Black Sheep is a hip hop duo from Queens, New York, composed of Andres «Dres» Titus and William «Mista Lawnge» McLean. The duo is from New York but met as teenagers in North Carolina, where both of their families relocated.[1] The group was an affiliate of the Native Tongues, which included the Jungle Brothers, A Tribe Called Quest, and De La Soul.
After getting together in 1989, Black Sheep debuted in 1991 with the hit song «Flavor of the Month» and later released its first album, A Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing, which gained them praise and recognition in the hip-hop community for the album’s unique rhythms and intelligent lyrics. After six years together, Black Sheep disbanded in 1995, but decided to reform 5 years later.
