The New Jersey Super Crew originally included Apache (R.I.P.), Double J, Lord Alibaski, Lakim Shabazz, Latee, Queen Latifah, Shakim C, Chill Rob G and others (not all featured). Flavor Unit was loosely linked with Lord Finesse and D.I.T.C. and Gangstarr in the early days, and the Unit went on to manage and release on Flavor Unit Records several big groups in the early 90's such as Black Sheep, Freddie Foxxx, The Almighty RSO, Nikki D & Channel Live. Anyone who knows anything about late 80's Hip-Hop know Mark The 45 King produced & remixed many of the Underground hits, was on a par with Marley Marl and Herb Luv Bug Azor. The Unit MC's had a lot of hits!
