The Flatbush Zombies are an energetic trio who are obscure, hilarious, revolting, and compelling. Their first full-length mixtape, D.R.U.G.S., got over 50,000 downloads within the first week. Their live show is completely insane, and definitely something to see.
The Underachievers, comprised of two Brooklyn natives, have several hits, including “Gold Soul Theory,” which proves that they are not underachievers in the slightest. They bring a new, fresh perspective as MC’s, and are just getting started making their mark on hip-hop.
