Crazy Town

American rap rock band known for the single "Butterfly" and the albums The Gift Of Game and Darkhorse.

Reviews identify the band as centered on the duo Seth Binzer (Shifty) and Bret 'Epic' Mazur, describe their style as a rap-rock/rapcore hybrid, note that 'Butterfly' samples a Red Hot Chili Peppers track (referenced as from the album Mother's Milk), and mention drug-related issues cited in the reviews as a factor in the band's dissolution.

Reviews defend Crazy Town's first album as a rap-rock/rapcore hybrid and credit the duo harmony of Seth Binzer and Bret 'Epic' Mazur. 'Butterfly' is repeatedly identified as the band's major hit that caused fan backlash for a pop turn. Darkhorse is presented as a stylistic rebuttal mixing heavier crossover tracks and ballads. Reviews note internal problems and drug-related issues as factors in the band's dissolution.

For:Fans of late-90s/early-2000s rap rock, rapcore and nu-metal; listeners curious about crossover acts and the story behind 'Butterfly'.
