8th-N-Up

About 8th-N-Up

From Dale City, Virginia small rap/producer group started as time past we begun to take it more serious and added a few more members. Well how did we get started? It's really something that I would say was kind of meant to happen. Now I would give the whole theatrical version of how we came to be, but that's another lesson man. So, here's the short version. We are all students at Norfolk State University we ended up staying in the same dorm as each other, and some how some way the same floor. Hints the reason why it's 8th-n-up and not something else. My name is BEE West, I had my recording equipment in my room, then one day my roomate kind of introduced me to Dev (expired link). Pick-up. Then soon after we both realized our common ground was music. We started making more songs, and collaborating with other artists. That was when it was Dev's idea to name our little recording/production group 8th-n-up, and the rest is in front of you now. Eventhough this our page we do recieve beats and verses from other artists and producers on some tracks, so we would like to recognize them too on this page.
