Most successful music artists separate the worlds of work and play. Northwest Division prefers to smash both worlds together in a collision of epic proportions they call “rap better party harder”. This 4 man combo is more than a team, it’s a division, and judging by the momentum and buzz they have mustered in a short time, NWD is in a league of their own. Comprised of Vancouver rappers Junk and Hungry, beat boxer/DJ/hype-man Gboxx and rapper turned manager/promoter, Katch. NWD met in the underground of Van City’s budding hip hop scene. Junk and Hungry helped pioneer the new generation of battle rap in Vancouver, duking it out in the first battle of the first KOTD event in the city’s history. Shortly after battling each other, the two combined forces and teamed up to create NWD.

NWD has quickly made a name for themselves on the West Coast, headlining their first Western Canadian Close To Home tour (2012), teaming up with Rhymesayers vets Abstract Rude & Musab on their American Road to Soundset tour (2013), playing many sold out shows locally and locking down countless opening slots playing alongside today's rap heavyweights; Yelawolf, Rittz, Machine Gun Kelly, ASAP Mob, Ab-Soul, Mobb Deep, Mayer Hawthorne, Freddie Gibbs, Tech N9ne & Krizz Kaliko, Mayday, Action Bronson, Chef Raekwon, Method Man, Ghostface, Riff Raff, Sean Price, Cormega, R.A the Rugged Man, Noreaga, Devin The Dude, Cyhi Da Prynce, People Under The Stairs, and Blackalicious. Combining an incredible prowess for live performance and an unmatched hustle pushing their NWD brand. Having released their first self titled project in 2012 to great response and their follow up trend setting R.B.P.H (Rap Better Party Harder) (2014) also releasing their “Stay Sharp” mixtape hosted by Vancouver Hip Hop icon DJ Flipout. Upon their new record (Orange & Black) slated for release on March 4th 2016, NWD has also released a free "Stay Sharp 2" mixtape on Christmas Day (2015) this time hosted by Vancouver electronic and hip hop legend DJ Mat The Alien. Their Soundcloud page has also a variety of EDM remixes by Vancouver native Stepsnecessary: which feature songs with Merkules of "Stomp Down Killaz" and more.

Along the way they have won the "Where it's At Emcee Competition" which gave them an opening slot for MGK in front of a sold out crowd, won an audition to perform at the "Millennium Music Conference" in Pittsburgh, PA. Performed at the world famous "Shambhala Music Festival (2014), toured all of B.C on Tech N9ne's "Strangeulation Tour" (2015) and created the "Sound of Music Fundraiser" for the hearing impaired charity for children with hearing disabilities.
