Collective Efforts emerged onto the Atlanta underground hip-hop scene in 2002 from the ashes of the acclaimed hip-hop group Live On Arrival, and garnered critical praise in 2003 with their debut album, Visions Of Things To Come. Merging the skills of MCs Ben Hameen, J-Mil and Bambu de Asiatic, Collective Efforts' positive, powerful message sets them apart from the majority of hip-hop currently coming out of the south, and appeals to fans of both “mainstream” pop, rap, and R&B fans as well as aficionados of underground, conscious hip-hop.
Four years and three well-received albums later, the group has expanded its collective effort to include a backing band of solid musicians. Although first touted as guest members of the group, the energy and synergy between the original four and the five new musicians was unmistakable from the very first show, and soon were incorporated as full time members of Collective Efforts.
Currently in the studio working on several new tracks with the new band, as well as a remix album, Collective Efforts continues to be of underground hip-hop's most talked about acts.
The Atlanta-based group toured the US in 2005 with Sound Tribe Sector 9 and has performed with the likes of Goodie Mob, Aceyalone, and Count Bass D, as well as playing on several festival bills with the likes of Lyrics Born, RJD2, Arrested Development, Digable Planets and The Roots. In 2007, CE was asked to play at several festivals including A3C Independent Hip-Hop Festival, RE: Generation, and the Echo Project, which resulted in an article on spin.com lauding the group’s performance.
