In recent months, Duck Down Records has added new members to its family artists, obtaining album deals with B-Real of Cypress Hill, set to release "SMOKE N MIRRORS" on January 27th; group projects such as KRS-ONE & Buckshot, Sean Price, Guilty Simpson & Black Milk "Random Axe," all lined up for albums in 2009, and the latest, the official signing of Ruste Juxx who is preparing to release his first solo album "Indestructible," on October 28th.
However, in their most-recent effort to expand the overall fan-base, Duck Down has just signed the Punk Rock Group, "SPECIAL EDUCATION," and has announced its sub-label, "DUCK DOWN ROCKS!!!" The group is comprised of lead vocalist, Johny Rambo, Guitarist/Vocalist, MonstaMan, Bass Player, GUITARDED, the Drummer, Unnamed, and back-up Guitarist, 'Death to Cabs In New Jersey.' Special Education is slated to release their first album "I RIDE THE SHORT BUS" on February 17th through Arts And Crafts Records/DUCK DOWN ROCKS!!! Co-owner and CEO of Duck Down Records, Dru Ha, had this to say about Special Education: "When Sean Price first told me about his cousin Johny Rambo's group I was skeptical. I mean everyone has a family member that can rhyme or sing, now do Punk Rock? However, after seeing "Special Education" at the rehearsal studio a few weeks ago I was sold. These guys are awesome, they kick ass (pause) and their performance energy was heightened to levels I haven't seen in recent memory. Equally as impressive is the band's start up label, (Arts and Crafts Records) that has really set up some great initial grass roots marketing. Being that Buckshot and I don't have much experience with Punk / Rock bands having Arts and Crafts on board made it a no brainer to sign the band and take a shot. We immediately called our good friend and director Rik Cordero to document a rehearsal session to soon share with the world." Source : hiphopgame.com HIT THE PROPS BUTTON!!!

They're startin' to become one the biggest underground labels in the game.
