    Progress formed 5 years ago with the merger of the band Tone Color Massive and the artist Innate. Both with having spent most of their lives living for music. Together they grew to encompass many funky styles, from Blues, to hip hop, rock and latin carib. The brotherhood gained through the music carries the intent behind the sound. With their eclectic mix of styles and personalities they have played over 75 shows throughout New York City in the past 3 years. The philosophy is the groove, both in work and in music, they play for the steps forward. Its music with a conscious, told with a sense of humor. Looking at life through the perspective of the outsider. Both carrying the weight of the past, the hope of the future and.... tacos

There are no Prophets in this world There are no Prophets in this world There are no Kings in this world There are no Kings in this world There are no Prophets in this world There are no Prophets in this world There are no Kings in this world We just all out here trying to snatch There ain’t no peasants in this world There ain’t no peasants in these paupers It ain’t no peasants in the world Cuz it ain’t no Kings There ain’t no peasants in this world There ain’t no paupers We’re all rich Out here cuz it’s natural Without enough passion to live Without enough passion to live You might as well quit Ain’t no reason to quit if you sitting on the pulpit With something to say right Ain’t no time beyond today Ain’t no limits beyond this hour Gotta make it what you wanna make it Or baby hit the showers I don’t know

The whole damn thing a joke you fucking idiot Vote or die who and why they illegitimate Can't blame the youth Cuz we just living it Smoke about a pound a day And I drink a bit Not in the game cuz I choose to sit Y'all don't know how to play You always fighting shit They cheat cuz they know they're gonna lose Busters Uplifter, They call this one the uplifter and when the world gets tight I won't let you fall They wrapped you up real nice for being an empty box A waste of time In a world of clocks Nice to hear But nothing to watch Guns and hoes Guns and hoes It's not what you say Its how you talk Would I be fly if I held my cock when I walk If I outlined you in chalk I ain't no snitch Can I smack my bitch Will it make me rich If I play into your steroioio Uplifter, They call this one the uplifter and when the world gets tight I won't let you fall Uplifter, They call this one the uplifter and when the world gets tight I won't let you fall Baby don't like to smoke But she'll take a drink Met when we was young Or so I think Separated for a long time Lifes winding road Gave her heart to many men They say they lover her then They can't remember when they met Memories just end We both aged I work like a slave from dawn to dusk Who can I save with my Uplifter, They call this one the uplifter and when the world gets tight I won't let you fall Uplifter, They call this one the uplifter and when the world gets tight I won't let you fall

No it don’t make no difference If the world ain’t gonna change, yeah No it don’t make no difference If the world ain’t gonna change It was all politics and bullshit Politics as usual How you find your end Hope you find a friend Can we make it right Can we make it right Right out of this slum into what we want to become Into what we dream of and all I dream of is love so lets live No it don’t make no difference If the world ain’t gonna change, yeah No it don’t make no difference If the world ain’t gonna change Came up from the same place you came from We all went wild we all went dumb We all tried to create what we become We all came out the womb numb Numb to this pain Numb to this world And I live and it’s insane And I’m trying to go against the grain Swimming upstream Living my dreams Living my Progress and yes No it don’t make no difference If the world ain’t gonna change, yeah No it don’t make no difference If the world ain’t gonna change And I was fascinated by it Didn’t know I’d buy into it The illusion of it all The drinks the alcohol And I didn’t know that I would by into it We’re all pursuers of it But there ain’t nowhere else to go No it don’t make no difference If the world ain’t gonna change, yeah No it don’t make no difference If the world ain’t gonna change

about

Recorded in 2013 at Touro College studio with engineer Karl Wenninger this collection of 11 songs encompasses the eclectic nature of the tribe called Progress. Each song was recorded in one take in one session in roughly an hour and a half. The music was seasoned for two years prior, spiced with brown juice and good vibes. It is driving music, perfect for your ride. The recordings come to light in the present after being lost in the clouds for 4 years. The groove has never stopped and it won’t any time soon, all we do is Progress…
