Moke and Tone are the two man hip-hop consortium consisting of the Cali-born, Bronx-bred Mokeout of Hardtimes Records and the Massachusetts-based Tone of The Problemaddicts (Mystika Music, LLC); ranked in 2009 as URB.com http://URB.com ‘s “Next 1000”.
Set for an April 12th release date, Shot Heard Round The World is Moke and Tone’s debut LP which delicately walks the divide between street and conscious rap, addressing a wide brush stroke of themes that range from the powers of good versus evil, overzealous emcees fighting for position, 911 conspiracy theories, and the call for alarm in this uncertain world. Produced extensively by Mystika Music’s in-house production crew Team Genius, Shot Heard Round The World also boasts production from Illmind (50 Cent, Eminem, Little Brother), J Clyde (Young Buck, Heltah Skeltah) and features precision turntablism courtesy of The Problemaddicts own DJ Theory. The LP also includes guest features such as Slaughterhouse’s Crooked I, Brooklyn Academy’s Mr. Metaphor, Catalyst and Vorheez (of The Problemaddicts).
