Psycho Realm

Real Name:
Jack Gonzalez & Gustavo Gonzalez
Profile:
The Psycho Realm was started by brothers Jack Gonzalez (aka Jacken) and Gustavo Gonzalez (aka Duke) from the Pico-Union area of downtown Los Angeles. They hooked up with Louis Freeze (aka B-Real of Cypress Hill) in 1993, after B-Real saw them performing at Olvera Street in downtown Los Angeles. Psycho Realm was doing an ‘End Barrio Warfare’ (End Gang Warfare) concert and B-Real happened to be there. He hit them up after the show, and joined the group a few years later.
Their music has more of a political/spiritual type of sound, with street life experiences. They rap about many issues that are affecting the world today. ...Judging from even a cursory glance at today's major newspapers and news magazines, the collective mental state of the world's population can best be described as chaotic: the lives and deaths of the many are determined by the few; myriad wars and rumors of wars are spawned on a daily basis, from the countless border clashes that spontaneously combust on the global scale to the ongoing turf battles taking place in Everyhood, USA; financial and political might is held in higher regard than principle-centered living and esteemed with an admiration that borders on worship, while respect for human life seeps away like blood from multiple bullet wounds. From within this current state of worldwide insanity emerges The Psycho Realm. Maintaining delicate balance between profound self-analysis and keen observation of the external environment, this three-man team from the tension-heavy barrios of downtown Los Angeles comes forth when society - including Hip Hop itself - seems to be on the verge of a breakdown. After a decade of paying dues, fact-finding, and gathering information about the world at large, they're ready to disseminate their conclusions to the masses...

Reviews & Discussion

Review by TerraTrax Feb 19, 2005 (edited over 4 years ago)
Since Gustavo Gonzalez (Duke) was shot in the neck on January the 28th 1999 and now paralyzed for life, he's not able to make music anymore. Therefore the last tracks on A War Story Book II is made only by Jack Gonzalez (Sick Jacken). More information about the shooting is able on http://www.psychorealmonline.com - News.
