Terror Squad

Terror Squad is an American hip-hop collective hailing from The Bronx, New York, best known for their street narratives and potent lyrical delivery that captures the essence of urban life. The group was formed in the late 1990s by the late influential rapper Big Pun, alongside fellow emcee Fat Joe, who became the de facto leader following Pun's untimely death in 2000. Terror Squad was a formidable force in the rap game through the early 2000s, boasting a lineup that included artists such as Armageddon, Tony Sunshine, Remy Ma, and DJ Khaled, among others. Their dynamic interaction and diverse talents fostered an environment that was ripe for creating impactful music.

The group's most iconic single, "Lean Back," released on their 2004 album "True Story," became a cultural touchstone, reaching number one on the Billboard Hot 100 charts and getting the world to embrace the eponymous dance move. A gangster-strewn narrative interlaced with opulent braggadocio, the original track encapsulated the gritty glamour of the streets and clubs alike. Over the years, this anthem has seen various remixes, including a notable one by NGHTMRE, which brought the group's classic hit to new audiences in the electronic dance music scene. While Terror Squad has disbanded, their legacy lives on, with members pursuing solo careers while occasionally coming together to remind the world of their indelible mark on the hip-hop landscape.
