(July 12, 2007 ) Boston, MA
CommonWealth Records is proud to announce the eagerly-anticipated release of "Animated Stagnation", a new album from Rhode Island's own Ams Uno of ClokWorx which will hit the stores & internet on September 18, 2007 and will be distributed worldwide by independent hip-hop distribution powerhouse; Amalgam Entertainment and exclusively on-line at AmalgamDigital.com.
Speaking out against what he sees in hip-hop, politics & religion, Ams Uno steps forth as a self-proclaimed B-Boy & prophet of hip-hop, much as KRS-One had done several years before. Ams Uno, one third of the Woonsocket, Rhode Island hip-hop group ClokWorx and childhood friend of Sage Francis first appeared on the underground scene with their 1999 debut 12" release " Mental Flux b/w Time In This Career/World Of Truth" which earned them a spot on the 1999 Lyricist lounge tour, their 2001 sophomore 12"- " Preservative b/w Who's That/Robots"
Now with successful LP, EP & tw o12" singles under his belt, Ams Uno steps forth with his full length debut "Animated Stagnation (The Day Of Devotion)" which features the singles/videos "They Murk You" , "My Own Prison" & "Eighty Ate Emcees". Each track brings you into the two part mind of Ams Uno, one of raw B-boy, the other that of a lyrical perspective. "Animated Stagnation features production from, Ams Uno, DJ Orator aka The G.M.O, Missing Elements, The 6th Persona, Esh and guest appearances by Cas Uno, Missing Elements, Roman Rok, The G.M.O.& more.
"Animated Stagnation (The Day Of Devotion)" has been making a buzz for quite some time and is eagerly anticipated by his fan base and fans of the underground brand of RI hip-hop.
Ams Uno comments, "I put the last three years into this album and I have a lot to say and I decided to ride with CommonWealth Records again because I got a lot of shit to do and say, and I know CommonWealth won't hold me back or censor my music plus the entire company will push the CD to the maximum because they truly love and respect my music. I am very excited about the whole thing".
"They Murk You" will be the first National radio single/video that will hit the airwaves & streets mid August.
