"Savage Tribe Familia" - 110% real

It takes a village to raise a child, but you’re not a man untill you join the tribe. This exclusive sect of hip-hop medicine men push their remedy’s through MPC’s, diamond tipped needles and microphone cords. The four members of Savage Tribe are not your average musicians they live the life like it’s a religion. Savage and Renessis are the original seeds of the crew and Subverse holds down the Saint Louis chapter. The Tribe is overseen by Mic Ave who passed in 06 but his influence is still felt with archived verses for future release. Savage and Renessis (A.K.A. Sav and Ren) were raised in the Saint Louis, childhood friends they attended the same high school. They often crashed on each others couches when they couldn’t or didn’t want to stay at their own places. They could be found freestyling under bridges and always noticed they were the last kids out at night. Renessis acquired turntable’s at the young age of 14, after this they collected any piece of equipment and vinyl they could get their hands on, if it didn’t work they tought themselves to fix it. By the age of 18 they had original tracks and this marked the unofficial beginning of the Heavenly.Wharf.Music label which they release music on today(Click above image to check out some 2010 releases). That Summer Ren is accepted to Full Sail audio production school in Orlando Florida. The two vow to stay in touch and Ren jets down south for School. Savage and the rest of the crew stalked the streets of STL with their homegrown style of hip-hop looking for local spots to rock. A dirty downtown heavy metal bar called “Just Bill’s seemed like an unlikely place to meet like minded people untill they started hosting weekly hip-hop night. In an often strangely mixed crowd local artist’s DJ Spec, DJ Who? and Spark1duh became heavy on the scene. Savage always on grind mode contacted the venue himself and booked his own show on the strength of their tracks. After his first performance at the venue Sav was approached by DJ Spec impressed by the set, suggested they team up. The Sav and Spec live show’s were off the hook with similar influence their styles blended well and they were quickly noticed in the local scene. By 2006 they knew so many other artist putting out hot original music in Saint Louis, that they started looking for a way to get their own and their people’s music on the air waves. Always following Savage Tribe tradition of “Fuck it, we’ll do it ourselves” RawCoreRadio is launched on the internet.
Here’s a track describing Sav’s early L.A. days by East Saint Louis Crew Loose Screws ft SAV called “L.A. Times (S.T.L.A.)”



In 2010 Savage and Renessis have been hard at work in their own studio that they have been building since high school, also getting in some after business hours session’s at Private Island Studios. Underground movement RawCore Radio is being resurrected as we speak by Tribe affiliate Butcher Baker. This year also brings bangin mixtapes “U ain’t know” volumes 1 & 2 featuring Savage Tribe and an all-star cast of STL/KC artists with style by the ton. In new Ep “Padded soul” Sav remasters his favorite classic soul tracks through the MPC 2000XL, it’s perfect when you wanna leave the world behind all are available now. Keepin you warm this winter the “Reburns ep” is to be released soon, featuring all the original tribesman and recorded by DJ Spec in Saint Louis. Slated for mid 2011 Savage is goin hard with his full length solo joint called “Savagery” trust me you’ll know when that hits. You can keep up with all Heavenly Wharf business at their blog spot http://heavenlywharf.blogspot.com/ So never fear Hip-hop nation. Savage Tribe is here to conjure storms, but will always shine light on their people. Holla - Sikboy
