Cyne (Cultivating Your New Experience) formed in the summer of 2001, in the swamps of Gainesville, Florida. Cyne is emcees Akin Yai and Cise Star, and producers Speck and Enoch. Their often politically-charged, culturally-introspective, and motivational lyrics find influence rooted in the early works of Nas, Public Enemy, Outkast and Common Sense. The production could be described as warm, soulful and organic -- born out of the school of producers that cite the likes of RZA, Pete Rock, Jay Dee, and DJ Premier.
