RA Scion of Common Market in Seattle Times
Photo: Tone
Check out the write-up on Common Market's RA Scion in today's Seattle Times. Common Market has an album release party and show at Neumos this Thursday at 8pm backed by the Total Experience Gospel Choir, Thee Emergency, and Feral Children. Click here to read the full article.
"The labor [on the tobacco field] serves as a metaphor for the work that needs to be done in the community," said Abeo. "Community organizations are the crops and the seeds. You can't plant seeds and leave it. It's a long process. You have to stay active in the community to reap the harvest."
The name Common Market also comes from humble roots, taken from a corner mom-and-pop store that used to be on Capitol Hill, called the European Common Market.
"Common means 'of the people,' " said Abeo. "And we compete in a marketplace."

Blue Scholars on Format Magazine
The Blue Scholars are featured in Format Magazine. Tone, a photographer, was flown out to kick it with BS and the Massline crew over a two day period. Click here for the article and to view the photos, press here.
Geo and I talked about the “conscious” rap thing and I asked him if he felt this was misleading. He replied “sometimes”. See, Geo is also a battle MCEE. In fact, that’s how he started, but he admits that working with Sabzi (Producer/DJ for both Common Market and Blue Scholars) has brought out another side of him. Sabzi’s music is heavily melodic with big boom bap drums and by Hip Hop standards, very complex arrangements. He has beat the likes of Marco Polo in beat battles and after listening to the newest unreleased Common Market CD I fully understand why. No wonder he inspires the cats he works with to soar, he is on a whole nother’ level himself.
