Alpha Pup Records Releases Acid Reign's New Album 'Time and Change' worldwide on August 8, 2006

Los Angeles, CA (ALPHA PUP RECORDS) - Alpha Pup Records proudly presents their first album release of the year, "Time & Change" by Acid Reign, one of the best kept secrets in the Los Angeles hip-hop scene. For many years, Acid Reign have been regular fixtures at the infamous Project Blowed open-mic workshop in South Central, which spawned other notable L.A. emcees such as Freestyle Fellowship, Aceyalone and Busdriver. Now they are stepping into the limelight with a masterpiece album entitled "Time & Change" executive produced by underground rap wunderkind Daddy Kev. The new album weighs in at seventeen delicious tracks and features an amazing cast of producers including Daddy Kev, Paris Zax, Omid and edIT. Guest vocalists include Abstract Rude, Pigeon John, Ellay Khule and Scarab (Living Legends). Scratches by D-Styles (of Invisibl Skratch Piklz fame) completes the all-star cast.

UKHH.com hails "Time & Change" a success: "Between clever word play, laid back rhymes, fast raps and tongue twisting metaphors, the two emcees show that over a decade on the L.A. underground has made them into worthy contenders in today's hip hop landscape".

Acid Reign has shared the stage with hip-hop luminaries such as Freestyle Fellowship, Hieroglyphics, Living Legends, Busdriver, Daedelus and Buck 65. In conjunction with their new record release, Acid Reign will be doing a series of in-store appearances at music stores throughout Southern California and plan to tour this Fall.

"Time & Change" will be available in music stores worldwide on August 8, 2006, including iTunes and other fine digital music retailers.
