Mushroom Cloud will be cataclysmic. Its very name defines impact. It describes the events that forever changed the lives of these three individuals. With their music, Elevated aims to open your minds eye with a sound that resonates on a higher state of consciousness. It is rebellion. It is revolution. It represents the angels and demons of their past. The get high. The get money. The glorification of the hustle. The allure. The love. The hate. The escape. The despair. The addiction. The realization of self destruction and the deterioration of the lives around them. The seeking. The soul searching. The reflection and introspection. This album is about finding purpose. It's about chasing dreams.

Skrew, Expo, and Gravity have been building this weapon of mass production for the past 4 years. Although each member is an artist in their own right, they came together to create Elevated Records' debut album. Expo (Producer/MC) produced 14 of the 19 tracks on Mushroom Cloud. He has been featured on college radio stations across the US, Philly's 100.3 The Beat, and dozens of newspaper articles in the NJ and PA area. In 2008 Expo's beats caught the ear of Miskeen Originals and was picked up as their in-house producer for current and upcoming projects. Skrewtape (MC/Director) has been a staple in the NJ underground scene and has worked with artists such as Copywrite, Young Zee & Pacewon from the Outsidaz, and El de Sensai from the Artifacts. In 2008, DJ Gravity (DJ/Producer) spun at Czech Republic's HipHop Kemp, one of the biggest hip-hop festivals in the world. This past year he was Cymarshall Law's touring DJ for 40+ US shows. Together the Elevated crew has rocked crowds along side of hip-hop's elite.  Mushroom Cloud is merely the beginning, the launch pad, and the blueprint of the classic material that you will continue to see from Elevated's artists.

Now that samples have been smuggled across the airwaves, and the frequencies have been tweaked to perfection, we invite you to witness the destruction that is: 'Mushroom Cloud'. So sit back, turn up that newly-orchestrated boom-bap, and tune into Elevated: The Music. The Movement. The Mindstate.
