Emerging from the somewhat unknown grounds of Colorado, Imhotep(AKA K-OSS), Siklone, Lyrical Hitman (Rest in Peace!) and DJ Remody make up 2 Real 4 da Mind (AKA) “Indigenous Peoples”. With their rapid fire delivery and conscious lyrics 2 Real 4 da mind has captivated audiences all over the United States. In an era where mainstream killed the art form known as Hip Hop 2 Real is a breath of fresh air. 
THE BEGINNING: Imhotep (Jimmy Macias) and Lyrical Hitman (Larry Harris) formed a hip hop duo in high school. Months later Fa’ Dora (Kent Ware) and Siklone (Anthony Romero) joined the crew. 2 Real’s first EP was very socially conscious and discussed issues such as racism, poverty and politics. Soon after Fa’ Dora left the group and is now a very successful DJ in the Denver area.

A STORM IS COMMIN’: 2 Real’s first full length album was titled “A Storm is Commin’” This album was released in 2003 and did well for 2 Real 4 da Mind. A sold out release party launched 2 Real’s career. Soon after this album was released Lyrical Hitman left the group to join the United States Marine Core.

SOKIS: SOKIS (Is an acronym for Siklone “SIK” and K-OSS “KOS” spelt backwards. This was a duo album with Siklone and K-OSS with guest appearances by Lyrical Hitman and 7ven. Another notable collaboration on this album is a song 2 Real did with Gift of Gab of Blackalicious called “The Jazz~n~me”. 2 Real branched out and tested many forms of music on this album from Jazz to R&B.

LYRICAL HITMAN: While saving the life of a fellow Marine Lyrical Hitman (Larry D. Harris) was killed in action fighting for our country in Afghanistan. He was awarded a Sliver Star as well as a Purple Heart. He will forever live through our hearts and through the music he blessed us with! RIP to our brother Larry! 
A DAY LATE & A DOLLAR SHORT: A Day Late & a Dollar Short will be by far 2 Real’s best work. This album has guest appearances by Bone Thugs~n~harmony, Q-Loco, Sleep (Of the Chicharones) and Rock Angel. The release date for this album has not been set but should be out in 2011. WHAT'S NEXT? The group is currently on tour with Bizzy Bone of Bone Thugs~n~harmony and Q Loco.
