High & Mighty
The High & Mighty are an underground rap duo from New York. Members Mr. Eon (rapper, b. Eric Meltzer) and Mighty Mi (DJ, b. Milo Berger) originally hail from Philadelphia. They debuted in 1999 on the prestigious underground rap label Rawkus with the CD "Home Field Advantage", featuring rappers such as Mos Def, Kool Keith, What?What? (aka Jean Grae), Kool Keith, Pharaoe Monch and Eminem. They later left Rawkus, distributing the records issued by their own record company Eastern Conference via Landspeed. They also established a group called Smut Peddlers with Cage. Rapper Master Ace called them "a couple of high whiteys", because he was not pleased that they mentioned listening to his records in their "Jewish slaughterhouse" - it is not clear whether Ace simply misunderstood their hommage or whether he attacks them for being white hip hop musicians.
