"RBGeez MILLENNIUM MESSAGE"

Philadelphia's Rowdee Black Giants, or Triple Nickel5 as they're also known to their fans, are but yet another notch in the belt that makes the 215 one of the world's most fertile and undoubtedly most diverse Hip Hop scenes. - PhillyHipHop.com


"COME ONE, COME ALL"

Aside from having one of the phattest logos in the land, the RBGeez: Triple Nickel5 are quickly establishing themselves as one of the phattest Hip Hop bands in the Greater Philadelphia Region. Keep in mind the accomplishment that is in the capitol city of live Hip Hop instrumentation. But these emcees further exercise their range and diversity by manifesting alter ego identities that have spawned a series of mixtapes featuring the Triple Nickel5 lyricizing over banging production. The buzz over these brothers has been gaining momentum for a minute now and it's just about to bubble over to the next level. The majors are coming around sniffing with offers in hand.

"RBGeez USHER CHANGE"

Hip-hop music wears many faces, but one Philadelphia-based act intends to offer the genre a facelift on the house. The Rowdee Black Giants hip hop collective has slowly begun to garner accolades through intensive grassroots performances in Philadelphia and throughout the Mid-Atlantic region.

Their brand of hip hop demonstrates the forgotten realms of the artform. While emcees command the microphone over high quality production or live instrumentation via their 5 piece band. Triple Nicks take us back to the future of hip hop. Where lyricism and poetry haven't been forgotten.
