Four dudes with musical pasts from previous projects but far from a super-group. Four artists with solo projects but this isn’t the side project. 9-5ers is a rap/soul/R&B/conscious/party rap boy band built around real-life commitments that take time them away from creating but give them something valuable to talk about in their creation. 9-5ers represent the creatives out there who walk the tightrope daily balancing work and passion. With 2 EPS, 6 music videos and a best Urban Artist nomination at the VPMAs all within their first year, members of 9-5ers have also individually released 3 solo EPS and 4 beat tapes. Putting in work after work, the bands latest release Phonebooth narrates the transformation they make on a daily basis from office to stage from the building site to the studio, from computer to MPC.
