The Oregonization launched our first EP back in 2013. That EP had 5 tracks and got us off the ground. We followed up the EP with our first full length album in August 2014 that had 14 tracks, including 5 tracks from the EP. Album #2 of our self titled albums was release August 2018.
The Oregonization, is one man…..J Reid. The Oregonization started with 4 men…J Reid, Mercy B, Ant Sincere, and Chillest Illest. The vision was for old friends who have been friends for well over 20 years to make a record. We did that, now J Reid is still doing his thing with features from some of our areas top artists.
The 2017-2018 version of The Oregonization is J Reid, Ghost Insight, and Canine. Mercy B is featured on many tracks on album #2, just like he was on our first record. Ant Sincere graces us with his talents on 2 tracks on album #2. We have many, many features on our tracks that include Risky Star, LJ, Jhusmie, MC Various, Danny Bravo, Sherrel Hofer, and Reality.
The Oregonization III is in the works, and we expect a release date of September 2019. Our third installment will have features from many well known artists such as Quiz Zilla, Elton Cray, Davier, Arkansas Jonez, Ghost Insight, and many more.
Bangin’ beats, great vocals, tracks that mean something, not just lyrics, and a lot of fun = The Oregonization.
We hope that you enjoy our music as much as we enjoy making it for you!!
