TriPoets (pronounced Zam-P in Chinese) was founded in the summer of 2002, the group consists 3 members: Shortee, Ill Mo and Teacher Lin. The sound of TriPoets stands out among numerous MCs in Taiwan, they have a unique expression of words and wisdom hidden within while they spit the flow. In Taiwan, many have questioned if the art of rhyming could be represented while rhyming in Chinese. The music of TriPoets had changed the opinions of nonbelievers. The way TriPoets construct and invent the rhymes in Manderin is innovative, the originality on the subject matter of the songs as well as the sound and tone of their raps can simply be recognized as the best in Taiwan. TriPoets released their unofficial mixtape album "Listen & Speak," in Oct., 2004. It was the first "underground" hip hop release in Taiwan. The record created a buzz and earned them the reputation as the one of the most respected MC crews in Taiwan. Their innovating move inspired many other underground rappers to follow their footsteps later. The TriPoets had performed as the opening act for Supernatrual, also, had shared the stage with the likes of Kero One, Ice-T, Public Enemy and Toni Blackman in Taiwan. After years of hard work, they had recieved kind compliments from different people and different places, finally, they will soon put out their first highly anticipated official release. And the legend has just begun.
