8-Bit Pimp : A

A_Rival : 8-Bit Pimp.
Chip-hop defined...electronic rap at its rawest.

From Game music producer, composer, and performer A_Rival comes "8-Bit Pimp"; the first full-length, Hip-Hop album of all original music in where all tracks and beats were composed entirely using the sound chip of the Nintendo Entertainment System. A_Rival is quickly bridging the gap between Hip-Hop and the up-and-coming "Chiptune" scene - an emerging music genre established in San Francisco among DJs, composers, producers, and musically inclined fans of game music that seeks to push the boundaries of the art form.
