2xLP - 2018 - IteM Records / Taha Records 

For those who don't already know the Chicago based group named Tha Chamba, the group consisted of Chainsaw, Riot 1 & Toxic, and their classic debut album " Makin' Illa Noize" was released in 1995 on Coroner Records. 

"Chainsaw and Riot 1 were from the low end of Chi. They met up as shorties in the jetzz. As Time passed they met an M.C from the wild west side of Chi that had been battling niggazz with his skills for damn near ten years as a kid. This nigga with the slimbuild was Toxic, (Chemical B.). "I met up with Chain and Riot and we hooked up in about 88-n-shit. We started making dope shit, doing shows n-shit, knowhatimsayin' and nassha it started." Toxic prides himself off being a lyrically superb M.C. and hates copy-cat M.Cs, "I love originality in my shit. Chain, Riot and myself work hard at this shit, and we started our own thing that's paying off. Ain't no doubt in my dome that we gone keep it real as hell."

'Hoodthang' is the first single off the debut album 'Making Illanoize'. This shit is ten cutzz dEePaSSfUcK!!!

Toxic serves shit up a storm on the trax "Sayalilsumthin & The Essence", sure to follow 'Hoodthang'. To add insult to the injury of Sucka-ass MCs, a guest appearance by female MC Divine cripples niggazz and leaves ya stunned by skill on the cut 'Illsane Illusion'. This shit is enuff to make any nigga think twice times a million about getting on with these supurb M.Cs and phatt-azz trax laid down by the 2PS (purpose to become Large).

Chainsaw, Riot 1 and Toxic, Makin Illa Noise for the real B-Boys in ILL and abroad letting niggazz know up front ................. " - Coroner Records - '95 Press Sheet 

This is the exclusive vinyl release, available for Pre-Order on September 20th 2018 at 7PM (Brussels time). The album will also include Remixes and Bonus Beats which weren't on the original '95 CD album.

CHICAGO-BASED CORONER RECORDS ANNOUNCES NAT’L RELEASE OF THE FIRST SINGLE BY THA CHAMBA. For immediate release - March 29,1995 

"Seven years ago 'Hip-Hop' surged onto the musical arena at an accelerated speed and popularity, leaving Rap Music behind. It first surfaced in the urban community as a new form of music with an Attitude! Hip-Hop was a new way of 'rappin' with original strong, alluring beats, creating an 'in-your-face' culture that not only affected language but, also hair-styles and clothing. Hip-Hoppers permanently changed their 'street attire' to the big and loose fitting 'look', oversized jeans that fell to their waste sides, trademark baseball caps and, the latest foot gear.

In addition to these changes, were enormous numbers of Hip-Hop groups popping up everywhere. They quickly took over all the major cities club scenes. The mid-west also became saturated, however only one group rose to the top and stayed. They were three true individuals from Hightowen ILL-State (Chicago) known as Tha Chamba. With Hip-Hop as their religion, they combined their talents with their goal, to rid Chicago's urban sounds of fake 'rappin con artists' that were 'wannabe' M.C’s with mediocre lyrics and polluted concepts.

This threesome began hitting all local Chicago clubs, quickly crushing other groups on the mic, leaving their prey to fall by the wayside. Their message was simple, 'there is no room for immitators'. Tha Chamba set out to preserve Chicago for the sacred 'B-Boys' by sending chills to 'fake ass' pretenders. They stated Hip-Hop must remain in its original 'essence'.

Tha Chamba has been together since '88. They have also played host to many visiting Hip-Hop groups including opening up for hardcore Hip-Hoppers , Tupac Shakur and Apache. The group consist of Hip-Hop artists, CHAINSAW, RIOT1 & TOXIC. 

From South Chicago and one of the M.C’s of the group, Chainsaw, has been making strong beats since ’87. He says , he gives 'bonecrushin, no nonsense lyrics, delivered with  a flow that’ll sneak up on you'. He also states he 'fell in love with the rap scene right away and hopes to own a studio'. Riot 1, also representing from the South side of Chicago, is a former spray painting graffiti artist, and the brother on the tables working the beat. He says his goal is eventually to 'produce Hip-Hop music'. Toxic, representing the West side, says he looks  forward to the future of Hip-Hop. He says his interest are not only 'rockin the mic' but getting into the business side because, he is dedicated to profiling the 'hardcore' of the Hip-Hop culture. He says he will be 'makin music til he’s way into his fifties.'

HOODTHANG marks the first single off their debut album MAKIN’ ILLA NOIZE under the guidance of their producers at Coroner Records." - from Coroner Records Inc - Press Sheets
