Biography

Jurassic 5, a six-member group formed in 1993 in Los Angeles, quickly gained critical acclaim with their self-titled debut EP released in 1997. Comprised of rappers Marc 7even, Chali 2na, Zaakir, and Akil, along with producers Cut Chemist and DJ Nu-Mark, the group's unique sound stood out in the late '90s rap underground scene. Their success continued with subsequent albums, including Quality Control in 2000 and Power in Numbers in 2002, as they captured a diverse fan base through performances at various music festivals.

After a brief hiatus following the departure of Cut Chemist in 2006, Jurassic 5 regrouped in 2013 for a highly anticipated reunion tour, showcasing their enduring influence on the music industry. Despite some setbacks and lineup changes over the years, the group's legacy remains strong, marked by their innovative approach to hip-hop and memorable live performances that transcended traditional boundaries.
