Motown Rage

The group toured nationwide with several bands including Kid Rock, Insane Clown Posse, and Pantera.

After the tour, Ray and 2Def decided to create another band that would perform a genre they called "Rap and Roll" or "Gangster Metal"."

After touring with the group Mob Mentality, Ray and 2Def approached MC Sadistic to provide lead vocals for their new band.

They chose Sadistic because he had an understanding of the hip hop scene from touring with multiple hip hop groups such as Insane Clown Posse, Mystikal, Onyx, Das Efx, Eminem, and House of Krazees.

After agreeing to join the group, the trio recruited Burn-1 as the fourth member and called their band Motown Rage after their home town of Detroit.
