about

Before musicians Jason Noble and Jeff Mueller were indie rock gods with their bands Rodan, June of 44, and Rachel's...they were RAP SUPERSTARS.

In Kentucky, that is. Louisville Kentucky, to be exact.

Together with their beat-loving, RUN DMC adoring buddy Greg King (King G) on drum machine and keys, the three formed the group KING G AND THE J KREW while still in high school, and performed live a handful of times, to the astonishment of many. They were joined by fellow nerds Jonathan Hawpe (Secret Weapon, on vox) and Alan Lett (guitarist and "dude in the black EP shirt because he didn't want to be half-naked"), and the group self-produced SNUG as a cassette release in 1990, using Hawpe's Tascam 4-track...and the rest is history. In Louisville, Kentucky, that is.

The SNUG album would later be followed up with their much-better-produced "real record" THE INDESTRUCTIBLE SONGS OF THE HUMPBACK WHALE in 1992, on CD. But that's another story...
