GROUP HISTORY:
 
D.R Clique is a hip-hop group from Hereford Midlands formed in 2004 by friends Small Morris and Monkey Nuts. Small Morris had been making music for a while before joining forces with Monkey Nuts. They started recording music and met up with Nazty and producer/rapper Meth Killah who rap in Spanish/Portuguese and English. This brought something different to the D.R Clique. D.R Clique started making a mixtape called THE DOPE MIXTAPE VOL.1 .
 
They released the mixtape in 2006 and started getting radio play and interviews on BBC Hereford & Worcester and the DJs were soon name checking and loving their music. Club DJs joined the clamour, demanding more from Small Morris and D.R.C. With the DJ'S support they got their 1st recording contract. Small Morris and D.R Clique recorded their album and individual tracks that never got released. They left the company as they didnt feel it was helping the guys. The guys split up leaving Small Morris and Meth Killah in the group.
 
Small Morris went on a solo run releasing My Favourite Song with video getting played on MTV, CHANNEL AKA and STARRZ (TOP 20 REQUESTED ) and getting signed on a solo deal which he released his 2nd single Feeling Me on. Small Morris ended up leaving the company as they didnt really push him with his career and continued recording his debut album independently then Morris and Killah decided to re-form D.R Clique with a new producer, Small Morris lil brother, Divine Compositions. Divine started rapping and soon met up with singer Vocalz who brought more of a Soul driven aspect to the band. They soon met up with Complex and the new D.R Clique was born, and signed to both Candybass Records and  Small Morris own label Greyeagle Recordings.
 
The guys have since done quite afew gigs up and down the country opening for EZ Rollers in Manchester and in London at Cargo opening for Andy C.

With their first/introducing track Money Up and album and mixtape in the making the guys are ready to break through and start pushing music out in 2012. D.R Clique are now releasing their debut E.P called BEFORE and have almost finished their debut album Commentary to Fame which will be out late 2012.
