Who, Being Loved, is Poor?
ΤΝΤ:

Αφήνω το μυαλό μου ελεύθερο για να πετάξει,
Άλλες εικόνες να δει - σ' άλλα κρεβάτια να πλαγιάσει,
Κι είν΄ η ζωή μου λεωφορείο που δεν κάνει στάση,
Γιατί ο επιβάτης να πατήσει stop έχει ξεχάσει,
Περιπλανιέμαι ως το L.A. της California αναζητώντας ενέσεις αγνής πραγματικότητας,
Με δυο πεντάρες στην τσέπη και μια γεμάτη καρδιά,
Χωρίς πεντάρες πας - χωρίς καρδιά - πουθενά,
Σου αποκαλύπτω πως,
Ένιωθα φτωχός μα ποιος,
Μπορεί να 'ναι - αν αγαπήθηκε μια φορά έστω,
Κι ευτυχώς: έχω φίλους που 'χουν αγάπη αρκετή,
Ώστε να δύσκολα να μη σωριαστώ σαν άδειο σακί,
Γιατί οι μόνοι - που μένουν όταν το ποτό τελειώνει,
Και σε φουρτούνες δε θα γίνουνε ποτέ καπνός,
Οι μόνοι - που μαζί τους ο χρόνος παγώνει,
Λέγονται φίλοι και σε σκέφτονται διαρκώς.

SXO:

Είμαι σίγουρα ευλογημένος που γνώρισ' αγάπη,
Γι' αυτό στις εκλογές έριξα μια καρδιά στην κάλπη,
Απ' το Αιγάλεω city μέχρι και το L.A,
Βρήκα ανθρώπους με κότσια που η ψυχή τους το λέει,
Τι να σου κάνουν τ' αμάξια αν είσαι ακρωτηριασμένος;
Σαν το Μίδα μάγκα μου είσαι καταραμένος, 
Δε θέλω όταν σ' αγγίζω να σε κάνω χρυσό,
Θέλω όταν σ' αγγίζω να 'χω κοντά μου έναν αδερφό,
Dilated Peoples - Rationalistas σ' όλη τη γη,
Όπου τους χρειαστώ - οι ανθρώποι μου είναι σίγουρα εκεί,
Κι αυτό αρκεί - είν' η πιο καλή πιστωτική,
Αφού αυτό με θρέφει και σε φόρμα με διατηρεί,
Κι αν κρίνω απ' τη σκηνή: είμαι σίγουρα σε φόρμα,
Αποφασισμένος να γράφω για χρόνια ακόμα,
Γιατί στην τελική αν πετάξουμε το πορτοφόλι,
Κάπου στο βάθος μάγκα μου είμαστε αδέρφια όλοι.

Rakaa:

I've seen hard cash - platinum - diamonds and gold,
All in - you gotta know when to fold,
If they go will you be left out in the cold,
Or see the value of friends and family you hold,
Rakaa's like TNT - I' m prone to explode,
To diffuse the bomb - only a few know the code,
To get where I'm at - only a few know the road,
One of a kind - they made my crew then broke the mold,
I'm rich - regardless of my bank account,
No matter what my portfolio is talking about,
Accountants all stressed out because I'm not,
They don't know how to measure the success I got,
But I know: it's all love so I shine - I glow,
Real wealth is this: army here when I fight foes,
If I get the signal from one of mine - I go,
And if I send a signal all of LA might show.

Greek rhythm rustler Chop Juggler has dropped his debut album – titled More Is Less – to follow up the well-received Diggasmic EP on Cult Classic Records. Released on the prolific Cold Busted label, More Is Less collects eleven top notch beat-heavy jams from the young producer, now in his early twenties but involved in music making since the beginning of his teens. His artist name is apt, as Chop Juggler is adept at taking loops and samples and melding, twisting, and – yes – chopping them into intricate compositions. “Amethyst” provides convincing evidence; seemingly disparate sources are cut into sonic snatches, layered and bursting in and out of the mix to any beat-head’s delight. There’s also the more uptempo “Night Travel” which sounds just like that … if one is traveling by moonlight in a ’70s television crime drama. Slower, spacey moments like “Money Can’t Buy Time” and “Brave New World” showcase Chop Juggler’s depth, but with his ear for striking samples and tough hip hop beats still in full display. More Is Less follows through in its title’s statement by never overwhelming, but the album’s satisfying flow will indeed find the listener looking for more from this talented producer.

Real name Simon, born and raised in a west suburb of Athens Greece, Egaleo. Druma Loop was involved in music since the very first days of his life.

In 1999 he began producing music with an old cassette recorder. During the same year, he met SXO who had already started writing rhymes, and they formed the band ORTHOLOGISTES(RATIONALISTAS). In 2003 he made his own recording studio and after a while, two mc's and one producer(Zografos, TNT, Bayman) were added in the band.

In 2005, Druma Loop studied music engineering and music production and in the same year, he and his band took part in a school music contest with 200 participants. It has to be mentioned that Orthologistes was the only band selected to represent the hip hop culture. Untill now, he has given several live concerts all over Greece in festivals and underground theatres with great success.
He also took part in the one and only Greek documentary film about hip hop culture, directed by Nikos Skarentzos and produced by Top Cut, the Greek Film Center and ERT.

It can't be left unmentioned that in their last album, Druma Loop featured Rakaa of Dilated Peoples on a track entitled "Who, being loved, is poor?", which was another great step for Greek hip-hop to get developed.
