Solo Careers
In 1997 the crew also included Cruz Cordero, EarthQuake

This was short lived, in 2000 Cruz Cordero and Enoch left.
The latter pursues a solo career as Enock. Tru-Life also
left in 2000, but shortly afterwards reconciled with the
crew. EarthQuake now works for their CMR label, which stands
for Cross Movement Records.

streetministry. But the crew is ready to retire and make
room for other artists like Flame, Everyday process, Da
TRUTH, and JR.
