如果你觉得HIP-HOP 只是“那些不良”少年在那里一个劲的 “恩”“哈”，那我想Cunninlynguists的歌会改变你们的看法。因为对于音乐来说，他最早的一个形式，不是旋律，而是节奏。Cunninlynguists—将为你重新定义南岸的风格是什么。 Cunninlynguists 是个来自南方的组合，包括了白人制作人Kno(来自Atlanta)，黑人Deacon the Villain(来自Kentucky)以及之后加入的墨西哥裔freestyle高手Mr. SOS(来自Florida)。在06年1月24 CunninLynguists发行了他们的第三张大碟—<A Piece Of Strange>，这张专辑请到了C-Lo、Cee-Lo Green 、Immortal Technique以及Tonedeff献声, 整张都由Kno制作。 The progressive Southern duo Cunninlynguists' combination of witty lyrics and edgy production has made them a favorite of underground hip-hop fans. Before they teamed up, Deacon the Villain from Kentucky and Kno from Georgia were already well known among the hip-hop underground for both their skills on the mike and their abilities in the producer's chair. Celph Titled, Tonedeff, and Mr. SOS all made guest appearance's on the duo's 2001 debut, Will Rap for Food, which appeared on the small Urban Aces label and soon went out of print. Rave reviews and Internet message boards helped make the album a rare collector's item until it was reissued in 2005 by the Caroline-associated Freshchest label. Freshchest was also responsible for the Cunninlynguists' sophomore effort, 2003's Southernunderground, which found Mr. SOS joining the group, allowing Kno to switch his focus from rapping to production. Two loose mixtapes featuring a parade of guest stars have also appeared, with Sloppy Seconds, Vol. 1 landing in 2003 and Sloppy Seconds, Vol. 2 following two years later. Mr. SOS had moved on by the time of their third album, Piece of Strange, which arrived in 2006.
