Grimy, underground cats from Cleveland. No gimmicks, no tricks, just raw hiphop from the most overlooked city in the hiphop nation. Dont sleep!
Band/artist history
We linked up around 1995. We took all the 'flows' we had and made 'songs' out of them. We started spittin over Wu-Tang instrumentals. It wasn't till 1997 when we finally got in a real studio. We paid the loot, hit the booth, and did what we had to do. We later hooked up with a cat named Dizzazzter, who being an incredible lyricist, fit right into our plans. We recorded a few songs for a local producer and started making a name for ourselves. Later... I (Sho) bought a bunch of equipment so we could do our own beats and mix our own music. Wasn't long before we had about 5 songs on mp3.com... one made it to #12 on the hiphop charts. That led us to LoPro records CEO K.T. Taylor. He got us in the studio and we recorded our first LP (2001 A.D - Anno Domini [The Year of the Lordz]). Lord Sho is currently working on a solo LP... be on the lookout.

We do lil open mic spots at the Rhythm Room here in Cleveland. We also got the opportunity to open for Jadakiss in November 2002 in Erie P.A. Be on the lookout for Cleveland's Finest.
