The Pack was a hip hop group formed in
Wolfpack Muzik Vol. 2.[2][3] The Pack expanded their fanbase and eventually got signed to a major label, when Too Short signed The Pack to his Jive Records-distributed label Up All Nite Records. The Pack is usually known for their skateboard raps and the sexually explicit content of many of their songs. The group is best known for the track "Vans". The Pack has also collaborated with musicians such as Soulja Boy, Wiz Khalifa, Dev, and the Cataracs

Music career
Skateboards 2 Scrapers EP and Based Boys (2006–2008)
Soon after, the Pack created 2006's sneaker anthem "Vans" and released it via their Myspace page. The song was heard by veteran Oakland rapper
Zomba Label Group due to the album's lackluster sales. The Pack signed with Los Angeles-based Indie Pop which is home to other artists such as the Cataracs, Dev, and Bobby Brackins. In November 2010, Lil B and Young L were featured on the cover of the publication The FADER, in its 71st issue.[8]
Wolfpack Party (2009–2010)
The Pack began recording again throughout 2009. They released the mixtape The Pack Is Back in December 2009, their first set of material in a year.[9] Their second studio album, Wolfpack Party, was released on August 24, 2010[10] and includes the title track which was produced by the Cataracs and released as a single.
