It’s been 20 years since a new group called Arrested Development burst onto the Gangsta Rap / Hip Hop dominated scene with defiant lyrics of hope.

The world was ready for the change, as Arrested Development became the first ever hip-hop group to receive the Best New Artist Grammy.

The group also took out Best Rap Single Grammy for their anthemic prayer-like hit song, Tennessee.

The hip-hop collective, who have stayed true to their unique brand of message rap, return to Australia to perform their hits including Tennessee, Mr Wendell, People Everyday, Revolution, Ease My Mind and more.

    Arrested Development = gangsta rap?

    It doesn't actually say that at all, it says the scene was dominated by gangsta rap at the time.

  They may have started out in the Gangsta rap era, but would they really be considered Gangsta rap? I always thought they were more along the lines of De La Soul or A Tribe Called Quest.

    Nothing about them was gangsta rap if anything they were the antithesis of rap music at the time preaching peace, love and happiness.

  More like 'Hippy Rap.' They did hold the record for the oldest member of a rap crew ever though, there was a dude who was over 80 at one point.

    a joke is pointless if you have to explain it, thats why they explained it on TV, because there are a lot of dummies.
