The leader of the group was MC Eiht who would later become a solo artist and The Unknown DJ. * * * * * * *C.M.W. included rappers MC Eiht and MC Chill, turnablist Ant Capone but was later replaced by DJ Mike T and producer DJ Slip. The Unknown DJ was also a producer for the group however not officially a member. Their first three albums It's a Compton Thang, Straight Checkn 'Em and Music to Driveby were produced by DJ Slip and The Unknown DJ, who produced both Electro funk tracks as well as Ice T's classic gangsta song "6 In the Morning". Despite producing many tracks. MC Chill was an original member of C.M.W. at the time of their first album It's a Compton Thang, but was sentenced to prison in 1991 before Straight Checkn 'Em was released. He was released out of prison in 1994.* * * * During the time in prison he missed C.M.W.'s two biggest succéed albums "Straight Checkn 'Em" and "Music to Driveby", each of included songs like "Hood Took Me Under", "Def Wish", "Straight Up Menace" and "Growin' Up in tha Hood". After 3 years behind bars MC Chill didn't have the chance to return to the group as they broke up following Music to Driveby. Instead Chill decided to work with MC Ren and MC Eiht for their solo albums. In 2000, the group joined forces again and released "Represent". They are known especially for their slow, often melancholic raps, using samples from seventies soul and funk records such as "Joy" by Isaac Hayes and hit songs like Ice Cube's "It Was a Good Day". MC Eiht is pursuing his solo career, while DJ Slip is mainly working for the new West Coast label IV Life Records.* * * * * * Additionally, C.M.W. are set for a reunion which will feature on DJ Slip's next album "The Minority Report". In 2004 Hood Took Me Under appeared on the popular videogame Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, and was played on the West Coast hip hop radio station Radio Los Santos. Ant Capone was supposed to be a member of the group while they released It's a Compton Thang, but was later fired from the group and replaced by DJ Mike T and never appeared on their debut album. In 2006 the group released a fifth studio album called, Music to Gang Bang which didn't sell well.
