Partners-N-Crime
Biography
Partners-N-Crime is a rap group from New Orleans, Louisiana, made up of Kangol Slim (born Walter Williams) and Misdemeanor (born Michael Patterson), friends raised in the 17th ward of New Orleans. Prime Time joined the group later on. The two earned a local buzz performing at various New Orleans talent shows, and eventually signed to Big Boy Records. A rivalry between Partners-N-Crime and Cash Money Records group U.N.L.V. led to further hostilities between Big Boy and Cash Money before the two groups made peace.
From the production mastermind Leroy “Precise” Edwards (who has also helped out Mystikal and Black Menace), New Orleans’ Partners-N-Crime debuted with the 1996 LP PNC 3. The group followed one year later with Whatcha Wanna Do?, and issued their third album, We Be Hound'n, in 1999. Partners-N-Crime had widespread success in Louisiana with their single "Let The Good Times Roll", a song that discusses the social change in the black community in the year 1994, one of the most violent years in the “City of Social Justice” (New Orleans) and “Pump the Party” (Both produced Leroy “Precise” Edwards For Precise Recordings) eventually creating their own imprint Crime Lab Entertainment underneath Juvenile’s UTP label.
Kango Slimm and Mr. Meana are now artists on their own label, H.I.T.Z. International. Mr. Meana is Vice-President of H.I.T.Z. International and in that role, he handles artist development for all artists on his label.
