The Pharcyde is an alternative hip hop group, formed in 1989, from South Central Los Angeles. The group is perhaps best known for the hit singles "Drop", "Passin' Me By" and "Runnin'", as well as their first album, Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde (1992). Pharcyde group members Slimkid3, Bootie Brown, and Imani hired a manager, Paul Stewart, who had worked for Cypress Hill, De La Soul, and House of Pain. Mike Ross of Delicious Vinyl; who heard the demo, signed the label in the summer of 1991. They were then featured on Brand New Heavies's album Heavy Rhyme Experience, Vol. 1, on the song "Soul Flower", released by Delicious Vinyl in 1992.
