This was followed by their second album (their first on a major label), Quality Control.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." (The documentary This is The Life [2008], directed by original Good Life MC Ava DuVernay of Figures of Speech, features Chali 2na and Cut Chemist.) They 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 harkened back to the old school 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 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 have recorded and have released their fourth album, Feedback, on July 25, 2006.
Jurassic 5 split in February 2007. The reason for the split was unclear; however member soup had to say "I don't want to sit here and fake around with it - we're not seeing eye-to-eye right now."
