About
A loose collective centered around the enigmatic SpaceGhostPurrp, Raider Klan followed in the footsteps of Three 6 Mafia, producing a gritty, macabre brand of Southern hip-hop. Although the crew originated from Purrp's home city of Miami, they've included members from several other cities, including Memphis, Seattle, and Houston, connecting with and recruiting new affiliates via the Internet. The Klan's nearly gothic aesthetic and usage of their own form of hieroglyphics (stylizing their name as RVIDXR KLVN, for example) proved to be influential throughout the hip-hop underground. Aside from Purrp, the collective has included other notable rappers such as Yung Simmie, Xavier Wulf, and future breakout star Denzel Curry, although members frequently came and left, making it unclear who was in the group at any given time, or if the entity still existed. The Klan's output as a group has been scarce, with only 2013's Tales from the Underground and a few mixtapes bearing their name.
