For some, Hip Hop has seemingly devolved over the past decade or more; fallen into a trap of constant self-deprecation for the single focus of making money. S.U.N. (Scientific Universal Noncommercial), born Santonio Hughbanks, has taken the initiative to return the music and the culture to its distinguished past, while bringing a refreshing and original sound back to the forefront. S.U.N.’s distinguished career has led him to work directly with some of the biggest names in the business. As a member of the Fonkey Bald Heads he had the opportunity to work with the late Prince. He has recorded with, and had featured appearances on his records by such hip hop luminaries as Juice, OneBeLo, Bizarre (D-12), and Buff 1 among countless others. He was listed by the Metro Times (Detroit Weekly) as “one of several local artists who should be credited for the evolution of the Hip Hop scene in Detroit, MI.”
