The Fearless Four Reunite Onstage For The First Time In A Decade

The Fearless Four Reunite Onstage For The First Time In A Decade

Harlem legends The Fearless Four reunited last night (9/13) for a performance at New York City's Blue Gallery. The performance marked the first time that the full group has performed together in over a decade frontman DLB tells Rock The Bells. "We hadn't performed with Tito since 2009, and we hadn't performed together since the 2014 Hill Reunion," he recalled.

The group ran through their classics, setting off the show with 1983's vocoder heavy hit, "F-4000". They then performed "Creepin' Up On Ya", "Problems Of The World", and their 1982 breakout hit, "Rockin' It". The show was a reuniting of DLB, Mike C and Peso with Tito who last performed with the group nearly 15 years ago. "I cried in Tito's arms backstage, I missed my brother so much," Mike C said on IG.

The Fearless 4 are DJs OC and Krazy Eddie, and Microphone Wizard DLB, The Great Peso, The Devastating Tito, and The Mighty Mike C. They are the first rap group to score a record deal with a major label (Elektra Asylum Records), an on Enjoy Records they released "Rockin It" and "Its Magic." 1982's "Rockin it" was such a success on New York's WBLS that it broke records for its time on the charts.

On Elektra, The Fearless 4 released "Just Rock"/"Got To Turn Out," "Problems of The World," "F-4000" and "Fearless Freestyle." Like their neighbors, the Treacherous 3, their extended vocabulary and clever word play were well documented. In 1994, they released their first full length project, "Creepin' Up On Ya" on Easy Lee Records under the name Fearless.
