TUA was the brainchild of Jeff "dj jeffresh" Sellers and Ben "181" Lopez and evolved from another group called "Underground Siblings." In the early years jeffresh and 181 were fascinated by underground hip-hop particularly the anti-conformist and anti-mainstream ideologies associated with the sub-genre.
The two were ready to take the industry by storm rapping on subjects as diverse as taking down the "A&R's" to working for the "man" to a fellow we will call "Joe" who tragically overcame his handicap to become a great disc jockey.
In 2000, the "Underground Siblings" became "Texas Unemployment Agency." Shortly after the conception of the "Underground Siblings," Paul "Tactic" Lopez and his friends began to emulate themselves after Paul's brother, Ben "181" Lopez, and they formed a loose network of emcees and called themselves "Mekanikal Tekneex."
In 2004, Tactic Lopez and Joel "taj" Beard became official members of TUA.
TUA's face has changed over the years as has there sound.
TUA’s entrepreneurial spirit is evidenced by the TUA line of t-shirts, hoodies, bumper stickers, mugs, and aprons. The band’s logo continues to evolve, just like the sound of the band. As the members continue to mature and grow as people, the sound and content of the lyrics change with it.
TUA is fresh off the plane from our show in Hollywood and glad to be back in the lab.
