The Pharcyde: Hip-Hop Group in New York

About The Pharcyde

The Pharcyde is a hip-hop group that emerged from South Central Los Angeles in the early 1990s. The original lineup includes Imani, Slimkid3, Bootie Brown, and Fatlip, with early DJ and production support coming from DJ Mark Luv, J-Swift, and later J Dilla. Their work favors nimble group interplay, shifting voices, and a loose, jazz-minded sense of rhythm over hard-edged minimalism. In New York City, they bring that ensemble approach to rooms like Brooklyn Bowl, where the emphasis stays on flow and timing.
