Bay area hip hop legends Foreign Legion, consisting of super emcees Prozack Turner and Marc Stretch, have been busy. They have made a solid name since the year 2000 with their now classic debut,"Kidnapper Van: Beats To Rock While Bike Stealing",the critically acclaimed follow up album, "Playtight" in 2002,(both produced by Dj Design)and two solo albums by Prozack Turner. Relentless worlwide touring, recording, and collaborating have made Foreign Legion one of the most respected hip hop crews in the underground. They have played not only in the United States, but in Australia, England, Ireland, Scotland, Germany, Sweden, Switzerland, Czech Republic, Romania, Poland, Croatia, Denmark, and Austria! Doing shows with the likes of Dilated Peoples,Hieroglyphics, Tha Liks, The Beatnuts,Zion I, Jurassic Five, Parliament,Gangstarr and KRS ONE have help craft the high powered stage shows Foreign Legion are known for! "A list" production and lyrical prowess, combined with tales of all night parties, life, pain, love, loss and a passion for making music, have all contributed to the success of Foreign Legion. Having just got back from a very successful European tour in support of the new EP, "The Secret Knock", the boys are back at it in the studio finishing up their third full length as a group, "Night Moves", which will be dropping in early 09!
