RECORDING "SPADER WEAR" WITH THE REGIMENT


THE REGIMENT

Meet the duo O.S.I. and IseQold of Detroit hip hop outfit The Regiment. These two dropped the mixtape "Basic Training" a few months ago consisting of 6 tracks proving that the flavour of hip hop continues to expand. This is the reason Spader Clothing chose the duo to record the theme song "Spader Wear". If you haven't heard it yet, get ready to start thrashing it on your I-pods.

YOUNG MURPH



What happens when you mix a gospel singer with a world champion boxer? Not only do you create one heck of a Spader, but a gifted singer/rapper known as Young Murph.

Hailing from East Oakland, California, Young Murph gained his vocal range from his mother, fight from his father and swagger from growing up in the notorious streets of Oakland. The Spader team and the rest of Australia were lucky enough to be dazzled by his live show, style, vibrant personality and love for kangaroos in January of 08 when he hit our shores. Keep an eye out for Young Murph’s debut album “4 The Record” that is produced by Cambo, in stores 09.



Young Murph:

YOOOOOO ! To all my Spader's out there, yes.... It's finally time for everyone to know. You can now wear clothing that directly reflects how you view yourself, and give others a good idea of how they should view you as well.

I go by the name of Young Murph and I am a true Spader – A rapper/singer who is known to be a trend setter in the fashion and music fields. Being a Spader consists of these great characteristics and more. My good friends at Spader Clothing asked me if I would personally give this blog an account on the lifestyle of one of East Oakland's finest Spaders. During this time I look forward to letting you in on some of the activities and movements that are made by a young Spader, who is thrust into the crazy music and entertainment industry.

So be on point, keep yourself updated, stay in touch, and keep it Spader

2AM CLUB



2AM CLUB

The Spader team has been a big fan of 2AM Club's music since 2006 and is excited that lead singer Marc Griffin will bring you exclusive blogs, pictures and videos from the band on a regular basis.

This five piece group consisting of Marc (vocals), Matt (guitar), Tyler (vocals), Sauce (bass), Dave (keys) have been rocking shows from California to New York with their unique sound of hip hop, soul, rock and pop.



To give some history on the 2AM Club, Marc takes us back to North Hollywood in 2006 where it all began for these Spaders.

Marc reflects:

The house where it all started is not really a house, I mean.... it was home, but six guys sleeping on makeshift beds in a sea of empty 40's and spliff roaches hardly qualifies as a House....it was base camp. It was starting out in one of the most gruelling, toiling, smog infested wastelands on earth - Los Angeles. We were in North Hollywood, the piercing florescent light of a used car lot illuminated the apartment at all hours of the night....we didn't sleep.

Everyone around us knew us for our music, it was infectious because it was honest. Matt was playing his guitar, I was singing, Pureric was drumming (on something), Nii was on shakers and bongos, and DJ Rush was nodding his head and taking pictures, that was us.....The Transfer.
We knew that as long as we played, good things would happen.......we were right.



The Transfer is now the 2AM CLUB, and LA is now NYC.... and the dream...........is becoming a reality. This blog will be keeping you all updated on my travels and adventures with 2AM.

$XO Marc Griffin
