Biography
Years Active: 1975-1987
Genre: Hip-Hop, Rap
Disco Four was one of the prime party-jam producers in rap’s old school, recording classics like “Move With the Groove” and “Do It, Do It” for Enjoy during the early ’80s. Based in Harlem, the group formed around Ronnie D (Ronnie Robinson), DJ Al Bee (David Bailey), Greg G (Greg Marius),Mr. Troy (Troy Booker),Country, Kool Gee (Johnny Green). A fraternal connection with Bobby Robinson — one of the members was his son — got them signed up to the Enjoy label (then the hottest place for hip-hop), but nepotism had nothing to do with their classic debut, 1980′s “Move With the Groove.” A smooth, quick-paced party track, it was followed by “Do It, Do It” in 1981 and “Country Rock and Rap” in 1982. That same year, they also appeared on Profile (then in its infancy) with another club track, “We’re at the Party.” Disco Four didn’t do much more in the way of recording, except for a 1986 single on Danya (“Get Busy”) and a Profile Christmas record one year later.
