STORY
Underground golden age hip hop group from New Rochelle, NY made up of DJ Swinn and MCs Dread One, Kev & Roberto.
The Rough House Survivers only released officially one album, "Straight From The Soul", back in 1992 on Relativity. This album is a slept-on classic, blessed with the production work of legendary producer Tony Dofat. New Rochelle's legendary neighbors also appears on this gem as Grand Puba produces a track & Sadat-X is featured on another one. C.L. Smooth also appears on another song. But if the presence of such legendary figures could have totally overshadowed the performance of the quartet, that's not the case right here as they definitely know how to use a mic...
The Rough House Survivers would have deserved a sophomore album but "Survival Of The Fittest", which featured prods by Tony Dofat, Buckwild or Rockwilder and was due to come out on MCA Records, was never released officially so the group never made it out the 90's underground...
