Freestyle Fellowship is an American hip hop group from Los Angeles, California. It consists of Aceyalone, Myka 9, P.E.A.C.E., and Self Jupiter. They are part of the Project Blowed collective.
Freestyle Fellowship released the debut studio album, To Whom It May Concern..., in 1991. In 1993, the group released the second studio album, Innercity Griots.
Freestyle Fellowship went on hiatus due to the incarceration of Self Jupiter. In 1998, the group reunited to record the Shockadoom EP, which would be released in 2002. The group released Temptations in 2001, and The Promise in 2011.
According to Los Angeles Times, Freestyle Fellowship incorporates "jazz rhythms into its raps, which have the improvisational ebb and flow and the random explosiveness of a jazz solo." In a 1993 interview with Los Angeles Times, the group's member Myka said, "What we are is liberators, liberating rap from its R&B/funk structures--that 4/4 (time) prison."
The group has been described by LA Weekly as "the astral jazz-cracked geniuses of sherm-strafed South Central, rapping with caged bird cadences about sleeping on park benches, biblical books, and gangsta rap carpetbaggers."
