Jungle Brothers - Straight Out the Jungle



The Jungle Brothers are an American hip hop group who pioneered the fusion of jazz and hip-hop and also became the first hip-hop group to use a house-music producer.



They began performing in the mid-1980s and released their first album, Straight Out the Jungle, in 1988.



With Afrocentric lyrics and innovative beats, the Jungle Brothers were critically acclaimed and soon joined the influential Native Tongues Posse.



The trio is comprised of Michael Small (Mike Gee), Nathaniel Hall (Afrika Baby Bam) and Sammy Burwell (DJ Sammy B). Sammy B left the group after the group released Raw Deluxe. - Source: Wikipedia
