Outside - "Where? Saint Paul"
Single from the album“...looking in” by our group OUTSIDE (2005). OUTSIDE consisted of the eldest Looney brother Raphael and backed up by his brother Elliot. Mike Sweeney and Pete Magnuson held down the wheels of steel, crushed production, and put down bass & guitar tracks. OUTSIDE was formed in the late 90’s at Saint Paul Central high school. The group played local venues and built an expansive audience in the underground and local hip-hop music scene. They shared stages with local hip-hop legends like Craig Nice and Heiruspecs.
