- About this Video
- Akil hails from the boroughs of South Central LA and through his Rebels of Rhythm group, quickly rose through the ranks of the LA hip-hop scene - his "crew" later amalgamating with the Unity Committee to become Jurassic 5. Jurassic 5 were picked up by Interscope in 1999, and their first order of business was to re-release the under ground classic J5 Ep, which was followed by ‘Quality Control’, ‘Power In Numbers’, and ‘Feed Back’. While J5 called it a day in 2007 Akil is still touring, playing and spreading his message.
