Editor's note

xRepresentx, the Brooklyn hip-hop group from the '90s.

A raw, confrontational underground act that became a cult favorite.

For a quick sense of them, put on "By My Own Means" and "Get Something." That's the sound.

xRepresentx mattered because they captured a certain late-'90s Brooklyn hip-hop energy that wasn't polished for radio. A track like "By My Own Means" from their 1999 debut Independent As Fuck has that direct, unvarnished quality people still talk about. Their music, with songs like "Written In Blood," felt like a statement from a specific time and place.

They formed in Brooklyn in 1996 and put out three albums between 1999 and 2004, starting with Independent As Fuck. Over time, they shifted from a working group to one of those acts people discovered later, becoming a cult favorite in certain hip-hop circles.

Archive material and source history

xRepresentx formed in Brooklyn in 1996, a hip-hop group that put out a few albums in the late '90s and early 2000s. Their debut was called Independent As Fuck in 1999, followed by The X-Files in 2001 and Shadowboxin' in 2004. The track "By My Own Means" came out around that first album and became something people remembered.

Their music had a certain raw quality, with lyrics that could feel confrontational or direct depending on who was listening. Songs like "Written In Blood" and "If Only Words Could Kill" give you an idea of the tone. They weren't really a mainstream act, more of an underground thing that developed a following.

Over time, xRepresentx became one of those groups that people discovered later, a cult favorite in certain hip-hop circles. You can still find their albums if you look, and tracks like "Get Something" and "Infection" show what they were doing back then.
