Doomtree

Doomtree Doomtree is a collective of Minneapolis rappers, DJs, and producers. Their fierce family ties and DIY ethic have helped establish the group as one of the most powerful forces in underground hip hop. Members of Doomtree have worked and lived together since they were kids—sharing money, homes, colds, gear, and stages across the country. They've showcased at SXSW, toured annually with the Warped Tour, and earned enthusiastic reviews from Urb, Pitchfork, Okayplayer, and CMJ. The collective gained… Show more national attention for the intensity of its live show, and for its increasing musical range. The Doomtree catalog has already endeared the collective to fans of punk and indie rock, as well as rap purists. The anthems are victorious, the storysongs are full of dream and intrigue, and the bangers reset pacemakers. Doomtree's most recent self-titled album capitalized on the momentum that members built as solo artists. It held the #1 slot on the CMJ charts and caught some love on the iTunes and YouTube charts too. In the summer of 2009, emcees Cecil Otter, Dessa, Mike Mictlan, and Sims will be touring the West Coast, backed by DJ Paper Tiger and super-producer Lazerbeak.
