Whereas some rappers call in help from a roster of label producers and MCs, local hip-hop collective Dyme Def contains the whole package. They’ve got three (count ‘em, three) unique and engaging MCs in S.E.V., Fearce Villan, and Brainstorm, and a library of singularly creative beats from Bean One. Their lyrical interplay and palpable chemistry hearkens back to the golden age of hip hop where it was all about two MCs and a DJ, and although Dyme Def is rooted in the classics, Bean One’s forward-thinking production keeps their sound fresh. Dyme Def is opening up for Snoop Dogg at the Showbox SoDo on July 22nd, but if you can’t make it, experience the next best thing by watching video of their energetic in-studio performance from last November below and keep an eye on their website and Twitter for updates on future shows.
