The Shotgun Wedding Quintet is an underground hip hop/ jazz band based out of San Francisco, Ca. The MC and players are all sick, and have yet to hear a song I haven't personally loved. Dude raps about everything from drunkenness, to politics, to dreams, to classic hip hop. The instruments and dudes vocals blend very well together along with the light scratches that go over a handful of songs. The sound is very unique, hope yall dig it. Just recently realized they weren't on Youtube so just put up a bunch of tracks.

Not necessarily my cup of tea but I have heard their debut album, and it is quality music, to say the least. "I personally think OBCL2 is better than the original" - Lord Meth
