NATIVE GUNS was the duo of California-bred, Filipino MCs KIWI (http://www.myspace.com/kiwi) and BAMBU (http://www.myspace.com/bambumusic), who worked together from 2002-2007. They rocked crowds all over California as well as New York City, Seattle, Chicago, Boston, Florida, and Vancouver with their fearless mix of hard-hitting beats, machine-gun lyricism, and unapologetic critical content.

KIWI, an L.A native who now lives in in the SF Bay Area, has been holding it down for years and released his first full-length project entitled "Writes of Passage: Portraits of a Son Rising" in October of 2003.

BAMBU, originally from the Watts community of Los Angeles, released his debut album "Self Untitled" in April 2002.

Also in the Guns crew is Houston-bred, Oaktown-based DJ Phatrick, who's been holding it down behind them on the ones and twos since Fall 2005.

In September of 2004, the Native Guns released the beat-jacker cult-classic "Stray Bullets Mixtape Vol. 1" CD, followed by their 12" single "Champion" which came out last year. And on May 2nd of 2006, they finally released their long-awaited, highly-anticipated debut album "Barrel Men."

Native Guns officially broke up in spring 2007. However, both Kiwi and Bambu have gone on to continue their solo careers.
