└────────┘
An influential alternative rap quartet from South Central Los Angeles, the
Pharcyde was formed by MCs/producers Tre 'Slimkid' Hardson, Derrick
'Fatlip' Stewart, Imani Wilcox, and Romye 'Booty Brown' Robinson. Hardson,
Wilcox, and Robinson were all dancers and choreographers who met on the
L.A. underground club circuit in the late 80's, worked together for a
while, and served a stint as dancers on In Living Color.
Stewart, meanwhile, performed at local clubs and eventually hooked up with
the others in 1990. Under the tutelage of Reggie Andrews, a local
high-school music teacher, the group learned about the music industry and
the process of recording an album. They landed a deal with Delicious Vinyl
in 1991, and a year later released their eccentric debut album, "Bizarre
Ride II The Pharcyde", which went gold.
After support slots for De La Soul and A Tribe Called Quest as well as a
successful spot on Lollapalooza's second stage in 1994, the group released
its second album, "Labcabincalifornia", which was calmer than their first
but no less warped. After a five-year break which saw little action except
for the debut of Stewart as a solo rapper (his single 'What's Up Fatlip'
became an underground hit), the Pharcyde returned in late 2000 with their
third album, "Plain Rap". The group fractured even more during the
subsequent three years, leaving only two members - Imani Wilcox and Bootie
Brown - to man 2004's "Humboldt Beginnings".

Explicit note: This is the US pressing first edition (discogs calls it
Speciality Pressing) that features all explicit lyrics, including track
12 "Passing Me Be" which you can hear at 01:52, it differs from the
previous releases. And to serve the flac rule 4.5.2, this first edition
came with an explicit sticker on the jewel case. Far fetch? Maybe. But
this is one of hip-hop's best albums ever, so it deservs this 'Speciality' treatment.
