Athletic Mic League

The six MCs that define Ann Arbor, MI’s Athletic Mic League met one another through senior high school and basketball courts. Originally rhyming for recreational reasons, Tres Designs, 14K, Buff, Essential, Structure, and Grand Cee begun to concentrate even more on rap being a profession as individuals around them began to recognize the abilities these were developing. Making use of makeshift studios in dorm areas and basements, they occupied themselves with composing and recording monitors. In the summertime of 1999, they produced a re-locate to NJ to utilize an entertainment attorney who took see of these after hearing a demonstration. While surviving in the East, they toured, documented, promoted, and finished up stockpiling more than enough tracks to create two albums. Then they came back to Ann Arbor to drop the Thrill of Success…The Agony of Beat LP.
