Ntl

1. NTL Is A Rap-Crew From Novosibirsk Russia Formed In The Year Of 2000 By Jerry. Initially The Group Started With Three Guys Who Had Studied Together And Had The Same Music Interests Jerry Lyoha And Den. Jerry Who Had Little Experience In Rap Suggested That They Form A Group It Was Then The Name "NTL" Came. Their First Performance Took Place At Their School. Their Song Was About Classmates And Was Read To One Of Dr. Dre's Mixes. Later Lyoha Left The Group But Jerry And Den Continued Working Together. The Two Collaborated With A Neighborhood Group Called "Bagabit " Their Music Was Written By DJ The Cat. In This New Squad NTL Performed At Various Concert Sites In Their Town In Clubs And Hip-Hop Parties. In 2001 As A Result Of Den’s Recommendation A Frenchman By The Name Of Hans Entered The Group Another New Member Sen Followed. In This New Team A Few New Tracks Were Recorded The Music For Which Was Written By Jerry. NTL Matured And Soon Thereafter Cut The Ties With "Bagabit." At This Stage They Started Overrunning The Internet With Their Tracks They Also Recorded Music With Rappers From Other Cities And Counties. The First Of Which Was Alex ISquad From San-Diego With The Track "НТЛ И Алекс" "NTL And Alex" - "Наш Мир" "Our World" . Later They Met Drago With Whom They Recorded "Вертите Задом" "Shake Your Butt" Which They Brought To Light At Russian Hip-Hop Gatherings. Gradually NTL Decided They Needed A Girl To Complete Their Group Thus Tina Came To The Scene. It Was During This Same Time NTL Started Closely Interacting With Smeshnoi It Was His Suggestion That Finally Persuaded Them To Take Part In Live-Concert At The Rap-Territory On The Kemerovski TV Program. It Was This Performance That Brought Them Into The "Сибирский Альянс" "Siberian Alliance" Which Consisted Of "Плохие Белые" "Bad Whites" "K-316 " "56 Размер" "56th Size" And A Few Other Solo MC's. In 2002 Olven Joined NTL For The Debut Track "Жертва" "Victim" Which She Recorded With Tina And Jerry. At This Time NTL Had Enough Material To Put Together An Album. Neither The Local Hip-Hop Rallies Nor The Internet Were Enough To Fully Get Their Business Going So They Started Sending Their Promo-Discs To Various Hip-Hop Labels. In The End NTL Lighted Up On A Few Official And A Bunch Of Pirated Rap Compilations. At The Beginning Of 2003 Jerry Left For Moscow To Survey The Situation With The Labels And To Get To Know People Who Worked In Producing. As A Result In Two Week's Time He Returned With A Proposal To Sign A Contract With S3T Production. The Contract Was Signed. In 2003 Their Album Debut "Выход" "Exit" Was Released With The S3T Production Label A Clip Was Filmed To The Song "Вертите Задом" "Shake Your Butt" As Well.
