When the west coast was celebrating studio-crafted and images of gangsta rap, Jurassic 5 brought up more spiritual, everyday themes and did so by refashioning hip hop's classic funk and soul roots.
Jurassic5 called it quits in 2007, and if the hip-hop act's catalog isn't exactly old enough to be found encased in amber, there's been little noise on the group since its breakup. It's OK, for instance, to have been completely surprised to see Jurassic 5 near the top of the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival lineup released last week.
The
reunion -- or "rebirth" as DJ Nu-Mark is calling it -- is
so new that Jurassic 5 has yet to even rehearse for its dates in the
desert city of Indio. But no pressure, Jurassic 5 is only one of the
top-billed hip-hop acts for the festival, set for the weekends of
April 12 and April 19.
"We
talked about what's going to transpire at Coachella," says
Nu-Mark, having just returned to L.A. after promoting his latest
project “Broken Sunlight
"
. We're slowly getting the gears turning. It's one step at a time."
