about

“When we think of Jazz, we think of communion of souls merging as one force to create one sound, the music of the spheres, the ever-present, everlasting OM. When we think of Hip Hop, we think of free form poetry, mature and muscular, intelligent and timeless. If we are able, we may imagine what could happen when those two realities come together. This is where COPUS lives." JOE KIDD – Clouzine Magazine

lyrics

When you feel the TRUTH
As it stares in your face
And all you see are lies
Running rampant in space
Do you rise to the occasion
And get up on your feet
Or do you sink in the pit and
Let them cause you defeat

(partial lyrics)
