North Carolina-based Omniscence drops his 1996 unreleased single STAGE PRESENCE, featuring Toz Torcha, with his THE RAW FACTOR album to be reissued via Below System Records

‘Stage Presence‘ is a vintage unreleased single from rhyme-vet Omniscence. The song was recorded in 1996 shortly after the recording of what was to be his major label debut album, ‘The Raw Factor’. Featuring an appearance from fellow NC spitter Toz Torcha (then of local crew The Vandalz) it’s a vintage head-nodding 90’s Hip Hop track. The single is produced by Fanatic, who also produced all but one track of ‘The Raw Factor’.

Recalling the track, Omniscence said “It was originally intended as a B-Side for a future single from the album. At the intro, you can hear me describing the scene at DJ Clark Kent’s 1994 MC Battle for World Supremacy in New York City which I entered. The guy I was up against was named the winner, but the crowd wanted a rematch because many felt I won”.

Though releasing two singles from the album (earning him a Hip Hop quotable in The Source Magazine) label politics caused ‘The Raw Factor’ to be shelved. This prompted the emcee to take a break from the game (a break that lasted decades). With the release of ‘Stage Presence’, Below System Records is announcing the reissue of ‘The Raw Factor’ on digital stores this spring (with additional unreleased tracks from the same period) and its first-ever vinyl edition to drop this summer.

The double LP edition will be available in purple and black vinyl colors, see the pre-order button HERE.
