Lateef the Truth Speaker, Headnodic and Gift of Gab form group The Mighty Underdogs, preparing album for October release

Hip-hop group The Mighty Underdogs, comprised of members of Blackalicious, Quannum Projects, and Crown City Rockers, are proud to release their first record on Definitive Jux.... Droppin' Science Fiction. The collaboration also features contributions from such luminaries as DJ Shadow, Mr. Lif, Damian "JR Gong" Marley, and MF Doom, among others. Droppin'..'s other-worldly atmosphere is one in which monsters have gun fights in old western towns, identities are kept secret as a principle, and not all super heroes' intentions are what they seem. The release date is October 14, 2008, and they have a tour supporting friends DJ Shadow and Cut Chemist in July. See below for dates.
