Biography

[url=http://www.discogs.com/artist/Evidence+(2)]Evidence[/url], [url=http://www.discogs.com/artist/Rakaa-Iriscience]Rakaa[/url] and [url=http://www.discogs.com/artist/Babu]DJ Babu[/url] joined together in 1992 and released "Third Degree" (1997) and "Work the Angles"(1998) on ABB Records, developing a solid fan base in the underground hip hop community. They had previously recorded an album titled "Imagery, Battle Hymns & Political Poetry" that was never released (1995), although many fans still have it on bootlegged tapes. The group eventually signed with Capitol Records and released The Platform (2000) to more critical acclaim. Its second set, Expansion Team, was released in 2001 led by The [a=Alchemist]-produced "Worst Comes to Worst," which utilized a vocal sample from Mobb Deep's "Survival of the Fittest" and a musical sample from William Bell's "I Forgot to be Your Lover." The group's third album, Neighborhood Watch, was released in 2004 and debuted at #55 on USA's Billboard 200 Albums Chart. In addition to the [a=Kanye West]-produced single "This Way," it featured the single "Who's Who?" which was also included as a track on the Need for Speed: Underground and SSX 3 soundtracks. It peaked at #35 on the UK Singles Chart. The groups latest installment, 20/20, was released in 2006; the debut single, "Back Again", was featured on the Fight Night Round 3 soundtrack. This was the third EA Games Soundtrack on which the group has been featured. "Back Again" is also featured on Sony's MLB 06: The Show. 20/20 was the group's "farewell" album on Capitol Records, ending an increasingly frustrating four album contract, which restricted the group's solo careers.

I'm goin' back to scratchin', rappin', clappin'
Got you realizin' that beat junkies the sound
So since he came in the town, ya know he shuttin' it down
And all the people can't get off of this
Speed it down, slow it down, either way
Put the needle on the record, and the static sins chills
Thru the body of a real DJ
The select' dream is to only play the records that they feel
And to still be payed
Add it up, dance floor packed plus warn that they wanna come clash with us
Dj Baboo, dilated world famous dj now crew
Now catch the rush
