Flosstradamus, the big Chicago trap duo that were a part of the trap movement from day 1 have broken up yesterday. Josh, who took the role of the hype man of the group, waited until the end of their major tour to break the news to their fans. He will pursue a solo career under the name "Yehme2", and everyone should expect some exciting new music from that project very soon. Meanwhile, Curt will remain on as Flosstradamus as that evolves into a solo act.
