Violadores Del Verso

Latin rap foursome Violadores del Verso, also known as Doble V, got involved in the Spanish hip-hop scene in 1997 after Kase-O (Javier Ibarra) and former members of Bufank and el Aborto de la Música -- Liriko (David Gilaberte), R de Rumba (Rubén Cuevas), and Sho-hai (Sergio Rodríguez, aka Hate) -- decided to create a new project. In 1998, Violadores del Verso released a self-titled EP, sampling jazz and electric funk tunes from the 1970s. Mierda followed, as did their debut album, Genios, mixed in New York by Leo Morris and released by Avoid Records. ~ Drago Bonacich
