Hip hop pioneers, ANTI-POP CONSORTIUM, return with their first album in six years on BIG DADA. Entitled 'Fluorescent Black', the album reunites legendary emcees Beans, M. Sayyid, Earl Blaize, and High Priest in a startling display of lyrical dexterity and sonic experimentation. Initially taking the game by surprise with their acclaimed 2000 debut, 'Tragic Epilogue', Anti-Pop Consortium quickly made a name for themselves - alongside contemporaries EL-P, CANNIBAL OX, AESOP ROCK, BUCK 65, and SOLE - as some of the brightest stars in the burgeoning indie hip-hop scene. With 'Shopping Carts Crashing' (2000) and 'Arrhythmia' (2002 on WARP), they cemented their status as the genre's premiere boundary pushers. Now on Big Dada, 'Fluorescent Black' represents the group's best work yet - a seventeen track masterpiece that moves through moods, concepts, beats and rhymes with mind-bending ease.
