The Original Hawaiian Rapstas-
SUDDEN RUSH!!
Aloha from Hilo Hawai'i. We are Sudden Rush, the true originators of na mele paleoleo (Hawaiian Rap Music), spreading the message of a nation, the Nation of Hawai'i.
THE MEMBERS
Kid Dynomite (Shane Veincent), is the complete artist. His dream has become our dream.
Pakalo (Caleb Richards), the element of excitement. His gift to spice up the crowd is a sight to see.
King Don 1 (Don Kawa'auhau) is also a Hawaiian language teacher, and his gift to merge Hawaiian language and Rap is truly unique.
DJ Radical Rob (Rob Onekea) also heads Way Out West Productions, and is the backbone of Sudden Rush's stage show. He has also produced both Sudden Rush CDs.
Tuko (Kwai-Chang Publico) is the manager of Sudden Rush. Tuko is Hawaiian for "glue", quite appropriate as Tuko holds the group together and keeps them focused on the big picture - spreading the voice of our nation.
ACCOMPLISHMENTS
Sudden Rush has opened for acts such as Maximillion,K7, and The Fugees, just to name a few. They have also worked with and built lasting relationships with such prominent local artists as Keali'i Reichel, Willie K., John Cruz, Ehukai and many others. They have performed statewide, and can frequently be seen performing at benefit concerts that support the Hawaiian language immersion schools statewide.
