Tune In To fuse On August 21, 2006 At 9:00 pm ET To Watch
The Premiere

New York, NY … (August 14, 2006) fuse, the nations only viewer-influenced, music television network announced today that Jurassic 5 will be performing tracks off of their newest album, Feedback, live on fuses 7th Avenue Drop on August 16. The performance will premiere on fuse on September 21 at 9pm ET.

The inventive tag-team rappers Chali 2na, Akil, Zaakir (aka Soup), Mark 7even, and DJ Nu-Mark evoke an old-school hip-hop vibe amongst listeners. However, the groups raw talent and irresistible charm allows them to perform outside of the mainstream hip-hop circuit, most notably at Lollapalooza, Warped Tour and Bonnaroo.

Jurassic 5's first single, Unified Rebelution was released by TVT Records in 1995. With that, Jurassic 5 truly started a musical revolution, as the group confidently claimed a position in the 1990s alternative hip-hop movement. The quintet quickly scored a fan base with their original, upbeat lyrics and tag-team delivery style. Each of the MCs finish off each others sentences, and bounce lyrics off one other in a stimulating, serenading fashion.

Most recently, Jurassic 5 released their fourth album, Feedback on July 25. Besides receiving hip hop radio play, the groups first single from the album titled Work it Out (featuring rock/folk artist Dave Matthews) was just added by alternative rock station KROQ in Los Angeles and the video is in heavy rotation on fuse.

Jurassic 5 will join a smashing line up of elite artists who have glorified the stage of fuses 7th Avenue Drop including The Strokes, Foo Fighters, All American Rejects, Unwritten Law, U2, Weezer, Fall Out Boy and Taking Back Sunday. 7th Avenue Drop is the only show where fans can tune in to see top artists perform tracks off their brand-spanking new album in addition to their previous hits on or around the week of release.
