DJ TOTALS

Jet Ryda is a member of the money mob.

The Money Mob is a collection of MC's, Producers and singers from the Smethwick area in Birmingham. Formed in 2002, the group was originally called the Zero Tolerance Crew (For short ZTEC or ZTECA pronounced Zee- Teka) The group used to specialise in making garage/grime tracks and having sets on local pirate radio stations. We used to make some hip hop tracks but very rarely. By early 2003 the first ZTEC mixtape was about to hit the road but then our team suffered a major loss. One of the main members of the group Nemesis aka Nemo was shot and killed in Smethwick in Aug 03. This tragedy hit the team hard. Some members of the Money Mob are related to Nemo but this affected all the group as he was like one of our family members anyway. Because of Nemo's death the team had a break from making music until early 2004. Yogo came up with a new name for the Clique "The Money Mob". But because Nemo loved the name ZTEC so much we decided to keep it. On most our tracks you will hear somebody holla out " Money Mob slash ZTECA" or " Money Mob ZTECA". These days the team specialises in making Hip Hop tracks, but because the Money Mob consists of some versatile MC's we are still able to make some of the sickest garage /grime tracks.
