Pockets & TeX

The Brooklyn duo from Gowanus Houses, met in fourth grade, developing a brotherhood that would last the test of time. The two started freestyling together by 7th grade & would begin the metamorphosis into MCs. Destiny would separate them as Pockets would move to Cali in 1995, this allowed the two to develop their craft as solo artists. Fate would reunite the team in NY by 2001 & by 2002 DMI was established. RX represents the harsh realities of poverty, the ups & downs of the streets, the motivation to succeed, & inspire hope in the hopeless. Intellectual, entrepreneurial, & sophisticated, but rawness in its purest form. Students of the game & curators of the culture, Pockets & TeX are the symmetrical balance of showcasing the foundation of NY HipHop, while pushing the boundaries of progression to uncharted territories.
