IMPAC DEBUT WITH THEIR NEW ALBUM
`ALMOST FAMOUS'
IN STORES JULY 25, 2006
ALBUM FEATURES PRODUCTION BY CARNIVAL BEATS & FANTOM OF THE BEATS
(Los Angeles, CA) – Impac announce the release of their new
album `Almost Famous' due in stores July 25, 2006 on 33rd Street
Records. This explosive new album is executive produced by Checkmate
and features production by Carnival Beats and Inertia of the Beats
Originally assembled by Clinton Davis in 2004 by pulling members
from a number of his affiliate groups, Impac were set to be the
biggest supergroup in the South East. Nonetheless, the group Impac
has become Young Jay, Killa, Tank and Kidd.
Impac display their rap talent throughout `Almost Famous' and prove
that they are also the total package. They get flavor on the
searing "Hold Up," on the pounding "Right Tonight," and kick street
lessons on the track, "My Life."
It is that type of insight that makes `Almost Famous' such a
significant album, as the group explores life's highs and lows
throughout each of the album's 17 songs. Cuts such as "Problem With
Me" and "Jump Back" best illustrate Impac's brand of music with
meaning. "We're not concentrating on rapping for other rappers or
rapping for the girls," Young Jay says. "We're trying to make real
substance with everything we do. We were taught by the best and we
can't have it any other way."
Indeed, Impac are already gearing up for the release of its next
album, `Next Up', set for a summer 2007 release and are setting up
Above All Entertainment's new artist Gutta. With each step, Impac is
working on building on their career. That is one reason why `Almost
Famous' sounds so therapeutic.
"Everything we do is therapy," Kidd says. "Everything we go
through, we put it into our music. We learned that from Checkmate.
That's what music is about, experience. That's why some people will
rather listen to Ready to Die or Reasonable Doubt than what's out
now. It's timeless when it comes from the heart. We're trying to
make music like that." `Almost Famous' does just that.
