These albums were produced by the label Rudethug Productions Ltd.

The Unit has been very successful and have sold more than 5 million albums between them. The biggest selling album of 2007 was 'Weapons Of Mass Destruction' by Clusta Bomb and thus received a MOBO and a Grammy for his achievements. The other members have been successful but have yet to emulate Clusta Bomb's success.

According to the website 'Dogs On Acid' Anthology Unit are recording a new album which is set to drop some time in late 2008. The new album is widely expected to become the biggest selling album in history and many people have tipped them to become Global Megastarz of tha future.
