They've managed to nail a sound that peaked before they were born.
The spirit of old-school hip-hop collectives such as Wu-Tang Clan and N.W.A. is alive and well in, a trio formed by Aurora-based rappers Jupe$ , Don and Mr. Counted Out . The three Gen-Z MCs have somehow managed to nail a style of rap that peaked before they were even born, and have reinterpreted it in a way that appeals to hip-hop fans of all generations.
Twenty-one-year-old Acevedo also went to Overland, and was pursuing rap on his own before he joined A$cension."He had his own little rap thing going," says Sarles,"and we started kicking it, and one day he was like, 'Can I be in A$cension?' I was like, 'Sure! Why not?' It was still in the early stages of everything, so it felt like everybody could be a part of this.
While the rap collective was the default model for success for many early rappers, it's rare to see such a group exist in mainstream hip-hop today. Clashing personalities, schedules and egos often lead artists to pursue solo careers instead, but the members of A$cension have found harmony by working together. From that first impromptu cypher between Sarles and Augustine to the addition of Acevedo, the trio has been driven by the idea that they can push each other to be better artists.
One thing's for sure: The group is sticking together."In the upcoming year, we definitely want to push for more shows," Sarles says."At least double the number we did this year."
