The hip-hop duo known as House of Goon
have released their debut EP record, “Up in Smoke.” The album
contains five original House of Goon tracks for an approximate total
listening time of 20 minutes. It has been proudly published on the
Haas Attack Records independent music label without the direction of
the corporate music industry. Packed with beats, exceptionally well
written and sporting some of the best performances and studio
production in the independent scene today, “Up in Smoke” by House
of Goon is easily one of the best rap records of 2015 so far.
House of Goon are rappers Ace and I'm
S. They cite as main artistic influences such rappers as Wiz Khalifa,
Young Thug, Lil' Wayne, Drake, and Big Sean. Their own sound is razor
sharp, quick witted and lyrically focused, with lots of space in the
back beat and musical accompaniment so their lines and rhymes are
always clearly heard. This skillful, top-shelf combination of
qualities makes for a rap EP that is consistently good for repeat
plays and never gets tired.
House of Goon were signed to the Haas
Attack label late in 2014 and went to work on “Up in Smoke”
immediately. A handful of months later, and the album is a reality.
This work ethic is one of House of Goon's best attributes, as it
means fans have plenty of music coming to them from the duo over the
next few months, as well as exciting live shows in the Omaha area and
elsewhere.
Their official SoundCloud page
currently features three tracks available for listening, including
two tracks not on their EP: the booming homage, “Hailey,” and
popular debut single, “About It” [link provided below]. It also
showcases “Up in Smoke”'s opening track, “Howitzer,” which
has been receiving radio play on premier hip-hop stations such as
Power 106.9FM, Omaha and shaping up to be their most prominent single
to date.
House of Goon's Ace and I'm S connected
through a mutual love of rap music when they met at the Defense
Language Institute in 2010. Their daily R 'n' R consisted largely of
freestyle rapping, and it quickly became obvious that there could be
more to their pastime than mere fun. They remained in contact
throughout their military careers and reunited to form House of Goon
as soon as their military tours were complete. Their record label
picked them up soon after.
The “Up in Smoke” EP by House of
Goon from Haas Attack Records is available online worldwide. Rap fans
should definitely get in early.
