Some artists are driven by the desire for fame. Others are motivated by money. But the Flyght Gang out of Milwaukee, Wisc. has something else on their minds before they step into the recording booth: legacy. “We all can go work [9-to-5s], or we could be in the streets forever. That's easy,” says Flyght Gang’s Big Blu Hunnid. “But I feel like this is something that all of us done gave some of our hearts to, so why not go after it? That's what really makes me want to do it. I want to see our next generations have something to build on.”
Although Flyght Gang is bigger than music, with affiliates in their hometown and throughout the country, the four artists in the group and generals of the crew are Big Blu Hunnid, Bossboi Veella, Max Julian, and Nik Yola. Named for their collective reputation for flyness and as connoisseurs of quality in all its forms, Flyght Gang applies those same discerning tastes to their music. “We've been manicuring our styles for so long that we kind of know the music,” says Blu. “We've been studying business, [...] we been studying what people like. We supposed to be in hip hop.” The group started rapping as youngsters, but didn’t take it seriously until they were adults. Says Max, “we always wrote and we always had raps, but we never put the machine behind it. So when I noticed we had the machine behind it, I know we can do it once we all come together as a unit.”
Before the crew was giving their all to music, they were making moves on the streets of Milwaukee. And though they survived those dangerous times relatively unscathed, it became increasingly clear that they needed to direct their efforts into something positive sooner rather than later. The four decided to pool the money they’d acquired hustling and turn it into a state-of-the-art recording studio called Flyght Studios. This was the moment that their part-time hobby became a full-time passion.
After dropping their first, self-titled, mixtape in the early 2010s, the four-man squad of brothers childhood friend, spent the intervening years gaining experience on the battle circuit and quietly honing their skills in the studio. “We've been rapping in competition with the league our whole lives. So we've been able to change our styles, and adapt to new styles and new ways to rap just off being underground,” says Nik. “I know that we got a bag [of moves] like Kobe. An arsenal. It ain't just one sound it's all sounds.” After devoting the proverbial 10,000 hours required to perfecting their craft, Flyght Gang is ready to show the world what they’ve been working on.
The takeover begins early in 2020, with their recently-released single “Hop Out.”  The menacing, bass-heavy, track finds the squad focused and dead serious about making their mark in the game. The single is just the beginning, with group projects, solo outings, videos, and an overall increase in visibility as the next step in reaching their goals. “Yeah, the bigger picture. The long run,” says Nik. “‘Let your shit bubble quietly, and then you blow. But keep your cool.’ That’s what Jay-Z said.”
And what is the bigger picture? Besides leaving a legacy for the next generation of their respective families, Flyght Gang is determined to leave an even bigger legacy by putting Milwaukee on the map. With Detroit and Chicago enjoying sustained periods of success in the Midwest over the past decade, the lack of representation in hip-hop for the Cream City motivates the four-man crew to grind even harder. Says Bossboi Veella, “Once we get the notoriety, I think it's going to change how people moving now, cause everybody moving the same way.” Big Blu agrees saying, “We want to really build the city a different identity that's separate from Detroit, that's separate from Chicago. Cause we got a group of people that's talented in our city, not just us. And that needs its own lane.”
