Onyx
Onyx is a cult American rap group from Queens, New York, formed in the early 1990s and notably composed of Fredro Starr, Sticky Fingaz and Sonny Seeza. Pioneers of hardcore rap, they carved out a reputation with a raw, jittery and explosive style—aggressive flows, chanted hooks and an almost riotous energy. They achieved massive success with their album Bacdafucup (1993), led by the anthem 'Slam', an iconic track that introduced the mosh‑pit aesthetic to hip‑hop and became a worldwide phenomenon. Their sound captures the gritty essence of New York, blending urban rage, dark humor and stage intensity, and continues to influence generations of artists and hardcore rap fans.
