Black Knights (The Rugged Monk, Crisis The Sharpshoota) are a hip-hop duo hailing from Compton and Long Beach
respectively. One of the many Wu-affiliates to debut on the Wu-Tang Killa Bees: The Swarm compilation, this Californian group
was originally associated with the group North Star (also from California) with whom they recorded as Black Knights Of The
North Star. However, the groups have since separated. The group originally consisted of Crisis(The Sharp Shoota), Doc Doom,
The Rugged Monk and Holocaust, however Holocaust has since left the group to concentrate on his solo recordings (he has also
changed his name to Warcloud). In 2001, the Black Knights released their debut album in only promo form Every Night Is A
Black Knight with limited distribution, and also reunited with North Star for the closing song (titled "Black Knights Of The North
Star") on North Star's debut album. In 2005, they re-released their debut to worldwide distribution through
CHAMBERMUSIK.com. Member Doc Doom was shot and killed in Compton CA on February 11, 2007. A compilation album of old
and new material appeared in 2010. Their song "Caught up" was in the 2007 anime TV series Afro Samurai in episode 3 with
slightly different beats & added violin than the original mix.
Black Knights released The Medieval Chamber produced by John Frusciante on January 14, 2014. « hide |
