The Crash Crew has been played on NTS shows including Annabel Fraser, with High Power Rap first played on 14 June 2018.

In 1977 a group of friends began rapping and giving performances at the neighborhood playgrounds. Mike C worked in a recording studio and was able to get the crew there to record. On their way to the studio they wrote the lyrics to the song that turned into the hip hop classic "High Powered Rap." They pressed the records themselves and sold them out of their trunks right to their fans. Unfortunately. someone at Sugar Hill Records heard the song and gave it to Grandmaster Flash and The Furious Five to perform. This caused some bad blood between the two groups for a time. Thankfully, The Crash Crew signed on to Sugar Hill Records and recorded several of hip-hops most classic tracks. EK Mike C lives in NY and works for the transit system. Barry works as a security guard at the Nation's Capitol. La Shubee is the assistant director at NYU food services. A new release of their singles was released this in 2000.
