San Diego, CA. (Top40 Charts/ Shulaced Entertainment) - Shulaced Entertainment artists and San Diego's hottest rap twosome, Dago Braves, announce the release their second album KUMEYAAY COOL GUYZ (Shulaced Entertainment / City Hall) bringing rhymes straight from the Sycuan Reservation to the world. Dago Braves' songs hit every topic of the American life from every aspect. Being both African American and Native American, the duo express the struggles and advantages of being born between races. The music of Dago Braves reflect their life experiences by fusing the original native rhythms of the Kumeyaay Band of Sycuan Indians with the distinct hip hop beats of the San
Diego rap scene.
The songs on KUMEYAAY COOL GUYZ hit on every part of cousins Terence 'Poodeezy' Brown and Mike 'Odoe' Allen, who make up Dago Braves, lives. Tracks like FLY CASINO and IMA BRAVE give Dago Braves' perspective on the pride of the Tribe's success and the celebrity of Casino life amidst the San Diego community. 'Everyone has their hustle,' says Terence 'Poodeezy' Brown, one half of Dago Braves, 'the casino is our hustle. It's what's bringing the tribal family back together. Until we had the casino the tribal family was spread in every direction just trying to get by. Now we're together and we're doing alright.' Then, songs like TOO SOON get more personal, talking about the trials and tribulations of new relationships and the need to take a step back.
Dago Braves recently won the Native American Music Award for Best Rap Hip Hop Recording for their debut album NATIVE AMERICAN HUSTLE, which was released in 2007. 'Having the respect of our community means more to us than anything. It is a huge honor for us and we're so thankful for the acknowledgement,' says Mike 'Odeo' Allen.
Dago Braves worked with local producers including Da Batkave, Grimmie Recs, Steve Vicious and Dave Moss on NATIVE AMERICAN HUSTLE. Podeezy and Odoe want to continue to create music to represent San Diego and the Sycuan proudly, which is why they have again collaborated with San Diego's top talent, including Da Batkave, DJ Rek, J. Elliot Ness and Haze Banger, for KUMEYAAY COOL GUYZ.
Dago Braves are a tight knit and enterprising duo, creating their music family and record label with Sycuan Reservation-based Shulaced Entertainment. Shulaced Entertainment is developing several artists from within and around the Sycuan Reservation and the San Diego area, bringing life and an international voice to their artists' unique perspectives.
