Boo Yaa Tribe, the big, bad-ass Samoan brothers are about to unleash a storm coming out of the west with their biggest, most BANGIN' album ever !!

Boo Ya Tribe the gangsta rap outfit comprising the Samoan descended Los Angeles based Devoux brothers . . Godfather, Kobra, Monsta O, Ganxsta Ridd, Murder One, & Gawtti, have gone back to their rap roots & attracted the help of G-funk producer extraordinaire, Battlecat (Snoop Dogg , Ice Cube), as well as guest artists such as Eminem , Mack 10, WC, Kurupt, B-Real (Cypress Hill ) , Crooked I, Knoc-Turn'al, Kokane, Short Khop, Eastwood & Gail Gotti!!.. . .

For the first time ever, artists from different coasts, circles, and gangs will all be featured on the same album. . That's right, all on one record.!! Only the Boo Yaa Tribe could pull this off!!!

In 1989, the brothers signed to Island Records and recorded their critically acclaimed debut album New Funky Nation. The album sold over 100,000 copies. In '92 they performed on the Lollapalooza Tour which earned them great respect for their dynamic stage show.

Boo Ya Tribe member Gawtti, can be seen on the big screen right now in the movie The Italian Job.

CD package includes bonus DVD featuring the music video for Bang On plus behind the scenes footage.

Focus tracks include lead single "Bang On" featuring Mack 10 & "911 " featuring Eminem & Cypress Hills B -Real". OH MY GOD IT'S BIG! On paper, this could be the album of the year." Corey Moss, MTV.com,

Eminem is one of the most selective rappers in the business... so his appearance on Boo Yaa TRIBE's new record is certainly a statement.. With Battlecat's slammin' production & the talented musicians, singers & rappers of Boo Yaa this release is one that I am excited about. Battlecat always brings the heat and Boo Yaa brings a bangin' performance. This is a great pairing of talent. I can't wait to rock this......LOUD!!!" Violet Brown, (Wherehouse, Urban Buyer)
