The Rangers is a high-spirited triple-threat group that was formed in the spring of 2009 in the parking lot of a Taco Bell restaurant in Los Angeles, CA. They are also the best known propagators of the newest dance sensation sweeping the nation – “Jerkin.” Originally started as a dance group called the Go Go Power Ranger$, would gathered together after school to dance in parking lots of high schools and quickly became most popular by posting their self-filmed and edited “Jerk” dance videos on Youtube and Myspace social networking sites. The teenaged male crew members never thought they would gain over 80,000 followers in such a short amount of time. As the “Jerkin” movement swept the streets of Southern California, and continuous postings of their videos grew and dance battles at local venues expanded, The Ranger$ quickly became the #1 Jerk crew in Southern California. However, dancing alone couldn’t contain this talented crew, and The Ranger$ evolved into a triple-threat hip hop group. The four members, Day Day 16; Julian 17; Langston 16; and Spotlight 16, were all born and raised in Los Angeles and all credit the late and great Michael Jackson as well as singing and dance sensation, Chris Brown as part of their inspiration and motivation. The Jerk movement has become a dance phenomenon that doesn’t only consist of unique leg work to a new sound of music, but it incorporates a lifestyle that features skinny jeans, bright energetic colors, and brings individuality back to the table that exceeds the typical “trendy movement,” and The Ranger$ stand for and lead it all! Their creativity only starts with dancing. They explore all of their individual talents and bring to the table a fervent and zealous fashion style, extraordinary dancing abilities, explicit writing skills, inimitable rhythmic rapping methods, and a music production style that is clearly all their own when listened to. In August of 2009 they announced the release of Jerkin Is a Habit, Vol. 1, an innovative Rangers Presents release featuring songs from the group along with the Baby Dollz, Cliff Savage, Yong 3rd, RockStar and Jhawk. Along with music videos of their hit single “Go Hard” Ranger$ have also released several other music videos from Jerkin is a Habit, Tag Um In, Monster, Number Dime and She Likes Me. As core members at the forefront of the Jerkin’ explosion, they currently have over five million views of their weekly and highly anticipated Youtube videos, have been featured in the popular music videos of Justin Bieber, Snoop Dogg, the most recent Snoop Dogg and Jay Z video, New Boyz, Baby Bash, The Bangz and the Baby Dollaz, and have recently performed on stage with pop sensation Ciarra, Hip Hop Icon Kurupt on the Power 106 High School Tour, Rap sensation Roscoe Umali and with Snoop Dogg on America’s Next Best Dance Crew and VGA. In February 2010, The Ranger$ revved up their mission to spread their signature dance craze across the nation with the premiere of new 11-episode series of Comcast On Demand’s “Get Up and Dance” channel, the first On Demand television channel wholly dedicated to dance instruction The Ranger$ are going to release their new album titled “The Take Over” in conjunction with a new reality show titled “Ranger$ TV” Along with being featured on numerous projects with major recording artist. The Take Over will release on November 2, 2010. Their first single off the album is titled Make Ya Girl. The Ranger$ have transitioned from the high school dance crew that started in a Taco Bell parking lot in 2009, into a bonified triple threat sensation with only long term and worldwide success ahead of these young ambassadors of the new life in hip hop for a new age. youtube/watch?v=4u-HhR7mvFs
