Pherowshuz, Terry Tha Rapman and OD show why they are easily in anyone`s Top Ten Rappers list with carefully penned bars showing their wealth of experience and versatility.
“The fans have been asking for this for a while. It was just the right time for us to do this. We`ve been in the studio for a few months and the songs we`ve worked on are good. You can`t hide good music, we just have to let it out” says Terry Tha Rapman, winner of the Best Rap Single Headies 2010.
Pherowshuz who doubles as a producer on the B.A.N.S project says that the new single will set them apart from the competition. “We`ve been quiet for a while. The project we are about to push will show how unique we are. We`ve written the best rhymes for years. Now we want to show the whole world that we can make records and be totally diverse. We don`t want to be pigeon-holed” states Phero. Pherowshuz produced Terry Tha Rapman`s single ”˜Sample` in 2009.
“You`ve heard Maybach Music,YMCMB and G.O.O.D Music. You are now about to witness what B.A.N.S is going to do. It`s not a game anymore. ”˜Sexy Lady` is just a teaser; you might even call it a trailer. When you get the whole thing you will be amazed at what we`ve been doing” says OD who won the 2007 Next Rated Headies category.
The video for ”˜Sexy Lady` will be accompanied with a video. The video shoot will be accompanied by many viral videos before the release of B.A.N.S.
