EDULUTION: The Education Revolution Album

The EDULUTION album is Apollo's premier hip-hop album. This release is a blueprint for future projects and will always be returned to for guidance and inspiration. The goal of this album was to present an  official first release that was designed to be of historical worth (rather than just popular) and make the project flow in a direction that follows the focus of Lyceum Recordz.



I'm not above making a lot of money from my music, and indeed that is the goal, but I wanted this album to be a reminder to myself, my fans, and everyone else why I'm really in hip-hop. And what better way to show that then dedicating my first album to the ideals of Lyceum Recordz (i.e. peace, love, and unity through truth).

The goal of my musical pursuit is to write book(s) about non-fiction social problems and use my hip-hop to popularize the findings and explain my concerns.  For this first album, I did it backwards. The Edulution Album now has an entire blog dedicated to it, and you can find a post for every song and act. [I also did this because the subjects I rap about are (popular) history, but no one knows history (period) so I made the blog as another medium of information so that people could know what I'm talking about and understand it's importance.]

If you haven't, you should take a minute to read Money Talks: Support Lyceum Recordz. You can purchase a digital copy of the Album on iTunes ($10), Amazon mp3 ($8), and BandCamp ($4). Even the purchase of one song on iTunes (.99), Amazon (.89), or BandCamp (variable, email address/free to .89) helps! Your monetary contribution is much needed and greatly appreciated!
