NATIVE NUTTZ





Hailing from Atlanta (GA), Native Nuttz consisted of 2 members : Leemil Edmond a.k.a Dureya and Joseph Davis a.k.a Joey Jo. They met together at Osborne High School in Smyrna (GA). 

 One album "The Nativez Are Restless" released on CD & Tape and one twelve inches "Skin Flower / 40 Oz. Of Funk" will certainly be the only physical copies you can find from this group. Both released in 1994 on Down Payment Records and everything produced by Aldrin Davis a.k.a Dj Toomp.

According to one of their friend Maestro Lungs, a second album has been recorded in 1997 and the production was done by the unofficial third member Mr. Piper who also appeared on the track "Rock Rock On" from the first album. 






I'd like to give this unreleased album a listen especially if it is as the same quality as the first one... We could hope that one day It will see the light of day !
They didn't really split after that. They made music with a group called Bad Blood but everything ended for Dureya on October 2010 due to law problems. 







Props to Damon Long, Mr Pipper and Big Up to Dureya, stay strong !
