The
Background:
Keelay & Zaire are a bi-coastal team that operates with only one
concrete rule; creating music with unlimited range. Complementing each other's
styles with precision, Kee & Zee work as a sole production machine that spawns
gritty classic hip-hop, soulful R&B, and any other medium that requires an exclusive
sound from the team. With Keelay out west in San Francisco, and Zaire in the
east, holding it down in Virginia, the two have almost unlimited resources from
which to draw talent and inspiration. In their debut LP Ridin High,
the pair's versatility takes center stage, backed up by a talented cast of emcees
and singers including Phonte of Little Brother, Supastition,
Blu, Cali Agents, Darien Brockington, Tash of Tha Liks, Saafir, Fortilive, The
Park, Emilio Rojas, Surreal ,Slo-Mo, Mario Dones, The A.V.E., J.Fish, Jony Fraze,
Whooligan, and Tiffany Paige. Keelay & Zaire's Ridin
High will be released on March 10th by MYX Music Label.
