I'll be the first to admit I'm a sports dunce; the origin of new-school-meets-old-school So Cal hip-hop trio Pac Div's name flew right over my head like a basketball in gym class. But when the guys start talking video games -- especially old-school games like "Metroid" and "Sonic" -- ah, tres bien, merci, now you are speaking my language. Dudes are even into "Halo." NERD ALERT!
Check out Like, Mibbs, and BeYoung's "The 5" interview to witness true love for gaming... and for sports (Pac Div refers to Pacific Division sports teams, in case I was not alone).
Pac Div, who've opened for Nas and recently released Church League Champions, offer a good old underdog story: rising from church league basketball to the NBA. (And a stint on as a junior college baller). Pac Div's Interests do go beyond sports too -- they're into Eckhart Tolle and Eat, Pray, Love on the lit tip and Radiohead and Flock of Seagulls on the iPod.
Watch Pac Div's new interview, and watch their hypnotic "Mayor" video.
