Spotlight: Sophistafunk
Sophistafunk, Aristorap! That about sums up the group composed of Keyboardist Adam Gold, Drummer Eman Washington, and Emcee Jack Brown. I (Matty J) used to be an emcee in the group as well, but have since moved out of Syracuse down to the Big Apple. Sophistafunk, however, has not slowed down one bit. On the contrary, they have been making slow but steady progress up in Syracuse and the Central NY area. They play every Tuesday at Funk N Waffles, a coffee shop owned by Adam Gold. They have recently caught the attention of Marshall Street Records, a label owned by the University, who want to produce an album for the band. They are currently in the process of refining and recording their songs, so be on the lookout for an EP soon!
