talib Kweli, and Nas, Aman is out to revolutionize the industry. Aman is one of the few independent groups to have music featured in major motion pictures (Scary Movie 3) and (Rasing Helen), and one of televisions highest rated shows (CSI Miami).
The group is now working closely with Tupac's mutli-platinum producer Johnny J and Napoleon of Tupac's Outlawz.
Life, with its many ups and downs, has given Aman a lot to reflect on. The brothers have had their share of run-ins with the law and near-death experiences (Amaar was shot in the head just before his 18th birthday). Their street cred combined with a social and political awareness makes Aman stand out from the masses.
Complete with street bangers and introspective tracks "The Awakening", Aman's self-produced, self-written debut album is one of the most well-rounded projects to hit the streets. You've heard the buzz, now hear the music... and witness a movement
You can preview 4 of our tracks on our website (www.amansmusic.com).
AMAN's been busy as usual, here's the latest on the duo...
Word is AMANS Music is featured in the upcomg movie "Raising Helen" starring Kate Hudson. The film is set to hit theatres on May 28th
One of London's hottest radio stations has Aman's "All Around the World" on regular rotation! Listen online at http://www.ClubAsiaOnline.com. If you're in the UK make sure to request the song and let the DJ's know what you think about Aman!
Cyphers and stages have been rocked in D.C. and Richmond, VA... Chicago, Florida, Detroit, and Boston are around the corner so stay tuned!
Good news for all the Napoleon fans, Johnny J hired a guy from Interscope Records that did marketing and promotions for 50 Cent to also promote Napoleon's album when it hits the streets! This is big yall... also The Game's manager called Napoleon's cell phone while we were in studio about getting The Game (newest rapper on Dr. Dre's Aftermath) on Napoleon's album so they're trying to work that out too.
What's in the near future?
New flash-based website! It will feature exclusive downloads including Aman's new music video for "All Around the World" as well as unreleased intrumentals produced by Siege and exclusive unreleased audio from Aman and Napoleon!
Napoleon's first solo effort since he left the Outlawz "Scriptures From a Thugs Point of View" will be released worldwide this summer! His music video will be featured on MTV/BET/etc. and his single will be circulating on all major radio stations!
