Detromental was originally a five member group put together by Page1 in 1998. Each member grew up along 7 Mile. Throughout the years the group has changed. Present day Detromental is comprised of three members. O.Z., A-3, and new member Shifty McVay. The attitudes of the group reflect the name (Detroit-mentality).
As true rappers do, all the members of Detromental share their own experiences in their own words as they express their respective feelings and opinions about topics such as life on the streets, relationships, etc…
The combination of point blank lyrics and their Midwest style of production which is flavored with a touch of East Coast, West Coast, and Dirty South is what makes their music so powerful.
The creation of Detromental’s beats is from the studio of Mag The Po Boy Productions (Magnum), as well as several of Detroit’s best producers, giving Detromental the sound that demands recognition worldwide!
On stage, the energy from Detromental is in itself a refreshing change. They love performing live and are seasoned professionals when it comes to business. Detroit area live performances include I-Rock, Hot Rock, Bullfrog, and Alvin’s. Detromental has also performed live at various venues across the country sharing the stage with some of the nation’s hottest acts. Their self-titled debut single was played to rave reviews on Spike TV during the Super Bowl.
