“Binkis Recs was created due to the lack of creative and honest hip-hop music”, is what the Binkis Recs mission statement claims. The thick beats and energetic rhymes have all of the creative power that today’s independent and underground hip-hop needs. Hailing from Atlanta, Georgia, Binkis Recs (also known as Binkis Records) consists of Killa Kalm, Jax The Axehandler, and FluxDaWundabat (aka Flux). The word “Binkis” is an acronym for “Before Ignorant N*ggas Killed Intelligent Songs”.
Like Jurassic 5, Prophetix, and The Roots, Binkis Recs have gained a strong following for rocking live shows with that old-school loving feeling. On Day By Day Entertainment (home of MF Grimm, Prophetix, Rodan, etc), the debut LP from Binkis Recs, “The Reign Begins” has just been released. While most of the production is handled by Binkis, John Doe also contributed to their new album. Songs like “Bullitt”, “Wundaluv”, “Testimonial”,“Out The Box” and “Spinacapita” are all tight, energetic, hip-hop songs that possess both fun and a serious love for the culture.
Still, the members of Binkis Recs have released solo albums by themselves. Flux released “The Many Moods Of Mister Flux”. Jax released “J.F.K. (Jax Forever King)”, “Observ LP” as well as “Sharp Images” CD.
