Chester French is a band made up of two members, Max and D.A., both Harvard grads. The band, who named themselves after sculptor Daniel Chester French (who designed the statue at the Lincoln Memorial), sparked a bidding war between Kanye and Pharrell before landing on Star Trak records about 2 years ago. Their sound is kind of retro influenced pop rock.....Clinton Sparks described it as "putting The Beatles and Outkast together." This mixtape will allow those who haven't been exposed to the sound of Chester French an opportunity to "get familiar". There's a wide range of guest appearances including Diddy, Pharrell, Jermaine Dupri, Wale, Bun B, Talib Kweli, Mickey Factz, Cassie, Solange, Janelle Monae, N.O.R.E., Kardinal Offishall, Pusha-T of The Clipse, Common, Lady GaGa, Ben Lyons and The Mad Rapper.
Shout out to Reese (www.100styles.com ...get familiar) and D Grizzle for tweeting/talking about these guys...I would probably still be sleeping on them if they hadn't.
