Choong formed out of long-time friendships as the Family grew up on streets of London. Their music blurs the lines between hip hop, R&B and soul with different members of the crew taking on the rapping and singing duties –

Afix 'the intellectual' and Nutz P 'the comedian' are the rappers, HT is the singer and 'sweet boy' Scandal alternates between the two. They've got bars for days and their lyrics are unpredictable - their subject matter varies wildly between gritty depictions of growing up in grimy housing estates to light-hearted, feel-good, shake-a-leg soul sessions.
 
The UK's number 1 hip hop group opened for The Game at his recent concert at the Milton Keynes Empire. Choong Family pulled up to the venue in ghetto fabulous style in a stretch Hummer jeep and proceeded to rock the house with their staple of hits More Murking, Pain Don’t Stop and the summer smash Fall Back.
 
Choong Family joined the 'Big Dawg' of Hip Hop up in the Radio 1 studios back in August to spit some bars on the Westwood show. Westwood joins a long line of DJs already showing mad love to Choong Family – Jenny Francis, Phoebe One, DJ 279, Masterstepz, Richard Blackwood and Dave VJ from Choice FM, Ras Kwame, Hot Sound and Jason & Iyare of 1Xtra, Shortee Blitz & Big Ted of Kiss FM are all backing Choong to the fullest.
