Artist History The group consists of Macadame, Marc D., Koo LaVeesh, Kilo Kapanel, and Young Joker of solo fame (Who laughin at cha', Somethin' Major). Macadame and Kilo Kapanel originally hailing from Fortworth, Texas adapted street knowledge learned in the dirty south, and applied it to a foreign but oh so familiar environment when they relocatedto Sacramento, California in 1992. There the two southerners would join forces with west coast representatives Koo Laveesh, Marc D., and Young Joker to become Explicit Fam.

Press Reviews Five-man team from Sac-town, Explicit Fam deliver West Coast and Dirty South flows backed with bass-heavy G-Funk tracks. With rambunctious party jams and mellow, synth-driven R&B raps, they serve funky cuts perfect for bumpin' in the ride. (Reviewed by Brolin W. @LISTEN.COM)
