At the pinnacle of the independent hip-hop movement, Oakland’s The Grouch and Los Angeles’ Eligh
formed the duo G&E. Hailing from the Living Legends collective, the pair first forged a brotherhood
that led to music. “The first day I met this guy, he wanted to get in the studio and create; I had some
equipment. We ended up back in my basement sampling vinyl and recording songs. I don’t do that
with just anybody,” recalls The Grouch, who has worked with legions of artists as an MC and
producer.
Fast forward many years later, The Grouch & Eligh have cemented themselves as salient artists who
have maintained legions of loyal fans across the globe while consistently releasing music that stays
true to their roots, yet remains relevant in today’s ever-evolving landscape. The duo have recorded
three official albums together; “G&E Music Vol. 1 & 2”, “No More Greener Grasses”, and “Say G&E!”.
Outside of their collaborative efforts, the two are established solo producers and MC’s who have
toured the globe and shared the stage with world-class artists. After hundreds of songs carefully
crafted together, The Grouch summates, “Eligh and I love to record music together. For the most part,
we see eye to eye in and out of the studio”.
