    AGAINST THE GRAIN is Little Rock Arkansas' best new rap group. Their debut CD, "OPERATION TAKEOVER," is their calling card and their mission.

    As the group's name implies, they're taking music in a different direction. Where some emcees still rap the about their alleged 20-inch rims over sampled loops, AGAINST THE GRAIN strikes instantly like a lyrical laser-beam.

    Against The Grain's sound is "sophisticated southern flavor," like Trick Daddy meets Quincy Jones. It makes for some spicy music with rap, raggea, r&b, rock n' roll, and funk all melded together into the best tasting gumbo you've ever heard. The secret? It's all in the sauce, "Arkan-sauce," that is. It's high-energy, hook-laden rap music for people who don't like anything weak or fake. There are no jacked beats on this CD whatsoever. It's all homemade in the beat kitchen.

    So enjoy! Compliments of ARKANSAS' ONLY MOB LABEL, AGAINST THE THE GRAIN!

    "We're in it for what it is!"

    Special thanks Scott Bejda and MURDERDOG MAGAZINE for the fantastic review in the July 2003 edition. "Against The Grain came tight and they cover all aspects of the game from mellow type Too Short type shit to the raw killa shit. -- 4 1/2 NUTS!"
