At the pinnacle of the independent hip hop
movement, Oakland's The Grouch and Los Angeles' Eligh formed the duo
G&E. Hailing from the Living Legends collective, the pair first
forged a brotherhood that led to music. "The first day I met this guy,
he wanted to get in the studio and create; I had some equipment. We
ended up back in my basement sampling vinyl and recording songs. I don't
do that with just anybody," recalls The Grouch, who has worked with
legions of artists as an MC and producer. Fast forward many years later,
The Grouch & Eligh have cemented themselves as salient artists who
have maintained legions of loyal fans across the globe while
consistently releasing music that stays true to their roots, yet remains
relevant in today's ever-evolving landscape.
