Their style of Hip-Hop could be describes as electro/hip-hop with influences from baile funk.

Their old logo was an upside-down verion of the Wu-Tang Clan logo and has since been changed twice, first into a swan and later into a winged swan skull. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
