Team Love is proud to introduce hip hop recording artist Mars Black. Mars, originally from Omaha, Nebraska, is now a New York based artist who, with his DJ E.Babbs, has made an album that both taps into the traditions of hip hop and at the same time ads something new; call it Midwest flavor, or as Mars says, "We come from Nebraska, all we got is beef."

"Folks Music comes from music inspired by my folks, by my friends, the life we live and the things we do everyday, " says Mars about the album's title. The formula is simple, E'Babbs on the turntables, Mars on the mic. The two set out to record their debut in the winter of 2003. A year in the making, it conjures up everything from Method Man to Gangstarr. Mars cites Ice Cube, Public Enemy, Bob Dylan and the Who as his main influences.
