Although it was not fully appreciated at the time of it's 1993 release, Black Moon's Enta da Stage in retrospect encapsulates a turning point in Hip Hop. It all started with members 5ft Accelerator and DJ Evil Dee meeting at Bushwick High School. They formed a duo and called themselves Unique Image, but would soon add Buckshot Shorty from Brownsville (a neighboring section of Brooklyn).
Shortly there after renaming themselves Black Moon (Brothers who Lyrically Act and Combine Kickin Music Out On Nations). DJ Evil Dee and his brother, Mr. Walt, would handle the beats, crediting themselves as da Beatminerz. Pre-production began in the Dewgarde Crib of Hits at Mr. Walt's house. Soon they recorded and released their first single "Who Got da Props?" in 1992. Through the help and exposure of WBLS's DJ Chuck Chillout, the single out of nowhere earned them the 82 spot on the Billboard Top 100 and a record deal with Nervous Records. However, despite the success of their single it would be a year before fans would hear their release.
