Definitive Jux has the extreme pleasure of announcing the
reissue of Company Flow's seminal full length debut,
Funcrusher Plus. Out of print since 2006, this certified
classic album has been remastered and will be available
worldwide!

Already ahead of its time when originally released in 1997,
Funcrusher Plus is widely recognized as one of the most
influential hip hop albums ever, shattering conventions with
its musical complexity and uncompromising lyricism.
Comprised of producer/MC El-P, MC Bigg Jus, and DJ Mr. Len,
Company Flow's music rejected the conventional hooks and
jazz/funk samples favored at the time, opting instead for
jagged, lo-fi and punishing sonics crowned with
confrontational and highly literate word-play an drhyme
patterns. The group's musical approach and legendary D-I-Y
ethic went on to influence an entire genre for the past
decade. Originally appearing as a self-released vinyl-only
EP in 1995, their music caught the attention of underground
hip hop and alternative music scenes worldwide, eventually
landing them a deal with then unknown NYC hip hop label
Rawkus Reocrds. The release of the full length on Rawkus
signified a new era in hip hop, and soon after the likes of
Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Pharoahe Monche and others followed
suit. Company Flow's attitude and urgent approach gave birth
to a movement that defined a new era within the hip hop
world.
