Kafani

Along with fellow MC Kashmere, Oakland-based rapper Kafani records as Babyface Assassins, and the two broke out of their region as featured guests on "Everybody Know My Name," a Keak da Sneak single that was selected for inclusion on the early-2007 compilation Hyphy Hitz. Keak returned the favor on "Fast (Like a Nascar)," the first single released from Kafani's solo debut, Money's My Motivation, released later in the year. ~ Andy Kellman
