Black Moon

Real Name:Kenyatta Blake (Buckshot Shorty), Eward Dewgarde (DJ Evil Dee), ?? (5 Ft. Accelerator)
Profile:In April of 1992 Chuck Chillout introduced Black Moon to the aspiring hip-hop label Nervous Records and were soon signed. Three months later the group recorded their first single "Who Got The Props". At the start of 1993 Black Moon started touring around local venues in New York alongside with Smif-N-Wessun. During most of the year the album Enta Da Stage was in the works and was later released in the fall. Upon its release, it created an immediate and sensational impact among music critics and underground hip-hop patrons. Black Moon continued to gain much notoriety in 1994 vibing off the success of the various singles and E.P.s from Enta Da Stage; the single "Buck 'Em Down" reached #2 on the Billboard singles chart; and the album sold over 200,000 copies. However all was not well within the group and 5 Ft. left during the summer of 1994. By 1995 creative differnces led to Buckshot splitting from Evil Dee and put a close to the chapter of one of the most influencial underground hip-hop acts of the post-old school-funk-loop generation. In 1996 Nervous Records released Diggin In Dah Vaults compiled with various remixes, B-sides, and other rarities. Buckshot continued to make a name for himself in music through his work with Smif-N-Wessun, the formation of Boot Camp Clik, and a release of a solo album in 1999. DJ Evil Dee also gained acclaim as a member of Da Beatminerz production crew and work at New York's premier hip-hop station Hot 97. In 1999 Black Moon came back to reunite and released their second official release on Priority Records titled War Zone and a third album titled Total Eclipse in 2003. However, neither of those albums will be remembered in association with Black Moon; their timeless classic Enta Da Stage has been agreed upon by many to be one of the top hip-hop albums of all time.
