The group is managed by Spice Star Group who are also releasing the DJ Darryl C Book and related song.
The Crash Crew were some of the first Emcees to sing on records and during live performances. The group has performed with some of the biggest names in Hip Hop. According to JayQuan.com, the six grew up in the surroundings of Lincoln projects (in Harlem, New York), and in 1977 the group was created.
In 1980, they recorded their first single under the moniker "Disco Dave and the Force of the 5 MC's". [2] The single, "High Powered Rap", was released on Mike & Dave Records. That same year, the group signed to Sugar Hill Records and released several singles including "We Wanna Rock", "Breaking Bells (Take Me to the Mardi Gras)", and "On the Radio".[3] 1982's "Breaking Bells (Take Me to the Mardi Gras)" was created around the sampled drum break from Bob James's instrumental cover of Paul Simon's "Take Me to the Mardi Gras".[1]
LL Cool J's "Rock The Bells" radio station, dedicated a section of its website to the Crash Crew for their historic hip hop accomplishments.
