United Through Music(U.T.M)was founded by Envy, producer
from South Africa and Prince Michael G. Vincent(Prinxmikul), emcee from
Brooklyn New York who both met online and fell in love with each other's work and
decided to hook up a collabo in late 2010. The first song was released online
in early 2011 and caused a lot of buzz on social networks. Following that the
duo thought they should work on a project where they get different indie
artists/producers from all over the world to do a collaboration album, which
will be released online. Only a few producers/artist bought into that idea, one
of them being Vez Scenestar, a local
producer whom Envy has known for some time after meeting via the “beat tape inc tapes”. Vez Scenestar was interested and was a fan of U.T.M ‘s work so he contributed a beat, which
turned into a song after Prinxmikul laced on it (Gun For Money). Following the success they decided to do an album with
Prinxmikul as just two producers from
South Africa and an emcee from New York and it will be called “Brooklyn Meets
Africa”. This is history in the making, never in the history of SA hip-hop have
South African producers produced an entire album for an artist from the US. The
album will be released sometime this year, it’s the first Vol. because they
have been working so much that they have enough songs for 3 albums and they are
still working on more, but the first volume's done!!
