Earthgang

To understand EarthGang, one must first recognize that they are not your typical hip-hop duo. While rap is the foundation of their art, elements of R&B, jazz, gospel, and funk have enriched the innovative albums, experimental EPs, and masterful mixtapes the duo has produced since the group formed after Olu and WowGr8 met.

GRAMMY nominees, critically acclaimed artists, and two of the best live performers working in music today can be attributed to their
global ambitions. The name EarthGang is rooted in a desire to have the world join them on a journey where music is used as a global vehicle to explore relevant themes of society and self; the conflict between tradition and modernity, religion and Enlightenment, music and manhood.

With over 600,000 followers on Instagram, 3 million monthly listeners on Spotify, and 127,507,652 views on YouTube, the band has grown considerably. EarthGang’s second album on Dreamville, Ghetto Gods, deftly conveyed self-discovery, spirituality, and the fight for social justice. The depth of their introverted lyricism was appropriately paired with a production palette of dynamic beats that helped elevate their high-energy performances. Following the release of Ghetto Gods, EarthGang joined The Gorillaz for 20 unique and unforgettable arena shows across the United States.
