Artist description The BEST kept secret since one should have been told, The Shanks are a duo that have all the elements to be an industry favorite. Straight from Jacksonville, Florida, lyrics from a new breed of artists delivers what true hip hop heads need. The beat riding ability combined with raw methaphors and lyrics gives hip hop hope in the phrase "Save the Music". The two mcs have a plan to take the industry by surprise; bringing uncanny spittage and enough soul to make anyone regret passing them by. "The Shaw Shanks" was a name picked eight years ago because of the ability to know, "Blow us up and we got this game on LOCK!"
