<a href="spotify:artist:3ho167y1Ac7ANj2qkbJUCJ">Boot Camp Clik</a> affiliates Heltah Skeltah delivered a celebrated debut album, Nocturnal (1996), but struggled to follow through with subsequent output as their reputation simmered despite a fine follow-up, Magnum Force (1998). The Brooklyn duo of Ruck and <a href="spotify:artist:58zHLr1IOAaAHCo0ZTd5v9">Rock</a> began as two-thirds of the Fab Five along with <a href="spotify:artist:73h5znw4QchoWo2FJXBvp5">O.G.C.</a> (<a href="spotify:artist:73h5znw4QchoWo2FJXBvp5">the Originoo Gunn Clappaz</a>) and together scored an underground hit with "Leflaur Leflah Eshkoshka." The group split in 1996 to record solo albums for <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Duck+Down+Records%22">Duck Down Records</a>, Heltah Skeltah's Nocturnal and <a href="spotify:artist:73h5znw4QchoWo2FJXBvp5">O.G.C.</a>'s Da Storm. Of the two, Heltah Skeltah's garnered the most acclaim, and the duo thus became a small underground sensation, appreciated largely for their vocally inventive yet strictly hardcore style. Their contributions to <a href="spotify:artist:3ho167y1Ac7ANj2qkbJUCJ">the Boot Camp Clik</a>'s For the People (1997) furthered the acclaim, but by the time Heltah Skeltah returned with their follow-up, Magnum Force (1998), the hype had died down, and the album unfortunately met a mediocre acceptance, partly because the duo toned down their hardcore posturing. Following this minor disappointment, Heltah Skeltah maintained a low profile and were not invited to join the long-awaited <a href="spotify:artist:3ho167y1Ac7ANj2qkbJUCJ">Boot Camp Clik</a> follow-up, The Chosen Few (2002). ~ Jason Birchmeier, Rovi
