Walk With The Devil After paying dues for many years, Slaine is steadily becoming one of the biggest up and coming independent Hip Hop artists in the game. He is part of the supergroup La Coka Nostra along with all three original House of Pain members, and former Non Phixion frontman Ill Bill. The group has a highly anticipated album coming out in July which features guest spots from Snoop Dogg, Cypress Hill, Bun B, Immortal Technique and The Alchemist among others. Slaine has toured across the country twice this year as the main support for indie giants Tech N9ne and The Kotton Mouth Kingz, and he will be with La Coka Nostra on The Rock The Bells Tour this summer. In 2007, Slaine played a supporting role in the movie “Gone Baby Gone” which was directed by Ben Affleck and starred Casey Affleck, Morgan Freeman, and Ed Harris. Slaine also had two songs on the soundtrack. It is clear that Slaine has a growing fan base both in the US and internationally and a bright future, all of which began with his first street CD The White Man is the Devil Volume 1, which has sold 12,000 copies without distribution since being pressed up as a slimline CD in 2005. This recording is considered a classic in his native Boston as it chronicles addiction, racism, crime, and hopelessness in the unique city with a distinct and powerful voice, accent and style that would later propel him to a larger stage. Now available for retail for the first time, Leedz Edutainment is proud to present the official release of Slaine’s The White Man is The Devil Volume 1.

Lateb Amadeus the Stampede is an unstoppable force in Hip Hop. Quoted as being “one of the craziest lyricists in rap”, he strangles hardcore rhythms with a fury of insanity in his rhymes. In stalking the streets of Boston, Amadeus The Stampede has solidified himself as one of the best up and coming MCs in the Rap world. While battling schizophrenia for the past six years, the Stampede has laid a foundation for a promising career in music. With hundreds of shows under his belt and a lengthy catalogue of exceptional original music, the madman shows no signs of slowing down. House of Broken Mirrors is his best work to date under the direction of Leedz Edutainment. According to Leedz “It’s a concept album that takes you on a journey into his mind through stages of battling mental illness, drug abuse, violence, in addition to maintaining relationships with his friends and family while trying to stay alive in the streets of Boston. He’s pushing boundaries with his musical content through life experiences.” The album features collaborations with Sean Price of Heltah Skeltah, Slaine, Reef The Lost Cauze, Reks, Rite Hook, and J The S, along with heavyweight production from Matty Trump, Guns N Butter, J.Ferra and many more.
