RBL Posse in San Jose | Metro Silicon Valley | Silicon Valley's Leading Weekly

Since the creation of hip-hop in the '70s, the genre has developed regionally. The SF Bay Area scene refined that regionalism to an impressive degree, and no group embodies the Bay's own thing more than RBL Posse. Founded in 1991 in SF's Hunter's Point, the group reached instant success with the self-produced "Don't Give Me No Bammer Weed." Though RBL Posse followed up with further successful records, tragedy followed as well.
