The High & Mighty is a hip-hop duo from Philadelphia, consisting of MC Mr. Eon (Erik Meltzer) and DJ Mighty Mi (Milo Berger). Rising to prominence in the late 1990s, their sound is characteristic of the East Coast hip-hop scene, with a blend of witty, often humorous lyrics and sharp, sample-heavy beats. Their career took off with the release of their critically acclaimed debut album, "Home Field Advantage," in 1999. This album not only established them as significant figures in the underground hip-hop scene but also featured collaborations with other prominent artists, further boosting their profile.

Over the years, The High & Mighty continued to build their legacy with a series of releases that echoed their initial success and showcased their evolution as artists. Albums like "Air Force 1," "The Highlite Zone," and "12th Man" further cemented their reputation for producing high-quality, distinctive hip-hop. The duo not only focused on their own music but also worked to promote other artists through their record label, Eastern Conference Records, a move that expanded their influence within the hip-hop community. Their commitment to showcasing raw and original talent is further exemplified in projects like "The High & Mighty Present: Eastern Conference OG Demos vol 1 (Instrumentals)," demonstrating their range as artists and producers in the industry.
