Live Squad was an American hip hop group and production team from Hollis, Queens, New York. The group consisted of brothers Stretch (Randy Walker), Majesty (Christopher Walker) and DJ K-Low. Live Squad debuted in 1988 with the self-produced tracks "Troopin It" and "We Ain't Havin' It" on BQ In Full Effect, a limited 12" EP featuring Percee P and Top Priority. They gained prominence through collaborations, notably with Tupac Shakur. Live Squad released their first single "Murderahh! / Heartless" in 1992 with the help of Ed Lover, host of Yo! MTV Raps. Their hardcore style led to the shelving of a soundtrack due to controversies surrounding their music. In 1994, they contributed to the album, Thug Life: Volume I, under Interscope Records. The group's career was marked by significant collaborations with Tupac Shakur and other notable artists.
