Biography

Another name for Visionaries and Of Mexican Descent member 2Mex, Songodsuns first showed up in the mid-'90s when 2Mex and some friends, including DJ Nobody, got together to make a record. However, other commitments prevented an album from coming out, though a single, "Love Fights Back," was released in 1999. Finally, between incessant touring, 2Mex was able to enlist help from producers Sa-Ra, KeyKool, Babu, Subtitle, and DJ Khalil, among others, and set about recording, using the moniker Songodsuns as a way to express his interest in other forms of music besides hip-hop (he admitted to being heavily influenced by They Might Be Giants, Elliott Smith, and the Cure). Over the Counter Culture, though it was definitely a rap album, boasted musical beats under 2Mex's rough-voiced flow, and was issued on Up Above in 2005. ~ Marisa Brown, All Music Guide
