Animal Nation is a hip hop duo from Whistler, BC — one part Tall Man Clare, one part Mike Armadillo Slim Armitage. After 8 years as a band and over 200 shows in the past year alone, Animal Nation is releasing It’s Good to Be Us, a 12 song album over 2 years in the making.

URBNET is pleased to announce this release which was inspired Animal Nation’s full life and acts they have preformed with, like De la Soul and Tech N9ne. It’s Good to Be Us features double-time rapping and samples of everything from classic 70s drum breaks to Scooby-doo bongos and even Jennifer Aniston in Southpark. Animal Nation dug and dug for this album, until they found the perfect samples and bass-lines — when they weren’t busy driving 2 hours to the closet music store to replace another broken E string. All of their blood, sweat and partying paid off, cause It’s Good to Be Us is definitely Animal Nation’s dopest record yet!
