The Boogiemonsters are an American rap group formed when New Yorkers Vex and Mondo met Jamaica-born brothers Yodared and Myntric at Virginia State University. Boogiemonsters began rapping at shows around campus and, after winning first place at Howard University's famous Hip-Hop Convention, they recorded a demo and began shopping it around New York. Pendulum/EMI signed the four MCs and, in 1993, released Riders of the Storm: The Underwater Album. (source-John Bush, All Music Guide)
After the release of the first album, the group became a duo for unknown reasons with the departure of Yodared and Myntric. Pendulum Records ceased operation and EMI was the sole record company for the 'monsters second album. The Boogiemonsters second album God Sound (a darker, more mature, and hardcore recording), was released in 1997. After that, appearances were sporadic on compilations and 12 inch singles. The present status of the group is unknown.
