Dramacydal was the first name of the group now known as 'Outlawz' formed by
2pac 'the greatest of all
time'. When they started most of the members were very young, some still teenagers.
The group consists of Kastro, Fatal, Napoleon, Kadafi(RIP), Komani, EDI Mean, Mussolini. Storm(
female) and Young Noble joined just a few months before
2pac's death when the group was then known as 'Outlawz' or 'Outlaw Immortalz'. Most of the members are from Montclair, New Jersey but repped the west side with
2pac.
They appeared on the album 'Me Against The World' under the name Dramacydal. The album
hit number 1 while
2pac was in
prison and i believe its the only album to top the charts while incarcerated.
As 'Outlawz' the group are known for the songs 'Hit Em Up', 'Made Niggaz','Lost Souls'. They also have an album with
2pac called 'Still I Rise' released in 1999, which Fatal was cut out of due to issues with the label.
