Foreign Beggars is a British hip hop and dubstep group. Since its formation in 2002, the group's unique trajectory has seen them evolve from an underground hip hop group to an electronic crossover act. The group consists of three artists known individually as MCs Orifice Vulgatron, Metropolis, and DJ Nonames.
Foreign Beggars made their start producing several singles and albums on their own Dented Records imprint. In 2011 they teamed up with the Never Say Die label on ‘The Harder They Fall’ EP. Following a diverse series of singles for mau5trap this year, the group released its new album ‘The Uprising’ on the deadmau5-helmed label. In celebration of the release of the album, Foreign Beggars will be heading out on UK and North American tours to showcase their new material in the live arena.
