Brockhampton was an American hip-hop group founded in San Marcos, Texas, in 2014. Formed partially through online forums, the group was often noted for their size, diversity, and prolific discography. The group's final line-up included vocalists Kevin Abstract, Matt Champion, Merlyn Wood, and Dom McLennon, producers/vocalists Joba, Bearface, and Jabari Manwa, producers Romil Hemnani and Kiko Merley, graphic designer Henock Sileshi (HK), photographer Ashlan Grey, web designer Roberto Ontenient, and manager Jon Nunes. Founded by de facto leader Kevin Abstract in 2014, Brockhampton consisted of members of the defunct Internet music collective AliveSinceForever. Their debut mixtape, All-American Trash, was independently released in 2016. After relocating to Los Angeles, the group achieved critical and commercial success with their studio albums Saturation, Saturation II, Saturation III, which were released in quick succession over six months in 2017. The next year, they signed to RCA Records, and shortly afterwards founding member Ameer Vann was removed from the group following accusations of sexual misconduct. After repeated delays, Iridescence (2018) debuted atop the Billboard 200 and earned the group a nomination at the Brit Awards. Ginger (2019) and Roadrunner: New Light, New Machine (2021) were released to similar commercial success, with the former producing the multi-platinum single "Sugar". In 2022, the group disbanded following the release of their final studio albums The Family and TM. Generally categorized as a hip-hop collective, the group was notable in their early years for branding themselves as a boy band, in what they referred to as an effort to redefine the term. The group's size and diversity was often noted, with the group's roster containing rappers, singers, producers, photographers, and more of various sexualities, ethnicities, and nationalities.
