Shout out to RawXtract for hooking up the ill shit

So while the anticipation built for "OBNOXIOUS" and "HAZMAT", we got a chance to work with another real talented artist out of Salt Lake/Utah, @RawXtract. This time though, it was on the viddy side of things.  Check out the videos and reviews over at her site HERE.  GM-"Dawn of the Dead" and Elsphinx - "In The Shadows".  Expect more visual newness in the near future, as well as some updates on the crew and what they've been up to while doing shows... heres a hint:

We shouldnt have left you.....but we're back

So, sometimes you neglect your responsibilities.  That has gone on for too long over here at GlassCeilingEffect.Blogspot.com.  We're baaaaacccckk!! (ALL BOLD ARE LINKS TO PROJECTS, FREE DOWNLOADS!!)

Since we started slacking on this internet shit a LOT has gone on in the world of GCE.  Elsphinx has dropped his latest solo effort "HAZMAT", Sime Gezus has dropped "Da Mixed Ape" & GM has officially released his solo album "OBNOXIOUS" (including OBNOXIOUS Chopped & Screwed by Mike G of OFWGKTA), as well as the release of GCEVOL1, the first offering by the official collective that is Glass Ceiling Effect.

On December 14th, Sime & Dr.Khil are back at it with "An Orbituary".   After that,you can expect "Everythingz Drugz" (Sime Gezus & Melvin Junko's smash out album) as well as Melvin Junko's Remix project, and a few other projects that are on the burner at the moment.  Including Elsphinx' "Brain Cave Deluxe". So now watch as we catch up and feel free to get back in the loop.  And if you dont see much activity over here at times, holler at GM on twitter (@GM518630) or the rest of the crew (@Elsphinx, @SimeGezus518, @Melvin_Junko, @Drkhil, @NickNice, @CoseMP)  and make sure to peep the Tumblr if you havent!

Glass Ceiling Effect is....

G.C.E Is a hip hop collective out of Upstate,NY. Ranging from Albany, Saratoga, Gloversville, Troy, and everywhere in between, Glass Ceiling Effect is a product of its environment and far different than what you've come to expect from hip hop today. The artists affiliated with G.C.E. have all faced significant challenges in bringing their music to your ears. This is a different type of NY State of Mind. You may not agree, but that doesn't diminish their existence. Please enjoy your stay here in Area 51-8. Take a look around and stay for a while, we've been here waiting for you to take notice..
