Jurassic 5 was an American alternative hip hop group formed in 1993 by rappers Chali 2na, Akil, Zaakir, Mark 7even, and disc jockeys DJ Nu-Mark and Cut Chemist. The group broke up in 2007.

History

Jurassic 5 came together from two separate crews, the Rebels of Rhythm and Unity Committee. The group formed at the Los Angeles, California health store the Good Life Cafe, where they performed at the open mic nights along with Good Life regulars such as Freestyle Fellowship, Abstract Rude, and many others. According to Cut Chemist, "The Good Life was a renaissance period in hip hop."

Jurassic 5 released their first record, Jurassic 5 EP, in 1997. The record cemented their position in the 1990s alternative hip hop movement, alongside artists such as Company Flow, Black Star and Kool Keith. The EP was later repackaged with additional tracks and released in December 1998 as the band's full-length debut album, entitled Jurassic 5 LP. The tracks hearkened back to the attitude of New York's Native Tongues Posse, which included De La Soul, the Jungle Brothers and A Tribe Called Quest. The song "Concrete Schoolyard", and the album provided the troupe with a Top 40 single when it reached number 35 in November 1998.

In 1999, Jurassic 5 signed to Interscope Records, who re-released the Jurassic 5 EP. This was followed by their second album (their first on a major label), Quality Control.

In 2003, they released their third album, Power In Numbers, which was followed by touring with the newly-revived Lollapalooza festival in summer 2003.

Jurassic 5 toured without Cut Chemist, who left the group to pursue a solo career. The remaining 5 members released their fourth album, Feedback, on July 25, 2006. The song "In The House" was included in the videogame NBA Live 06.

The group split in February 2007. The reason for the split was unclear; however member Soup (AKA Zaakir) had this to say: "I don't want to sit here and fake around with it - we're not seeing eye-to-eye right now... I'd like to keep it going, but you can't force grown men to do what they don't want to do."

In 2009, Jurassic 5 alumni Zaakir and Mark 7even formed the hip hop group Portable Payback. In 2009 Akil the MC founded the L.A. Unified Skill District.
