The Fearless Four (also known as Fearless 4 and Fearless Four) is an old school hip hop group from Harlem, New York, best known for its 1982 single "Rockin' It",[1] which was based on the Kraftwerk track "The Man-Machine" and was featured in the 1983 documentary Style Wars. Originally, the Fearless Four was a two-member group called the Houserockers Crew. Later, it reappeared as a six-member group consisting of the Great Peso, Devastating Tito, Mighty Mike C, Krazy Eddie, DLB, and Master OC. In 1983, the group collaborated with rapper Kurtis Blow to produce the single "Problems of the World." It was the first crew to be signed to a major label, Elektra Records.[2] The group only released one studio album, Creepin' up on Ya, which was released in 1994.
