  • Antipop Consortium are an alternative hip hop group. The group formed in 1997, when Beans, High Priest, M. Sayyid and producer Earl Blaize met at a poetry slam in New York City. They are notable for their stream-of-consciousness lyrics and musical references to contemporary composition methods. They released several tape singles and two albums primarily on Dan the Automator's experimental hip-hop label 75 Ark before being signed by Warp Records in 2000. Their releases were met with mixed reviews from the mainstream music and underground hip-hop press alike, although they are noted for their inventiveness and the experimental electronic productions contributed by all members. They were frequently compared to other rappers with unorthodox lyrics, such as Kool Keith, MF Doom and Aesop Rock. In 2001, they opened for Radiohead during the European leg of their Amnesiac tour and subsequently toured with DJ Shadow. The group disbanded due to creative differences in August 2002, with Beans pursuing a solo career while High Priest and M. Sayyid formed Airborn Audio, which released a single album, Good Fortune, on Ninja Tune in 2005, and toured with The Faint and Bright Eyes. All three members have pursued solo projects since the group's breakup. Antipop completed their third album before they broke up, released in February 2003 as Antipop Consortium vs. Matthew Shipp. They reunited in 2007. In an August 2007 interview, the four members stated that they reunited with the intention of touring and releasing a new record. They played a reunion show at the Knitting Factory of New York City in March 2008 and formed part of the support for Public Enemy on the "It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back" Don't Look Back British tour in May 2008. They are due to perform at the 2009 ATP VS the Fans festival in Minehead, UK. A week later the group will play at the Incubate Festival in Tilburg, The Netherlands.
  • Antipop Consortium on 1997 New Yorkissa perustettu vaihtoehtohiphop-yhtye, jonka jäseniä ovat Beans, High Priest, M. Sayyid ja tuottaja Earl Blaize. Heidät tunnetaan etenkin tajunnanvirtaisista sanoituksistaan ja kokeellisesta tuotannostaan, joka ottaa vaikutteita nykymusiikista. Yhtyeen juuret ovat vahvasti runoniskennässä. Heidän tuotantoaan on verrattu muun muassa Kool Keithiin, MF Doomiin ja Aesop Rockiin. Ensimmäiset julkaisunsa Antipop Consortium teki Dan the Automatorin 75 Ark -levy-yhtiöllä. Vuonna 2000 heidät kiinnitettiin Warp Recordsille. Vuonna 2001 he toimivat lämmittelijänä Radioheadille Euroopan Amnesiac-kiertueen aikana, ja keikkailivat sittemmin DJ Shadow'n kanssa. Yhtye hajosi näkemyksellisiin eroihin elokuussa 2002, jolloin Beans jatkoi soolouralla ja High Priest sekä Sayyid muodostivat Airborn Audio -duon, joka julkaisi albumin Good Fortune Ninja Tune -levy-yhtiöllä. Duo keikkaili myös The Faintin ja Bright Eyesin kanssa. Yhtye palasi yhteen vuonna 2007 aikeinaan uuden albumin julkaisu. Ensimmäisen paluukeikkansa he tekivät New Yorkissa maaliskuussa 2008.

Sayyid et le producteur Earl Blaize se recontrèrent à un battle de slam dans New York. Antipop Consortium fut très remarqué pour leur esprit d'invention et de productions électroniques expérimentales. Ils ont été fréquemment comparés à d'autres rappeurs aux paroles décalées, tels que Kool Keith, MF Doom ou bien Aesop Rock. Le groupe s’arrête en raison des différences créatrices en août 2002. Le groupe ayant besoin de décompresser et de régler quelques conflits artistiques, se sépare ensuite. Fin 2007, ils annoncent une reformation du groupe et un album à sortir sur BIG DADA en SEPTEMBRE 2009. Ce dernier s'intulera Fluorescent Black et sera la démonstration de l'avant gardisme du quatuor New Yorkais
