Hieroglyphics, also known as the Hieroglyphics Crew and Hiero, is an American underground hip hop collective based in Oakland, California. The collective was founded in the early-1990s by rapper Del the Funky Homosapien. The collective is currently composed of rappers Del the Funky Homosapien, Casual, Pep Love, producer/manager Domino, DJ Toure, and the four individual members of the rap group Souls of Mischief: Phesto, A-Plus, Opio, and Tajai. The Hieroglyphics combine fundamentally sound deliveries and lyrical content with original and sometimes jazzy or funky beats and samples. Since their inception, Hieroglyphics have found a following largely through their live concerts, podcasts ("Hierocasts"), and promotion through their website. The collective uses a three-eyed, straight-lipped face logo that figures prominently on their albums, website, stickers, and clothing. ==History== As a collective, the Hieroglyphics have released three studio albums: ''3rd Eye Vision'' in 1998, ''Full Circle'' in 2003, and ''The Kitchen'' in 2013. In 2005, the collective released a live DVD and accompanying CD of the Hiero's 2003 ''Full Circle Tour''. The collective has also released five compilation albums: ''Hieroglyphics B-Sides'' and ''Hieroglyphics Oldies, Vol. I'' in 1997, ''Hieroglyphics Oldies, Vol. II'' in 1998, ''The Building'' in 2004, ''The Corner'' in 2005, and most recently, ''Over Time'', in March 2007. Individual members of the collective have also released albums of their own, either through solo projects or outside group projects. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hieroglyphics (group)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
