Ms. Gnomiagre' (pron: No Me Ah Gray)

The word "Gnomiagre'" means the breaking in the clouds, after the storm. "People would always say oh my goodness, everytime you walk into a room heads turn. Your like a burst of sunshine...and this is how I got my name".

Born to Lawrence and Anita, the newlyweds knew they had created something special. A little town in northeast Philadelphia was all a buzz about this little baby girl who was born covered in gray, and performed a complete 360-flip minutes after seeing the sunshine. "And she's been flippin' ever since.." says her father whom she's originally named after. Little Lauren grew up singing in church after father first, then mother both became ordained ministers. In elementary school she knew she wanted to be on somebody's stage, most of the time if not in church she would perform for her family. However, she began to draw a crowd.

Joining every performing arts activity she could possibly make time for she not only became a member, but excelled to the top. A preacher's kid and the youngest of four girls, she's graced the stage since the age of Twelve in her first professional production tour, with the American Family/Prince Music Theater's Rainbow Company. "The Janet Jackson of musical theater" she's been called, incorporating her energetic stage pressence and diva-esc personality into every performance defines her name. Gnomia joined the CFO fresh off the road with a local theater company in 2001. As a background singer for Cee Knowledge and the Cosmic Funk Orchestra, she toured nationally for about two years before being presented with opportunity of a life time: recording her first solo project at the legendary Sigma Sound Studios (with Sound House productions).

She's worked with legends such as Bobby Eli (MFSB/Disco Inferno), Joe Tarsia (Founder of Sigma Sound House/ Vet. recording engineer), and Dj Miz (World supremacy winner/Eve). Through her career she's also had the opportunity to perform for and with actors Monica Calhoun (the best man/players club), Mel Jackson (soul food), Leon(the temptations) , and none other than First lady Laura and President George W. Bush.

AFFILIATIONS : i2i, 224, LAW 1, iCP, DPG, OTB, BOLD ART, & 5TH DYNASTY,

As a ghetto youth young Chi led a hard knock life. Born and raised in POWER HILL (PHILADELPHIA) then as a teenager later relocated to the BAD LANDS (NORTH PHILLY) which is considered an urban battlefield left in ruins as a result of the crack wars in the 80’s. Early in the game he became addicted to street life. Everyday was a struggle in order to survive. He got caught up in all sorts of crime, hustles, & scams.

Despite the harsh reality of the black experience living in a low budget environment The Chi embraced Hip Hop wholeheartedly in all its truest forms. He got worldwide rep for being one of the most influential writers in GHETTOGLYPHICS. (GRAFFITI) It was then he discovered a talent hidden within him self that would change his life forever.

THE FLOW (REPETITION OF WORDS THAT GLIDES OVER BIO RYTHMS) opened a whole new world to Chi. From that point on he capitalized off his super lyrical skills to gain fortune and fame. Unfortunately during this transition he drawn to much attention from the controversy of condemning Uncle Sam (ILLUMINATI, NSA, FBI, CIA, etc…) and became Public Enemy No.1 to the powers that be.

In a desperate attempt to escape the clutches of the New World Order, Kai Chi sought sanctuary over comrades’ secret C.F.O. headquarters (MISSION CONTROL). It was here where he met a man named CEE KNOWLEDGE (FOUNDER OF C.F.O.) who shared his vision and recognized the potential of a rhyme phenomenon in this young soldier. Knowledge decided to take The Chi under his wing and help him master his new profound abilities.

For three years they crossed the globe training day after day in martial arts, photography stage presence, voice projection, the sciences of life, studied 120 The Supreme Mathematics, and gained knowledge of self. Through the use of RAPKINESIS The Chi managed to climb the ranks of C.F.O. at the speed of crack rocks becoming the No. 1 operative still to this day specializing in lyrical MCGUYVERISMS (PHAT RAP CATRAPTIONS).

POWERS:
DIME CONTROL - The ability to control & manipulate the minds of unintelligent female life forms. RAPKINESIS – The psychic rhyme power to move crowds of people with super flows. METAMORPHISMZ – The ability to change any structure of a substance into a smoke able rolling apparatus to relieve any stressful situation at hand.


 

Cosmik Krissy

Krissy Carlson is a singer/songwriter/actress, born in Rhode Island. Krissy was adopted at birth because her parents were too young to have children. Krissy began her career at an early age 8 with children's musical theatre. She also, began writing poetry and short stories at an early age, using these as an outlet for her feeling of never finding her place in life. Krissy spent the early part of her life struggling through group homes in the city and learning life's lessons the hard way. “I spent long hours listening to my friends from the group homes, beat-box and rap and teach me about life. After leaving state custody, I found solace in traveling on the road. I had to leave for awhile because things were getting bad every where I turned.”

While hitchhiking her way to shows around the country, Krissy Carlson found her calling. “There were musicians all around me.” Music, lights, chaos and confusion attracted this young gypsy. She traveled around like this for 3 years and finally decided to go home and rest. This is where Harvest Tribe came into play. “While settling down in RI, we formed a band and started playing out. I concentrated on this for awhile and then went right into studio recording after the death of our lead guitarist Jester Jim. I started out recording in Maf‘s(Blank Fasiz) basement . Through him, I met up with Cee Knowledge (Doodlebug of the Grammy Award winning Digable Planets), and we hit it off immediately and started working together on his album. We did some shows together around the country, from New York To Los Angeles. We began recording my album in Sigma Sound Studios in Philadelphia , PA. with Bell. I met up with numerous artists and did collaborations with Jah Sun (Born Rulers, King Britt) and Kai Chi (Cee Knowledge and the Cosmic Funk Orchestra, KingBritt). These collaborations inspired me even more to finish my album. Cee Knowledge introduced me to another producer Troy Taylor (Boyz II men,Tyrese,B2K), who then added some more life to my project, including a collaboration with Dave Ghetto (Nuthouse Crew). I, then met up with Trakaddix members T.O. (Jaheim, Ground Floor), Spliff (Realism), Delick (Mike Weekes) and Weswind (Darkflow Productions). We began recording solo tracks locally. I, then returned to Sigma Sound House, and recorded with in-house producer Don Wil and his brother Bigga Dre. Moving up, I have worked on collaborations with Dice Raw of The Roots at Larry Gold's ‘The Studio' in Philadelphia, thanks to Jah. Also in Philly, Cosmik recently worked out of the legendary A Touch Of Jazz Studio, writing and performing an original song with in house producer Demien (Jill Scott), who will be releasing his solo album. Cosmik also threw some ad-libs on a new song written and performed by Farnsworth Bentley (Making The Band, P.Diddy)and produced by Grammy award winning team Vidal and Dre (Usher, Alicia Keys, Jill Scott).

She also graduated Connecticut School of Broadcasting for radio and television. She has made her appearance on screen in an independent training video.
