Loud Pockets


The Pack is a hip hop group from Berkeley, California. The group consists of Damonte "Lil Uno" Johnson , Brandon "Lil B McCartney, Lloyd "Young L" Omadhebo, and Keith "Stunnaman" Jenkins. Lil Uno and Stunnaman of the members attended Berkeley High School Young L and Lil B attended Albany High where they met. They all recorded together for over a year at Young L's home studio where they released their first two mixtapes Wolfpack Muzik Vol. 1 and Wolfpack Muzik Vol. 2. The Pack expanded their fanbase and eventually got signed to a major label, when Too $hort signed The Pack to Jive Records. The Pack is usually known for their skateboard raps and the sexually mature content of many of their songs. The group is best known for the track Vans (song).

Soon after, The Pack created 2006's sneaker anthem, "Vans" and released it via their MySpace page. The song was heard by veteran Oakland rapper Too $hort who then signed them to his Up All Nite Records imprint via Jive Records. The Pack's hit song "Vans" was number 23 on the top 30 hip hop charts, played on 65 hip hop stations nationwide and on 35 pop stations nationwide. It was also listed at No.5 on Rolling Stone's "Best songs of 2006".[4] The song featured a chorus of "Got my Vans on, but they look like sneakers; (You) wearing coke whites but my Vans look cleaner." The music video for "Vans" aired on BET, but MTV, and MTV jams, refused to show the video because it promoted a consumer product. However, MTV aired an edited version of the video, in which the word "Vans" was censored throughout the song.[5] The Pack released a seven track EP in 2006 entitled Skateboards 2 Scrapers, which included hits such as "Vans" and "I'm Shinin".[6] In 2007, The Pack put out their debut album Based Boys, which included the single "In My Car".[7] In early 2008, it was announced that The Pack was dropped from Jive Records/Zomba Label Group due to Based Boys' lackluster sales. The Pack recently signed with Los Angeles based Indie Pop which is home to other artists such as The Cataracs, Dev, and Bobby Brackins.

They released the mixtape The Pack Is Back in December 2009, their first set of material in a year.[8] Their second studio album, Wolfpack Party, was released on August 24, 2010[9] and includes the group's newest single "Wolfpack Party", produced by The Cataracs.
[edit] Controversy
[edit] New Boyz

The feud began with the start of the 2009 "Jerkin'" movement which led many to believe that the Los Angeles Area had "borrowed" their style from the earlier 2005 "hyphy" movement from the Bay Area. The "New Boyz" aren't necessarily the 'leaders' of the jerk movement though. You're a Jerk"the "jerk. The Pack member Stunna began to diss the New Boyz for stealing their style of music and dress while performing in Victorville, CA (New Boyz' hometown) by calling them the "New Girlz. The New Boyz replied to them over Twitter and told them to get bigger in the industry and then diss them. Stunna then recorded a phone conversation in which he asks New Boyz member Ben J to admit that they stole their style.[10] Both groups have since put out diss records. On the day of Soulja Boy's 20th birthday, the New Boyz had arrived at the party and the beef between the New Boyz and Lil B, and Soulja Boy was over. It is not clear if the entire group has ended the beef with them.
