" Cash Crew really started off in 85, 86. The crew was Champain, Flex from Mighty Ethnicz and Trim there was also a beat boxer called Munch. A little later Dj.Loose joined he was already famous as one of the hottest D.Js around.Their first tune that came out was in 1987 it was on a small label called Vinyl Lab. The track was entitled Microphone Maniacs which got a lot of publicity and positive reviews. The following year the group moved to Vinyl Solution, a company based on the Portobello road with a record shop in the basement.. They then released You Can't Stop This. This received a very warm reception and established the boys as one of the main names in British Hip Hop scene.In 1989 the group released a 12" called One Decade, this was important because it celebrated ten years of hip-hop in Ladbroke Grove. Cash Crew then got signed to virgin records the first song to be released was Green Grass and Ghetto Circumstances. Green Grass portrays the deep thought and intelligence of the group. Green Grass was a track tackling the problems of global warming. After this they released their first album entitled Will It Make My Brown Eyes Blue? This album received rave reviews in the hip hop scene. But after that album their subsidiary of virgin went under so they lost their deal.The boys went on to record on their own label Street Ministry. The first release on their own label was called Anything Can Happen this was an EP. a video was made for the main track Can You Dig It this featured Lay Low's finest Flex, Dee, Mc. Ni and Sidewinder. This got the group a lot of airplay and the buzz on the crew was at its peak.The group have also performed alongside the Wu Tang Clan, Gangstarr, Leaders of the New school ft Busta rhymes, Digital Underground and many more.As a result of the reaction from this EP Cash Crew were signed to a subsidiary of BMG France called "Disques Vogue" this was in 1996.
