I’m sorry that it’s been a while, but Things
have really started to take off for us here
at the Ice Factory and its been busy 28
hours a day 9 days a week. NBA ALL Star
Weekend was crazy. It caught me off guard
but we were ready for it. Shot blocks were
the sculptures of choice but that was only for
Friday night. Saturday afternoon was a live
performance at End Zone Fashion. Getting

into different neighborhoods. But when I
rolled into 3rd ward on my way to End Zone.

open like a Lamborghini. Every female I came
across was big-assed and Hoochied out.
(my favorite). When we arrived to the spot,
I think we were the only token Mexicans in
sight. We rolled out 300 pounds of ice and
rocked a piece for the crowd. They loved it so
much; they wanted another one for Sunday
night at MIDNIGHT. so we rock that party
and roll out to our other night club spots to
deliver some more ice. Sunday rolls around
and I had a prior involvement with this bridal
show that was lame. All the brides were
red neck white trash. I know this because

CREW 54
Loud, Live, and going straight to tha’ top
By: Black Mamba
Loud, Live, and going straight to tha’ top! M.O.S. (Master of Self) and G-Christ bring you a “SHOW” and a half when you
experience them live From performances in big girl clubs to a regular venues, Crew 54 is pure raw entertainment! Beyond
their performance they truly support the culture. Anyone playing before or after them they’re in the front row getting’ krunktastic like they’re some groupies! Killeen, TX bread something beautiful this time folks! Don’t mess with this movement
SUCKAS!
why the name crew 54?
We chose the name Crew 54 because we’re out of
the 254. There’s no really deep descriptive
meaning behind it.
how did ya’ll meet up?
G-Christ: Well it’s funny because I was working
with this other group and I saw m.o.s. at this show
and he was really doin’ his thang with the m7
movement. I later found him on myspace and we
started chit-chatin’ and it turns out he lives right
around the corner from me. We soon met up and it
was on and poppin!
what motivates
ya’ll to grind soo hard?
Rock 3 like its 300 and rock 300 like its 3. When we go to a show we perform like it’s our last show!
You’d be surprised how much people talk, even the people that don’t show love.
recently you did a track with producer qenetic
storm, do you plan to work with him again?
Already! Qenetic Storm blessed us with the Titan track and when we received
it we were like, lets do this track right now! So, we will most definitely be
contacting him again.
how was that black sheep show?
It was definitely a show and prove show. This was our time to show everyone
that didn’t come out to our smaller shows we can rock it! And a lot of people
we’re showin’ mad love! People we’re screaming like we were the main act
and that meant a lot to us! It was definitely a love-love situation.
what mc’s do you plan to work with?
Ike, Poise, Broke Bread, Meridian Prime, Mark Twain, M7 Movement,
and some Kats out of the Dallas area.
what’s it like playin’ at the big girl clubs?
Man….It was an experience becuase you got the main crowd 30 and
over on some grown folk ish. But we still rocked it like it was a regular hip-hop
show. The funny thing is, that people from the club are still hittin’ us up to come back!
So yeah, we love our big women.
who would you like to thank?
Everyone who listen’s to our music, my peeps from NYC, the U.K, our Texas fans,
our family and all the producers.
