The Streets Background

 

The Streets is an English hip-hop band with Mike Skinner as the leader and instrumentalist. Though Skinner is the sole current member of the band, past members include Kevin Mark Trail, Chris Brown, Laura Vane, Wayne Bennett, and Leo the Lion, among others. These members have lent their vocals and instrumental talent to the group, creating a unique voice and style with each new album and single.

 

The group played for a few years without a label and gathered a few fans here and there. But the real success came when they were picked up in 2001 by the Locked On label. This brought them more exposure, and their first album, Original Pirate Material, was a hit. Critics and fans both enjoyed their first official work together, and the album was nominated for the Mercury Prize in the UK.
