Abstract Rude and A.T.U.
A close associate of the Freestyle Fellowship MCs, Abstract Rude is legend in the Left Coast underground. After maturing as a seasoned battle rhymer in the '90s, he hit his stride with a series of independent full-length albums, collaborations with the Fellowship emeriti, compilation singles, and guest appearances.
Del tha Funkee Homosapien
Del tha Funkee Homosapien came into his own in the early '90s as a solo artist and as a founding father of the Hieroglyphics crew. His unique knack for fresh rhymes on all kinds of subjects -- no matter how seemingly mundane -- has made him one of the most unique artists in hip hop.
Mystik Journeymen
The Mystic Journeymen offer tales of high hip hop adventure in hunting down wackness. An energetic, funny-as-hell Bay Area hip hop crew.
The Pharcyde
The '90s turned out to be a bizarre ride indeed for South Central L.A. rap impressarios The Pharcyde -- or as our more granola brothers and sisters might put it, "a long, strange trip." But Imani, Bootie Brown, and Slim Kid Tre are back on the block with stories to tell, so listen up and don't let them pass you by.
Souls Of Mischief
Nearly one half of the eternal, Oakland California-based Hieroglyphics clan, the Soul Of Mischief are the brightest cluster of rap stars in hip hop's West Coast hemisphere.
