The Re-Up Gang was an American hip hop group formed in 2004, in Virginia Beach, Virginia. The group was formed by Pusha T and Malice, brothers and members of Virginia-based hip hop duo Clipse, alongside Philadelphia-based rappers Ab-Liva and Sandman. The Re-Up Gang is perhaps best known for their signature We Got It 4 Cheap mixtape series.
History
The Re-Up Gang was created in early 2004, during
"Everything happens for a reason. We put out the We Got It 4 Cheap series on our own for the streets and that helped keep us visible and build the Re-Up name as an entity ... This time, [our manager]
the Clipse album."[3]
According to an interview with HipHopDX the Sandman aka Sandcannon stated the Re-Up Gang's album had been mishandled. Although there is no animosity between him and the three members, he is now pursuing a solo career. Sandman and Liva still remain in close contact as they always have. The remaining three members are all pursuing solo careers with No Malice releasing his solo titled album Hear Ye Him in August 2013 and with Pusha dropping his critically acclaimed My Name Is My Name album in October 2013. Pusha T was on Kanye's G.O.O.D Music label before leaving the label in 2022 due to Kanye's antisemitic comments, while No Malice has been focused on his new life making music with a new direction.
