Rappers Missing Linx release new LP album 'Spaxe Camels'



The rappers known internationally as Missing Linx have released their latest full-length album, “Spaxe Camels.” The record contains 15 original Missing Linx tracks for an approximate total listening time of 75 minutes. In addition to the talents of Missing Linx, “Spaxe Camels” features performances by Scruffmouth the Scribe, Luss, Rude-Enemy, Tara Don, Nathaniel Larochette, Balam Santos, Dini, and Karl Acelin. It has been proudly published on the Nationless Mind Records independent music label. Varied, beat-driven, and pulsing with urban poetry, “Spaxe Camels” is a new flagship release for this creative hip-hop and spoken-word crew from Canada.

Missing Linx [often stylized 'Missing LinX'] are Just Jamaal, Prufrock, Cannon2x, and Cheko Salaam. They cite as main artistic influences Sun-Ra, The Pharcyde, Kendrick Lamar, Earth, Wind and Fire, and Tupac Shakur. As may be surmised, drawing from such a broadly varied selection lends a multifaceted character to their already kaleidoscopic style.

Nationless Mind Records comments on this: “By blending the density and meaningfulness of spoken word poetry with the raw energy, charisma and verbal dexterity typified by the best of hip-hop music, Missing Linx have opened up a trove of limitless creative potential and malleability.”

The troupe have also been lauded for their themes of social awareness and personal growth.

The group is celebrated not just for its contributions to the world’s spoken-word communities,” says NMR, “but its ability to take the social and political potency of hip-hop music and push it into authentically futuristic territory without dishonouring its past.”

Asked about the overall themes of their new album, Missing Linx write: “'SpaXe Camels' is a sonic psychedelic experience inviting the listener to question our concept of 'space' to include the mental, spiritual, metaphysical and unknown factors (hence the use of 'X,' pronounced 'shh'). Within this expansive universe, the camel is a symbol of resilience, compassion and the riding of 'spaXe.'”

Nationless Mind has described “Spaxe Camels” as “somehow finding a balance between four distinct voices” to create a universe “which carries many worlds within one world, an ancient, yet futuristic vision of the present that includes a supernatural but humbled version of what it means to be human.”

Spaxe Camels” by Missing Linx is available online worldwide from over 600 quality digital music retailers now. Get in early, art and hip-hop fans.
