The group Black Mob has been together since 2001 with big plans for the Montreal rap music scene.. The group presently consists of members, Q, Key, Mako-C. They each bring their own individual strengths to the group. When asked what their music is about they explained that artistically they each have different styles, they each choose to rap about what is important to them. In other words they each make music that expresses their individual realities and all together it becomes "Mob Music".
Black Mob has performed in several venues across the island of Montreal, they shared the stage with lengendary Grammy winner Michael Rose of the fame Reggae band Black Uhuru at the 2007 Montreal International Reggae Festival, they were also able to release a single with the aforementioned Michael Rose called: "Number One (Favorite Girl)". Black Mob has also opened up for Collie Budz and Jim Jones, and also performed on a float for Montreal’s annual Caribana Festival. Along with those high profile performances they have also performed for the grand opening of the LaSalle Community Center, and also headlined the first annual WIBCA (West Island Black Community Association) fundraiser. As a Collective they feel events such as these are very important, so that they can let the younger generation see that older peers of the same circumstances can do something other than wrong and obtain their goals.
Black Mob has also previously recorded a single called “Hatin’ (Young Generation) with reggae legend Junior Reid. Both singles mentioned were produced by Grammy Nominated Apex Productionz, who also produced the Grammy nominated hit single "I Get Money" by 50 Cent.
The single "Hatin'" and the "City On Fire" mixtapes have definitely put Black Mob on the local and international radar of hip-hop groups to watch. Black Mob show great appreciation for the support they get from their home based fans in the West Island of Montreal and abroad. Black Mob has and will continue to release their individual and compilation Mix Tapes (CD's) for the public. Black Mob is currently working on their debut album that is promised to bring more of that "Mob Music". Black Mob recently finished filming their first big budget video, for their lead single “Easy†featuring rising dancehall star Munga. So with goals accomplished and many more to be fulfilled Black Mob intends on being considered one of the best ever to come out of Canada, if not North America.
