CukoosNest Is: Gig One- "We rock bottom for the high bottom dwellers, sticky finger bank tellers, homeless Helen Kellers..." Knuckles- "Will there ever be peace on the streets? Will the violence cease?" Izreal- "It's not my bullets, it's my brain that you fear." Don Juan Bo'Nez- "In this rap game I can't fall, but to get in I had to crawl." ISITE- "Hiphop's promotin' life; support a family and wife." Space- No quote available. His music speaks for itself. Rock Bottom- A style of Hiphop music developed by CukoosNest. Rock Bottom is what lies beneath the undaground. It symbolizes the very bottom, but where the highest heights are still attainable. The Official CukooBiography: CukoosNest was founded in 1997 in Gig One's garage. Gig had become frustrated with his job as a Liberace impersonator and decied to restart his career in another direction. ISITE was employed at the Goodwill where Gig used to buy costume jewelry for his Liberace act. It was ISITE who offered to build all the necessary studio equipment for CukoosNest out of spare elctronic parts and broken pagers. Space's origin is unknown. He just showed up with a crate of Wayne Newton records. Don Juan Bo'Nez knew Gig One from AA meetings. Gig told him about CukoosNest. Both have been clean and sober for 732 days. Izreal, a former Olympian in "Hide and Go Get It," had caught a sexual harassment case and was forced to flee his native Nigeria, and later Alabama. He landed in Los Angeles and met Bo'Nez at the famous Club Barebacks. This establishment is a local landmark and popular hang out for retired exotic dancers. At the time, Knuckles was managing two Bareback dancers, as well as selling fish tacos at the bar. Prior to his business ventures at Club Barebacks, Knuckles was a star dodgeball payer at UCLA (that's the University of Crenshaw, Left on Artesia). He had lost his scholarship for alleged involvement in a point shaving scandal. He was later cleared of all charges. Don Juan Bo'Nez, Izreal and Knuckles cliqued up when immigration raided Club Barebacks and detained them. They were deported to Egypt. As fate would have it, these three aspiring emcees hitchhiked a ride from Egypt to CukoosNest. It was Space who offered them a lift in his aircraft, the Junkie 420. The Junkie 420 was built by ISITE out of aluminum foil recycled from empty Tecate cans, as well as sequins from Gig One's old Liberace outfits. Thus, CukoosNest was born and the Rock Bottom style was created. The rest as they say...is CukooHistory. Check out the artist's website: http://www.cukoosnest.com Track List: 1. Rock Bottom 2.
