STINK TANK™ was formed in the summer of 2006 by producer Man Mantis and MC Dudu Stinks. Inspired by the creativity and originality of acts like De La Soul, The Roots, Wu Tang Clan, MF DOOM and Madlib, the two sought to create a conceptual statement on the current state of hip hop, using multiple characters (all portrayed by D. Stinks) to create a microcosm of players, haters, gangstas and wankstas. After two years of dedicated studio work, their debut LP, Books on Tape, is now available.

Books on Tape
In the tradition of MF DOOM and the Wu Tang Clan, Man Mantis and Dudu Stinks weave together an alternate universe in which a cast of characters at once satirize and transcend common conceptions of hip hop music.
