We can't be certain if Labwaste's Giovanni Marks and Thavius Beck are here to save Hip-Hop or destroy it, but if anyone has the power and the right to do either, it is these two emcees/producers.  As their alter-egos, Subtitle and Adlib (respectively), they have independently established themselves as pioneers of hip-hop's avant-garde, blurring lines between what hip-hop is and what hip-hop can be by melding iron Hip-hop values with a fiery experimental drive, blending and bending genres of all kinds into all manner of angles.  Now riding shotgun to each other as Labwaste, they are carving yet more trails in the darkest of terrains, blazing a testament to the possibilities of Hip-Hop and art.
