NEW CD RELEASES FROM L MATIK AND GLOBAL SLATED FOR MARCH 2006

SOURCE NOT STATED IN THE POST

San Francisco Bay area label Familia Inc is set to make their initial mark on the hip hop community with the release of their premiere artist releases, both set for March 2006 street dates.

The first release will come from premiere artist, L Matik, with the release of his debut, "Still On The Block," to be released on March 14, 2006. "Still On The Block," was produced by Anthony "Ant" Banks and will contain the forthcoming radio single, "I'ma Stay Ghetto." L Matik has a rapping style all of his own, but occasionally there are comparisons to some of the greatest rap artists of all times. Possibly due to his aggressive, in your face lyrics such as on the track, "Task Force is Haulin," or even on the spiritual side of "Holy Raindrops," the resemblance is there to some people but to L Matik it's purely coincidental.

L Matik recruited one of the top pioneers of Bay Area Rap, Too $hort, to make a special appearance on the forthcoming single, "Weekend Hoe'z," which will be released soon. "Still On The Block," has 17 singles and not one weak link in the chain from start to finish creating one of the cleanest start to finish releases to come out in years. Familia's second release will follow two weeks later with the debut from the artist Global and his release, "Global Warning," set for a release date of March 28, 2006. "Global Warning" was produced by Heat Rocks and contains the future smash hit, "It Ain't Personal."

It is said by many bay area rap industrializes that Global is the hottest Bay Area prospect to come out in years with his upcoming singles, "It Ain't Personal," "Anytime," featuring Cozmo, and the new Bay Area Anthem, "Yadadamean." "This album is "pure fire," and the hottest ensemble to hit this side of the "globe" in years."
