Travvy Trav, one of the older members of the group, searched for one of the "dopest" MC's in Long Beach and found Domino, who attended Millikan High School.
Perfection recruited Domino and bought a Roland 808 drum machine to start making demos in the garage with the intention of securing a record deal.
Foesum (slang for "foursome") had more street appeal and consisted of four members: T-Dubb, Wayniac, MNM and DJ Glaze.
Songs that were recorded but not released included "Ridin' High" (re-recorded on the Twinz album), "Point of No Return", "Knick Knack Patty Wack" ,"Ain't No Fun" (featuring Kid Frost), "Much Love" and MNM's "Chrome To The Dome".
With little possibility of a record deal, Foesum was inactive for about a year, but, in 1992, Wayniac was approached by Warren G who needed help writing his album Regulate...G Funk Era.
It caught the ear of Eazy E and the hip hop entrepreneur Kevin Mitchell in New York who was able to make deals with Big Beat/Atlantic and Tommy Boy Records.
