Im not sure how well known these guys are in the US, but I never see or hear of anyone talking about them.
The Artifacts:
"Artifacts is a now-defunct hip hop group consisting of El Da Sensei, Tame One and DJ Kaos. They hail from Newark, New Jersey and made underground music that paid homage to the four elements of hip hop. The Artifacts' most popular single "Wrong Side of Da Tracks" paid special homage to graffiti art, as they were graffiti artists themselves."
..Taken from Wiki.
They have 2 sick albums, 'Between a Rock and a Hard Place' and 'Thats Them'
Their best songs...
Im curious, anyone on here familiar with this group?

i'm familiar with a few tracks here and there (specifically "Wrong Side of the Tracks" which i heard in a skate video as a kid) as well as some of El Da Sensei's solo work. they're dope for sure.
Artifacts are VERY underground and unknown here in the US.
Really? hmmmmm, I dunno why but I thought they wouldve been well known. Obviously its pretty hard for me to get an idea of whats underground in the US, other than by how hard/easy it is to locate info and downloads of the artists discography. Its certainly interesting to find out who is actually underground, and who is well known. Thanks man...
ive been listenen to artifacts since 5th grade and im only 18 now. definetley one of my favorite hip-hop groups they incorporate all the aspects of hip hop Hip-Hop fiend
