Although this duo has been around for years, I've just recently discovered them. MC I Self Devine and DJ Kool Akiem make up this Atlanta-based rap group. Both aren't originally from GA., Akiem is from California and I Self Devine from Minnesota. The Micranots are and always have been independent, never signed.
In an interview I ran across, Akiem was asked who were his major influences,,,Akiem answered: Marley, Premo, and the RZA. Marley for blending loops and song structure with scratches and shit. Premier for chopping shit up real good and rearranging shit. And the RZA for bringing out that rugged off beat shit, cutting tracks on and off in ill places.
Micranots started their own label, "Mental Madness Wrecords", which is primarily a vehicle for putting out more Micranots records.
