House of Pain
一曲“JUMP AROUND”使说唱团体HOUSE OF PAIN一夜之间红透了全美国,直到现在在很多CLUB或夜店里你依然能够这首另人血迈膨胀的歌曲。HOUSE OF PAIN 有EVERLAST,DANNYBOY,DJ LETHAL组成。   最早House Of Pain在一家俱乐部演出的时候结识了当时非常红的说唱明星ICE-T,ICE-T对他们的歌曲非常的感兴趣,况且当时的白人说唱团体真的是少之又少。所以ICE-T直接把他们推荐到了华纳唱片,在签约没多久之后,House Of Pain转投当时非常有名气的HIPHOP唱片公司TOMMY BOY RECORES,并发行了第一张同名专辑,其中就有名躁一时的“JUMP AROUND”这张专辑的成功使HOUSE OF PAIN一下成为顶级HIPHOP团体。但是成功给他们带来的一些付面的东西严重的影响了HOUSE OF PAIN的发展,主唱EVERLAST不断的在公共场合酗酒闹事,并在媒体上表示他不会改变这些恶习。所以导致很多歌迷对HOUSE OF PAIN的态度急转直下。之后他们又在TOMMY BOY旗下发行了2张正式的专辑。但都没有超越“JUMP AROUND”。而团体内部也发生人员上的矛盾。1998年HOUSE OF PAIN正式宣布解散,EVERLAST但是的他的恶习继续前行,而DJ LETHAL则参加了后期著名的说唱金属团体LIMP BIZKIT。   HOUSE OF PAIN是90年代初期少有的优秀HIPHOP团体,他们证明了HIPHOP并不是黑人才能玩的音乐。

Jump Around, an impossibly infectious and catchy single, instantly elevated House of Pain from an unknown white hip-hop group to near-stars when it became a massive crossover hit in 1992. It made the band and it also broke the band, consigning them to the level of one-hit wonders. House of Pain continued to release records after their eponymous 1992 debut and Jump Around, yet none of them gained much attention, partially because of the bands self-consciously loutish behavior. Led by rapper Everlast, the group celebrated their Irish-American heritage by wearing green, drinking prodigious amounts of beer, and swearing constantly. It certainly earned them attention at the outset, particularly when it was tied to a single like Jump Around, but the bottom quickly fell out of their career. The groups second album, 1994s Same as It Ever Was, went gold, but it failed to generate a hit single, and by the time of 1996s Truth Crushed to Earth Shall Rise Again, the band had been forgotten.
Everlast (born Erik Schrody, August 18, 1969) became fascinated by hip-hop while he was in high school, eventually becoming part of Ice-Ts Rhyme Syndicate. His association with Ice-T led to a contract with Warner Bros., who released his debut album, Forever Everlasting, in 1990. After the record bombed, Everlast formed House of Pain with his high school friend Danny Boy (born Daniel OConnor) and DJ Lethal (born Leor DiMant), a Latvian immigrant. Released on Tommy Boy Records, the groups eponymous 1992 debut was co-produced by Muggs, who masterminded Cypress Hills groundbreaking debut. Muggs gave Jump Around its distinctive, incessant beat, which merged a deep bass groove with drum loops and Public Enemy-styled sirens. On the back of Kris Kross spring hit Jump, Jump Around became a huge hit in the summer of 1992, peaking at number three on the pop charts. Both the singles video and the remainder of House of Pain celebrated the groups Irish heritage in a tongue-in-cheek fashion that quickly became shtick. Throughout their 1993 tour, the group ran into trouble with promoters and the law, culminating in Everlasts March arrest for possessing an unregistered, unloaded pistol at Kennedy Airport. He was sentenced to community service, and later that year, the group began work on their second album.
Like its predecessor, 1994s Same as It Ever Was was produced by Muggs. Upon its summer release, the record was greeted with surprisingly strong reviews and sales, debuting at number 12 on the charts. However, the sales quickly slowed as On Point failed to become a hit. Most of the next two years were spent in seclusion, and the group returned in the fall of 1996 with Truth Crushed to Earth Shall Rise Again, a record that was ignored by both the press and the public. Everlast returned in 1998 as a solo act, and gained critical acclaim for his debut, Whitey Ford Sings the Blues.
