Arrested Development

Hailing from Atlanta, Georgia, ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT burst onto the music scene in the early 90s with their innovative blend of hip-hop, soul, and afrocentric grooves. Led by the charismatic Speech, this eclectic collective quickly made a name for themselves with their socially conscious lyrics and infectious beats.

Their debut album, "3 Years, 5 Months & 2 Days in the Life Of...", remains a classic of the genre, earning them critical acclaim and a Grammy for Best New Artist in 1993. Tracks like "Tennessee" and "People Everyday" are still staples of hip-hop playlists to this day, showcasing the group's ability to combine thought-provoking messages with irresistible hooks.

But ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT's impact goes beyond just their music. With their signature Afrocentric style and commitment to positive social change, they have inspired a generation of artists to use their platform for good. From their collaborations with Nelson Mandela to their work with various charitable organizations, this group is more than just a band - they are a movement.

Despite their early success, ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT has continued to evolve and push boundaries with each new release. Whether they are exploring new sonic landscapes or delving deeper into social issues, one thing is for sure - this group is always ahead of the curve. With their latest album, "Don't Fight Your Demons", they prove once again that they are not just relics of the past, but a force to be reckoned with in the present.
