Uptown
Uptown (Korean: 업타운) was a pioneering South Korean hip hop group that formed in 1997. The group's four original members were Chris Jung, Carlos Galvan, Steve Kim and Tasha Reid.
The group underwent several line-up changes during the 90s and disbanded in 2000 following drug charges against Jung, Galvan, and Kim. When Reid left Uptown to pursue a solo career, the group made a comeback without her in 2006 with the album Testimony. Teenage rapper Jessica H. O. joined the group for the album. Jung was the only remaining original member on the group's 2009 album, New Era, which featured new members Maniac, Snacky Chan, and Swings. Uptown has been inactive since its 2010 album Surprise!
