Newcleus

Newcleus is an American Hip-Hop group formed in 1977 and based in the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York. The group was formed by three teenage DJ's collectively known as Jam-On Productions: Ben "Cozmo D" Cenac, his cousin Monique Angevin, and her brother Pete. By 1979, the group's members had evolved to include Cenac, Yvette "Lady E" Cook, Monique Angevin, and Bob "Chilly B" Crafton. The group recorded two iconic albums ("Jam On Revenge" in 1984 and "Space Is the Place" in 1985) and one iconic song Newcleus: Jam On It (1984) that immensely influenced the growth of old school hip-hop, DJing and break-dancing in the early-1980s.
