Back in 2008, as Lou (one of the hardest working individuals on planet Earf) was sitting listening to the famous Gangstarr track, "You Know My Steez," with a good friend of his, the thought of starting up a Hip-Hop website, to show Miami what good Hip-Hop was about, arose. Now he finds himself MAD overwhelemed with a gang of writers to take care of, including a Goobs that stomps around the Internets. In the future, we most likely will find Lou in the Hialeah Mental Hospital writting PHP code on the foreheads of other crazies with crayons and sharpies.

Four score and about the beginning of 2009, Goobs told Lou that she wanted to rock his world by joining forces and taking her words to the streets via Antisteez.com. (She was, after all, a seasoned writer/blogger/one time reporter, even!) Lou, ever the gentlemen, gave Goobs free reign to stomp around the Internets making noise about bands and thangs that she thought the world needed to acknowledge. She stomped so loud, that Lou gave her half the site. (A wise move on his part, because he is a genius!) Now, politely married via her business partnership with Lou, Goobs still stomps around the Internets, spreading truth and justice about the 305 and beyond, and yes, she still rocks Lou's world, (in a very platonic, non-sexual harassment way) as Editor-In-Chief for Antisteez.com. Moral of the story: You gotta walk like a champion, talk like a champion. The End.

In her neuroticism and demandingness Caro sternly suggested that Lou and his blog outline events throughout the Magic City. People have a right to know! Especially when these "people" are pretty oblivious to the legion of events going on everyday in the 305. This, then, led to a plethora of anal retentive requests of Meta descriptions, SEO, H1 tags, alt text, HTML, CSS, PHP, Google Analytics, keywords, anchor text and many other sexy...err, nerdy terms. When she's not reporting events or optimizing the site, she is usually debugging new layouts or just bugging in general. Caro's usual 'Steez assignment of the day: Sit there and look pretty. Check.

Behind the evil labs of Unaimed Pistols Under Supervision, Damian, an eccentric crazed musician and writer rumored to have drunken fingers in account of experimenting with a demon possessed syringe, while recording the misadventures through his digital journals and spreading it across the internet seas, Lou, had picked up the scrolls wondering what the fuck this mad man would be writing about. Through knowledge of music marketing, rock/electronic music, and music promotion, Lou reluctantly recruited Damian (as long as he left his cynical rant shit on Unaimed Pistols Under Supervision) to the Antisteez crew. Hoping to one day bring the light of sanity to the mad man Damian, both Lou and Goobs crowned this mad man as Knight and hypnotized him to making him think he's also a mere gerbil.... but that of course is another story for later chapters. Recently, Damian has been interviewing and networking with bands and artists at larger scale in hopes of making the Miami Music scene stand out in a national level.

From school days til now, Stephanie has taken her unconventional, out-spoken, unpredictable, passionate, and non-conformist ways to express herself through writing. Thanks to the connections from Antisteez's own EZ, Stephanie has unfolded artists and events, making each story appetizing enough for all the hungry readers not only in the 305, but to ordinary people like you know, Matthew McConaughey. Determination, recognition, and entertainment are just a few of the ingredients that keep Stephanie motivated and feeding us more.

The small print in the Book of Hip Hop makes mention of the prophet Ezekiel. Knower of the music, fanatic of the beat and addict of the audio Ezekiel, more popularly known as EZ, sheds light on the harmonious sounds that will bring us to righteousness. After being sternly encouraged to make a podcast by one of the Steez members EZ quickly found musical salvation with Antisteez. Read his word of truth and purity. Church.

How he got here is not important. Okay, well... yeah it is, a little. Writing out of habit since he was a jit running through the streets of Hialeah without a care in the world, Omar really never let go and has had a steamy on-again, off-again love affair with words. Manning the only cannon at Gunshots From a Real-Life Typewriter, his lonely blog about movies, he carried on this love affair, feeling dirty and shameful, but still coming back for more. And now, thanks to the wonderful tentacles of social networking, Omar has been let loose at the whorehouse, so to speak. Recruited by none other than your resident guanajo wrangler, Goobs, Omar has found a home. Although we cannot guarantee that he will behave, he promises to clean up the mess and not wake your parents.

Everyone's a photographer these days... D-SLR's are a dime a dozen and Instagram makes everyone an artist. But that can't add up to decades worth of experience, a FullSail degree, a kushy gig with World Red Eye and stock in PhotoHeads Studio. Harold D. Ruiz has the talk, the walk and things we'd rather not discuss in a public forum. The important part is the kid is chock-full of talented and that's why we keep him around- snapping pictures at events or manning the tripod shooting music videos and interviews. If you happen to see his Canon out and about be on the ready, because Photoshop isn't magic (although very close). #innuendo

Luke came here to chew bubblegum, and kick ass... and he's all out of bubblegum. After years of failed attempts to assume the mantle of Batman, Luke retired from crime fighting to focus on channeling his inner sports ninja. After much contemplation and meditation, Luke started A Big Steaming Pile of Sports in late 2009. A lover of all things 305, he continued to verbalize the sports landscape from the fan in the upper deck's perspective. About a year later, Luke was shown the path to enlightenment by Omar (the 'steez's own resident Guanajo), when he introduced him to the sassy, classy, mistress of antisteez.com, Goobs. All too happy to be part of the home team, he has joined forces with this band of merry misfits, and is all in on their plans for world domination.
