They are definitely one of the groups that have had the biggest impact and influence on the underground Hip-Hop scene of Mexico. DJ Jonta, Simplee, Toxikon, Serko Fuentes and Indho also known as Metodo by some of the group's early fans have once again come together under Mexican Hip-Hop flag ship Caballeros del Plan G.
Caballeros del Plan G, is a group based out of Gomez Palacio, Durango that through out the years has been highlighted as a group that works for the good and development of the Hip-Hop movement and it's culture in Mexico. They have not just taken the music on tour across the country, but have taken the culture into many class rooms and neighborhoods by giving local workshops through out La Comarca Lagunera with the purpose to enrich the local culture.
On the musical level the Caballeros del Plan G or C plan G have worked side by side with many of the biggest names in the Spanish Hip-Hop and urban movement and with some of the most respected producers like Jason Roberts (Cypress Hill, House of Pain, Funkdoobiest) and Toy Hernandez (Calle 13, Control Machete, Sekreto) among others.
In the year 2000 they released their first international hit, a self titled song that crossed all borders, reaching my hands while being a DJ at San Jose State radio (90.5 FM, KSJS, Radio Aztlan). Throughout the years the fans come to know the song as simply as "La Remezcla". In 2002 they released the group's first official album "Abriendo Puertas" which not only created a major buzz for the group all throughout Mexico but helped establish each members own identity as well as giving forth to their solo careers. Since the release of "Abriando Puertas" the group has worked on numerous side projects like Sonidero Nacional, Pato Machete, Indho, 12 Pulgadas, among others.
Now after several years of being silent Caballeros del Plan G have once again come together to release their long awaited follow up album, "Estrategas" putting them back right where they left off in front of radio and Television appearance dropping new classics like "GL Castiga" and "Ella Es" featuring David Rolas, both of which are produced by Jon B of Subliminal Orphans.
