Archive material and source history
Living Legends formed in Oakland in the early 1990s as a collective of emcees, DJs, and producers. The founding members included The Grouch, Eligh, and Aesop Rock, along with DJ Shadow and producer Amp Live. They were part of the city's hip-hop scene during that period.
Their music often dealt with social issues, and tracks like 'Another Day' and 'Black Glass' reflected this approach. The group released three albums: 'The Legends' in 1995, 'The Lost Album' in 1997, and '090608' in 2008. Over time, members like Aesop Rock and DJ Shadow left the collective.
Other members who were part of Living Legends included Kevvy Kev, Luckyiam, and Sunspot Jonz. Their songwriting was collaborative, with each person bringing different elements to the work. The music combined thoughtful lyrics with varied production styles.
