Recently bursting on the New Orleans rap scene, The Flame Gang is hotter than a H2 Hummer. Comprised of 9th Ward residents Top, Poppi, Tynee Boo and Red-Eye, the group capitalizes on gritty rap beats and rough pasts to capture the essence of today's Hip-Hop culture. Signed to the Bang'N Record label, the group is produced by Don B., son of Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Dave Bartholomew. Don B. garnered the attention of music critics with his first four albums, including the critically acclaimed "Don B. Compilations". He was also instrumental in helping start the careers of New Orleans-based rappers from the Cash Money and No Limit Records stables. Don B's D.A.R.S. Studio is basically where most New Orleans rappers record or have recorded in the past. "The Flame Gang" recently released a rap version of "My Ding A Ling" which was originally written by the elder Bartholomew.
