BIO BEGIN----------

There is a lot more to Denver – The Mile High City – than the Broncos, majestic
mountain views and guaranteed winter snowfall. If you dig deeper, past the high
rise buildings, overpriced restaurants, grungy dive bars and suburban sprawl,
you’ll find a flourishing Hip Hop music community featuring a couple of rising
stars calling themselves The Strugglas. Led by longtime Denver Hip Hop players
Mz. Neeq and Big Smurf, the duo collectively has, as they say, “been putting it
down together for a number of years.” The “it” they refer to is a slamming “hella”
live show they perform together in and around the Denver Hip Hop scene at
places like Cervante’s and Hermans Hideaway.
Formed in 1998, the duo (who are also husband and wife) became first-time
parents, which put the music of The Strugglas on hold for a brief period until re-
grouping later to record and release the appropriately titled “Bounce Back.” The
Strugglas promoted themselves to keep their name fresh and performed at a
number of local shows. With a good buzz from the album providing momentum,
they were ready to move forward and capitalize on success. Life, however, had
other plans for the musical husband and wife, and they ended up becoming
parents again, which they say they were prepared for the second time around.
The Strugglas stayed in the public eye, playing more shows and promoting the
music. Their efforts paid off with the completion of their new album "Holla Back,”
a 14-track album featuring some of the sweetest, smoothest grooves and beats
on either side of the Rocky Mountains. Mz. Neeq, says the music on “Holla Back”
is “conscious music.” “We have an automatic stage vibe—it’s like fire to a
match!” she says. “We’re here to inspire, to give back to the community and to
stand for something.” For Mz. Neeq, standing for something comes down to a
simple motto: Each one, teach one. She says their music represents all people
regardless of color or religion, and that The Strugglas stand “for justice, for
peace and equality for everybody.” Big Smurf likens their songs and real-life
lyrics to an undeniable and motivational force, with a beautiful splash of energy.
With his wife and best friend, Mz. Neeq, at his side, The Strugglas are sharing
their witty, energetic, fresh alternative Hip Hop as a family with the musical family
of man.
