Crash Crew was an early hip-hop group who recorded for Sugar Hill Records. The group, based in New York City, consisted of members DJ Daryll C. (who died in 1999 due to diabetes), G. Man, La Shubee, Barry Bistro, Ek Mike C., and Reggie Reg. According to JayQuan.com, the six met at a talent show sometime in 1977. In 1980, they recorded their first single under the moniker "Disco Dave and the Force of the 5 MC's".[1] The single, "High Powered Rap", was released on Mike & Dave Records. That same year, the group signed to Sugar Hill Records and released several classic singles like "We Wanna Rock", "Breaking Bells", and "On the Radio".

From http://board.oldschoolhiphop.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=918 :
"Whats up family I bumped into my man Reggie Reg of the Crash Crew this morning on 125th street and we said our whats ups to each other and some how our conversation got to a cut that Sugar Hill did not release called M.C. War. It was geared toward trying to raise up some excitment, interest and beef with RUNDMC.
In fact it had the same beat for Walk this way, only 1 or two years before Russell and Rush threw the idea at RUNDMC. Reg told me because they broke away from Sugar Hill it was never released. Well now it is out and he feels he has some explaining to do because Run and them were actually cool and some Crash Crew members didn't want to do it."
