The UMC’s was an American hip-hop duo from the borough of Staten Island in New York City.
The group was composed of Hass G and Kool Kim, who released the critically acclaimed, full-length album Fruits of Nature in 1991, which garnered chart success with the duo’s #1 Billboard Hot Rap Single “Blue Cheese” and #2 Hot Rap Single “One To Grow On.” In 1994, the duo released its sophomore album, Unleashed[1] but split up soon after.
Since the group’s break-up, Hass-G has focused on producing music, most notably garnering a #1 hit for Lil Kim featuring 50 Cent, with “The Magic Stick.” Kool Kim reinvented himself as the controversial underground emcee NYOIL.

Who remembers when Martin Lawrence had a poster of their album cover on his living room wall on the Martin show. I thought I was so cool for knowing who they were.
They rocked some fly AIR MAX for the album cover too!
I'm glad my dad got me into old school hip hop. A lot of hip hop today is trash
Like how they used that tuba in the beat haha
Lil Nas, take note. You betray the heritage. Hip Hop was about positivity.
Most slept on jam ever
Staten island stand up!
The UMCs is one one of the greatest rap duo of all time.. they're legends
