Chicago, IL. (EMI/Caroline Records) - Chicago and D.C./Maryland hip hop have something very important in common – they're both underrated. But as of this fall these two emerging scenes have something else in common. On the heels of a critically-acclaimed debut, SoulStice and D.C.-artist Haysoos resurface as Wade Waters. Picking up where their Return of the Kings mixtape left off, the fusion of classic Chi-town and east coast hip hop culminates with the duo's epic debut album: Dark Water.

To say that SoulStice spits knowledge would be an understatement; after all, he does have a Master's Degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering and holds down a position with the Department of Defense!! Yet, that's just one facet of SoulStice' life. Ten years of grind and immersion in the hip hop scene culminated in the fall of 2005 for SoulStice with the release of his debut LP, North By Northwest: Solid Ground, a critically acclaimed debut that graced the pages of esteemed Print publications such as XXL, Scratch, Urb, Mass Appeal and Net sites such as Allhiphop.com, Hiphopsite.com, okayplayer.com, Ballerstatus.net, rapreviews.com, Soundslam.com and Hiphopgame.com. When Haysoos is not holding down a teaching position at the University of Maryland, he's no stranger to the indie hip hop scene. His work on the Father Scott Unlimited album "Sweet Potatoes," garnered critical acclaim, holding a spot on the CMJ hip hop album charts for 5 weeks. His solo projects, collaborative efforts, and guest appearances have lead to worldwide recognition.

North by Northwest fused the signature Chicago funk and groove based sound with the thump of classic East Coast boom-bap. On the heels of their mixtape release, Wade Waters: Return of the Kings, SoulStice and Haysoos re-emerge to carry that fusion to the next level. Their debut album, Dark Water, finds SoulStice and Haysoos collaborating with the legendary AZ on the LP's lead-single, "Speak On It" and former Terror Squad member Cuban Link on the smash single "Rock Solid." In addition, Wade Waters captures the signature sound of D.C./Maryland with the aid of up-and-coming producer Kev Brown, who contributes production on "That's My." According to Neil Levine, head of Urban Marketing at EMI/Caroline, Dark Water is "a classic gem from Wade Waters bringing back real hip hop."

With both SoulStice and Haysoos firmly etched in the east coast and midwest hip hop scenes after a slew of successful single releases and a new distribution deal with EMI/Caroline, Wade Waters is ready to make their mark. With a sound both revolutionary and classic and a rapidly growing buzz, Wade Waters is the group to watch in 2006 and beyond!!
