Scoe and Magnum will end the negative perception about Boston rappers around the country with their hard-core explicit content, punchlines and flawless delivery.

Scoe admits to being extremely vocal and rambunctious, while Magnum is dangerously quiet with a more composed demeanor. Scoe and Magnum were exposed to the business aspect of the music industry with the past successes and failures of their family members' careers. Both Scoe and Magnum have had to face obstacles with previous projects, including Scoe's investment in Royal Line Entertainment and Magnum’s affiliation with the Block Execs.
