"Dropbombz.com - Tell a friend and you're mom's." Thas is the tagline on the main page of DropBombz website. It's not just a line however, they mean it. Site moderator Ricky Raw encourages everyone he can to check it out, wheter it be people he meets on the street or people he finds online. He/they want the world to see what DropBombz has to offer, and they have plenty.
The DropBombz web site, entirely designed by Ron "Elemental Emcee" Cagle, contains many different elements of the DropBombz collective. The collective consists of 7 MC's - Elemental Emcee, CL (Cypher Linguistics) Ricky Raw, Sighphur One, Kris Kringle, KEL, Rekluse, and 5 DJ's - Dig, Scizza Hands, Ghetto D, Rawstead One, and Sirthinkalot. In different combinations these guys make up the groups under the DBDC umbrella The Agorophobiks, Theory of Mind and EL + CL.
On this site you'll find several FREE mp3's both by the group as a whole and solo tracks + links to other great hip hop and drum n' bass websites. They also offer CD's for sale from the Dropbombz collective, together and solo efforts, a general discussion forum, an events forum, and contact and booking info.
Elemental say's he has bigger plans for the site and the collective as a whole. He already has a CD out with CL and is working on his solo release. THe entire group is working on a release together. Theory of Mind is in the studio now perfecting their album, which Ricky Raw says has the hottest beats he's ever made. KEL is putting the finshing touches on his own solo project, and CL plans for his to be completed in about a yer.
CL stated he wants their music to "encourage intelligence and positive thinking" Their Website reflects this as well as UNITY in the Atlanta hip hop scene. That was a big part in starting the Dropbombz forum which gives such a great outlet to learn and share knowledge of hip hop without judgement. - Neo Magizine

Bio
“No one is safe...” is the phrase that came to define Elemental Emcee coming up through the underground Hip Hop battle scene in Atlanta GA. Despite winning numerous battles and amassing the highest number of consecutive wins at the World Famous Mic Club, aspirations of social and political change are what drive this emcee to hone his craft as master of ceremony.
Elemental is on the pavement thinking about the government, encouraging you to be your own hero, seek humanity before profit, put the music first, and respect Hip Hop or be prepared to battle like a real emcee warrior. A musician since the age of 13, Elemental produces the majority of his own beats in his home studio. With an unmistakable Hip Hop sound you can hear the influence of Sonic Youth, Ministry, early Punk, Dub, Reggae, and 60’s protest music meshed with the golden age sound of Hip Hop.
As a result of his talent, hard work, and passion Elemental earned an opening slot on rap pioneer KRS-ONE’s 2003 fall tour. Not one to rest, Elemental along with Dropbombz label mates Ricky Raw and Cypher Linguistics released the East to West CD independently on their own label in 2004, and did a summer tour with over 22 shows in 24 days over 9 states.
Elemental Emcee delivers articulate punch lines that attack the musical and political status quo over progressive Hip Hop beats. Staying true to the culture by always performing with a DJ, Elemental turns events into a modern day Latin Quarters, reminding the listener of the power of change, and bringing back the Hip Hop mantra of peace, love, unity, and have fun.
