Dedicated to My partner in rhyme. Gone too soon.

Free Download of the track Includes cover image and Lyrics. Gone but never forgotten. My you Rest In Peace my dear friend.

Peace to all who are still supporting The Rising Sun Quest here on Risingsunquest.com, I truly appreciate that. People have been asking what I've been up to since I haven't been posting on my social networks or doing any Live performances as of late. I also haven't released any new music since I recorded that Who's With Me? track. So I'm writing this note to put you on to what I've been working on and what you can expect from me in the near future.

My main focus as of late has been recording and engineering a full length album for my partner and fellow Antfarm Affiliate Expertiz. We recorded about 14 tracks for the album that will be titled "Exact Science". I'll keep you posted on that release. The entire album was produced by True Scribe and was recorded in my studio, "the Southern Cross"

I haven't recorded much Solo music lately but I have had my fair share of collaborations. So Here is a Quick list of collabs and where the tracks will land.

Coming Soon


Ex vs. Quest - Expertiz featuring Quest, Album: Exact Science, Release: to be determined
Too Slow - Maddsonn featuring Quest, Album: The Last Poet, Release: to be determined
Power The Fight - Sketch Tha Cataclysm featuring JK1 and Quest, Album: Indie Rappers Do It For Gas Money, Release: Sept 27th
Reality - Pruven Featuring Quest, Album: Eccentric Cohesion, Release: Mid September
The Convo - Jk1 featuring Expertiz and Quest, Album: When Fresh Was The Word To Say, Release: Dec 1st

My only solo release called I'll Rhyme Now which was produced by Dirt E. Dutch and Is featured on The "Audioware LP" which is a Compilation of tracks from various artists and Producers. The Producers of each track used sounds from Elasticbrand's Audioware collection that consist of porcelain jewelry / artistic wearable instruments. The Audoware Lp is available now for Digital Download HERE and the vinyl release is set for September 22. A concert is scheduled at the Museum Of Arts & Design in New york City on that vinyl release date and will include live performances from the artists who participated in the project including myself. Click here for more info on that. Well, Thats it for now. I'm gonna try to update this page a little more often and let you know as stuff get released.

Peace
Quest

New Track titled - "Who's With Me?"

As Promised...

Peep the new track titled "Who's With Me?" Made available on 9/12/10 for FREE DOWNLOAD. Click Above player to hear the track or click image to visit the track page.

I titled the track as such because as you know this Hip Hop game is flooded with so called rappers as far as the eye can see and it's frustrating trying to get the word out. Standing out can be an impossible task especially if you try to do it alone. So even though I'm ready to do what it takes, I wanna know If your down to help me continue spreading my music about because together we can make some serious noise. So who's with me?

Facebook users check out my Rising Sun Quest fan page for the all new BANDPAGE feature. It will allow you to easily share my music and tweet my tracks so its the perfect tool for promotion. So please Share Share Share and I'll get my ass back to the lab to start working on some new material for ya.

Quest - Voted Best Hip Hop in Fairfield County 2010

Click image to read the feature article in the Fairfield Weekly

Thanks goes out to anyone and everyone who voted for me. I appreciate the continued support and thank you to Jackson Connor for a great article. One thing I wanna get straight though is that Yes, My Crew "The AntFarm Affiliates" does have an Open Mic at Cousin Larry's in Danbury every third Friday of every month. However, I am not the host of that event. The D_Cyphernauts have been holding that spot down for going on 5 years this September and have given us a platform to Rock and better our skills as well as extending the offer to tons of artists in Connecticut and outta state. They have held countless fundraisers for various charitys and causes and have put in tons of legwork that they alone must be credited for.

So on that note, come celibrate the 5th anniversery of Enter The Cypher wit the AFA this September 17th at Cousin Larrys in Danbury, CT. As always all MC's are welcome in our house.

Shout to Ricardo Murillo of Selfmathematiks (photography / clothing) for taking the photo which was used in the article. Hollar at Him if you need a photoshoot or if you need a fresh tee like the "Respect the DJ" tee I'm rocking in the photo. He does fantastic work and you need to get him while you can still afford him cause he's making some big moves.

Peace,
Quest
