Their influential lyrics combine the harsh realities of 1990s New York City life with a unique mythology that blends martial arts culture, creating a profound impact on hip-hop culture and the broader music industry.The Final Chamber tour is billed as a farewell-era victory lap, featuring a career-spanning set that includes classics like “Protect Ya Neck,” “C.R.E.A.M.,” and “Gravel Pit,” as well as deep cuts and live debuts of rarely performed songs.
