Heiro Ya'll!

Hieroglyphics, also known as the Hieroglyphics Crew and Hiero, are an underground hip hop collective based in Oakland, California. The group was founded in the early 90s by incredible lyricist Del tha Funkee Homosapien.

The Hieroglyphics crew are definitely hip hop visionaries, combining fundamentally sound deliveries of verse and intelligent lyrical content with smooth, original and sometimes jazzy/funky beats and samples.

Since their beginning, Hieroglyphics have amassed a dedicated following of die-hard fans largely through their live concerts, pod-casts (Hierocasts), and promotion through their popular website. It also helped that their sound spreads like the plague; as soon as one person hears it, they can’t help but pass it on to someone else.

These guys can flow.

Hiero is also known for its ubiquitous, three-eyed, straight-lipped face logo that figures prominently on their albums, website, stickers, and clothing.
