Artists, The High & Mighty of Rawkus Records Interview 2020 Hip Hop & Sports Memorabilia Collection

Special Guest The High & Mighty hip hop duo from Philadelphia, composed of rapper Mr. Eon ("The High", b. Erik Meltzer) and music producer DJ Mighty Mi ("The Mighty", b. Milo Berger).

Their commercial debut was in 1999 on the underground rap label Rawkus with their album, Home Field Advantage, featuring rappers, such as Mos Def, Kool Keith, What? What?, Cage, Pharoahe Monch, Evidence of Dilated Peoples, Defari and Eminem. They later left Rawkus, distributing the records issued by their own record company Eastern Conference Records via Landspeed Records. They also established a group called Smut Peddlers with Cage and published an album called Porn Again. In 2002, they co-wrote and co-produced Princess Superstar's international hit single Bad Babysitter, with Mr. Eon also providing additional vocals.

Their song "B-Boy Document '99" was featured in the popular Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 video game. A music video for the track "I Wanna (But I Won't)" from The Highlite Zone features actor Michael Rapaport and was directed by Joey Boukadakis.

The titles of their albums and the name of their record label are both references to one of their favourite musical subjects, American professional team sports. Home Field Advantage, for example, features numerous sporting references, including the track "Friendly Game of Football" and mentions of the '69 New York Mets, Cris Carter and Jason Sehorn, among others. José Reyes and David Wright of the Mets were mentioned in the song "Key Master" ("We the future like Reyes and David Wright on Fireworks Night"). Another recurring source of lyrical fodder is the Star Wars film series, with Home Field Advantage including lines about Jedi master Mace Windu, the bounty hunter Greedo, Anakin Skywalker and the droid C-3PO.
