Über Bored Stiff
BORED STIFF


Bored; tired of and slightly annoyed by things that are not interesting, exciting, or entertaining.

Stiff; strong or potent in effect, showing determination and resolve.

Bored Stiff is internationally known for their classic underground, raw and original sound. Their lyrics and production center from a style that captures and blends ideas and sounds like a collage. Bored Stiff also known as B.S. or The Stiff was formed in 1992 in the Fillmore, lower Haight Street section of San Francisco. Made up of 12 members including Equipto, Big Shawn, TD Camp, Mint Rock, Mic, Dubstar, P-Way, Jules, and more, The group recorded countless tapes through the 90's, and released records like "Explainin'”, "Timeless,"(now high priced collectors items), an album entitled "Ghetto Research"(look out for bootleg vinyl in Europe), and appeared on numerous compilations.

Rocking shows throughout the Bay Area, West Coast, Europe, Cuba, and Japan the group built a strong reputation and fan base. Although they haven't released much music as a crew lately, the group has branched out with most of the members releasing successful projects to this day. Coming together to record a new album, B.S. decided it was time to give the public a taste of what’s missing in Hip-Hop. Their new promo CD (3 songs) is a prime example of what Bored Stiff stands for… Stuck in a Rap scene full of people scared to be themselves, B.S. makes music with the confidence to be different. Their new album “Buildin’ Our Building” is due in May of 2007, and promises to give listeners a refreshing combination of interesting and original production with content that is sincere, unique and long over due.

Lookout for Bored Stiff to come together and take their place among Hip-Hop’s finest...

Hell yeah! If you haven't heard of the legendary Bored Stiff, you better get studying! Since 1992 the twelve man crew of San Franciscans have been making independent music alongside contemporaries Living Legends, Hieroglyphics, and many other Bay Area mainstays. During the 90's they released two EPs (now collectible ebay items) and in 2001 they released an album entitled 'Ghetto Research' before going on to pursue their own successful solo projects; Equipto's collaborations with Andre Nickatina being the most high profile of the collective. After a nearly 6 year hiatus, this is the album fans have been waiting for. With sampli-fied beats, proficient scratches and feelgood rhyming, the Stiff stay true to what earned them fans in the first place: Making good music.

This is a music video that I shot and edited with the help of my potna Drade and the group BoredStiff aka "The Stiff" We shot this in like "98" We shot some in the "Moe" and on 16th street. Alot of it was old school footage that "The Stiff" already had. These dudes are Frisco Legends that put out true unda ground rap music. Now a days you can still catch Equipto puttin out albums. You can catch the other fellas puttin out music and appearing on several mixtapes. This music video is Raw and Unda Ground just like the "The Stiff" If I'm not mistaken this is the only BoredStiff music video ever made.!
