The LBC Crew (Long Beach Crip Crew) were a short-lived collective of Long Beach-based rappers. The group consisted of Techniec, Bad Azz and Lil’ C-Style, although Tray Deee and So Sentrelle made significant contributions as well.They were the first act to be executively-produced by Snoop Dogg.
During 1995/1996 the LBC Crew recorded an album called “Haven’t U Heard? We Givin’ Bacc 2 The Hood”, although it was never released. The album was produced by well known beat makers like DJ Pooh, Soopafly, LT Hutton, Daz Dillinger and Sam Sneed amongst others. The group’s only official release was their single, “Beware Of My Crew”, from the A Thin Line Between Love and Hate soundtrack. They were also prominently featured on Snoop Dogg’s second album Tha Doggfather. The group disbanded following the collapse of Death Row. Since then, unreleased material from the group emerged on the underground.
