Fresh
Air is more than just a hip hop group. Fresh
Air is a way of being, a mind state. Fresh Air
calls on the listener to expand the realm of
their thinking, to take action to be a positive
force for society and the world. Comprised of
two young men who grew up exposed to vastly
different parts of America they have both found
hip hop as a common, bonding force. Khalil emcee
and producer, and DJ Frank(E) look to enlighten
people with their collective perspective and
experiences.
Ajamu Khalil Ekulona, who goes simply by, KHALIL,
is the lead Emcee for Fresh Air, producing beats
and rhymes. For the past 5 years he has been
a teacher for emotionally disturbed, at-risk
teenagers in southern California. He believes
that the group is building the "bridge"
so that all people on both sides of hip hop,
America, and the world may find their common
bond and realize that no matter how different
we may seem to each other we still breathe.
Frank E. Aceves, also known as DJ FRANK(E) is
the DJ of the Fresh Air crew. He loves music,
loves hip-hop, and through his knowledge and
skills on the turntables will further enhance
Fresh Air's sound. Now in his tenth year as
a DJ, when FRANK(E) touches the turntables,
not only will you hear music with timeless qualities,
but you will feel his passion and love for the
sounds, beats, and instrumentation through his
programming, cuts, doubles, and overall presentation.
The group is building the "bridge"
so that all people on both sides of hip hop,
America, and
the world may find their common bond and realize
that no matter how different we may seem to
each other we still breathe.
