Background notes
Archive material and source history
Gene Maltais was part of the duo Gangwar in the early 1990s. Their debut album 'No Mercy' came out in 1992, with the title track 'Gangwar' becoming one of their most recognized songs. The music was often described as gangsta rap, drawing comparisons to artists like N.W.A. and Tupac Shakur.
Maltais faced criticism for lyrics that some felt glorified violence, and his career was marked by legal issues including drug possession and assault charges. He continued releasing music through the 1990s with albums like 'The Last Supper' in 1994 and 'Blood on the Tracks' in 1996.
The duo's lineup included Maltais on vocals and DJ X on turntables. They put out 'Gangwar 2000' in 1999 and later collections like 'The Lost Tapes' in 2003.
