Muniklip, year old CEO of Single R Records, has the unique capability of producing a wide variety of music to suit almost any instrumental track he is presented with. He was born in Little Rock, Ar. His brand of entertaining, a combination of r&b, rap, & pop, has achieved great success online, especially on , and contains the right blend of entertainment and musicianship.
His love for rap music was developed at the age of while living in De Valls Bluff, Arkansas. “I wasn’t a town favorite, athlete, or member of a wealthy family. All I had was the ability to express myself creatively through my music.” He and his twin brother, the known as Bass, made a name for themselves locally by performing underneath the bleachers at sporting events, in the hallway at school, and at parties. Their most remembered rap was entitled “The Chosen One.” Back then Bass was the rapper, and Muniklip was the beat boxer. “I couldn’t rap and really didn’t have a desire to. I wrote a lot of poetry and short stories and left the spotlight to Bass.” When he finally decided to write his own rhymes, Muniklip took off and never came down, releasing underground tapes while in high school and college. “It was just fun to hear your music being played on the net and at the party. It wasn’t about getting paid back then.”
On the recording side, Muniklip has released official albums and a few live performance videos from Oklahoma City, Dallas, and Little Rock which have been viewed by thousands online. In the late spring of he will be releasing his rd album which is untitled. “This rd album might be my last because I am honing in on other aspects of the entertainment business. I know where the money is. I understand that I don’t have to be the lead man to make it big.”
Whether it be pop, hardcore rap, or rap ballads, Muniklip can switch to suit the crowd at a moment's notice with a very large repertoire at his command. If a background mood is required he has dozen of hits to fit the occasion.
Muniklip just recently returned from touring in the Middle Eastern country of Bahrain and will be returning for a month tour in late .
The world of hip hop has made a dramatic change. For the better or for the worse? No one knows. But it has lost the hard, rugged, raw street attitude that put hip hop on the map. More of the fantasy, booty/jewel/automobile worship and less of the anger and darkness that made hip hop part of the music scene.
Enter Vicious Dogg, better known as V Dogg. V Dogg is here to bring back the in-your-face, hard-as-nails hip hop attitude. He does throw in some of today's commercial appeal, but to a lesser extent. V Dogg's raw and real lyrics instantly grab by the throat and don't let go until the song is over. V Dogg's instrumentals are just as haunting and angry as the man himself is. He is V Dogg. Old school flow, new school attitude.
At twenty four years of age, V Dogg is an experienced rapper/producer/songwriter. He has been in the music scene for twelve years and counting. He threatened to quit one time but music would not let go of him. And now he is back at it with one purpose: to let the world know just who he is. V Dogg is no stranger to hip hop. He is one of the most sought after names in hip hop. He has been on official charts three times at MP3Unsigned and was even chosen as the Featured Artist of the Week there.
V Dogg's legacy in hip hop started with a talent show back in the 7th grade that he placed second in and won fifty dollars. It went on to albums he made for himself, performing at parties, online collaborations, and ultimately bigger, better shows. His biggest accomplishment to date is the fact that he was chosen as Studio 231's Champion of the Open Mic for his hit song "Wiggle 'N' Jiggle".
Back then, he was just cheesy, simple, and kiddie sounding. But now he feels that he is ready. His very first public CD release, entitled "The Merciless Heat Mixtape: Volume One", was released on April 17th, 2007. Expect to hear more from V Dogg, hip hop's newest star.

Pogo Funk originated in the fall of 1999 as an idea of bringing an original sound to St. Louis. We started writing material that ended up coming out as a fresh mix of hip-hop, funk, and rock-based guitar riffs. We started really putting our nose to the grindstone to keep coming up with music for people to enjoy. We released our debut ep, The Sound From The Underground, in 2003. Since then we played numerous clubs in and around the St. Loius area like Mississippi Nights, Pop's, The Red Sea, Hi-Pointe, The Galaxy, and even Cicero's on an open mic night once. We have done charity events such as "Muzak Gumbo", a benefit concert for Hurricane Katrina Relief, and "Green Jam II", a concert for environmental awareness. Now we continue to play and write new music to keep our fans happy and have a blast doing it. New cd out early 2007.
