Bio / Background
" At the risk of sounding ridiculous, let me say that the true revolutionary is guided by feelings of love." Che
rev•o•lu•tion :
A sudden or momentous change in a situation
“The Art & War of Misanthropic Philanthropy is the product of four very unique individuals known collectively as S.E.L.F. It was created to be an agent of change; a soundtrack to the revolution of the mind. The time for change is now. We must shift patterns of thought. It is time to end the ignorance and apathy that has infected our society. It is time to end the worship of idols and material goods…time to end the complacency. In order that our philosophy of change be understood we, the undersigned, created a 14 track manifesto…our self expression of living freely.”

That is how the revolution will begin…
Some people will listen to the music on this 5 inch piece of plastic and describe it as great hip hop; others will hear a call for change via a musical manifesto whose authors are known as S.E.L.F. (Self Expression is Living Freely) of the collective Lotus Tribe.
S.E.L.F.’s debut LP is a labor of love taking over 4 years to mastermind and design. The MC’s, Trinit-i (Jason Torres), the Reason (Mark Gonzales) , and Aura (Jacob Lopez), are your philosophical guides through the cinematic landscape of arrangements produced by Aura and Aether216 (Diego Chavez) too beautiful and complex to be merely described as beats. Each MC brings a unique perspective and style of expression to the mic…Aura the mind, with his focused abstract lyrics, Reason provides the physical flows filled with urgency, and Trinit-i the soulful expression of emotion and hope.
Hope…that is the keyword.
As you listen to this CD, with its relentless attack of the ignorance and materialism that we live in... there is an underlying message of hope.
Change is the only constant…revolve and evolve to evolution. Revolution.
