About Inflow:
Boasting resounding lyrics, supreme originality and an unforgettable sound, Up-and Coming Hip Hop group Inflowential is definitely worth noting. Taking form in the spring of 2003 at NC State University, the group is composed of 2 MC's, a Bassist, a Guitarist, and a extraordinary vocal percussionist in lieu of a drummer: Tab-One, Charlie Smarts, Bender, Kyle, and A-did, respectively. Even though it is hard to believe, all of the percussion parts are done by A-did vocally through a mic. They don't use a drum machine or a looped beat of any kind.
Ever-growing in popularity, Inflowential's shows never fail to rock the crowd and leave them craving more. Representing real Hip Hop--especially that of NC to the fullest, Inflowential has a sound like nothing they or anyone else have heard before, and cites influences such as The Roots, A Tribe Called Quest, Slum Village, Little Brother, and Blackstar.
Having released the Inflow EP (Evolutionary Process) in early 2006, and The Exciting Adventures Mixtape in summer 2007.... Inflowential is one of the foremost live acts in NC and taking over the nation. Check out their live show and see why they are the current "Best Live Hip Hop Act in NC". Inflowential is currently working on their first full length album slated for an early '08 release.
