About The Underachievers

Hailing from Flatbush, Brooklyn, New York, The Underachievers are an American hip hop duo consisting of rappers Issa Gold and AK the Savior. Formed in 2011, they quickly caught the industry’s eye. The duo carved out a distinctive niche in NYC’s (old school) hip hop scene, with their music resonating deeply with a generation of listeners. Their early mixtapes, Indigoism [2013] and Lords of Flatbush [2013], made a significant impact, solidifying their presence in the game. Their debut studio album, Cellar Door: Terminus Ut Exordium [2014], launched them into the Top 20 of the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums Chart and Top Rap Albums Chart, while also cracking the Top 100 of the US Billboard Global 200. They followed this success with their second studio album, Evermore: The Art of Duality [2015], which peaked #10 on Billboard US R&B/Hip-Hop chart and #9 on the US Rap chart. Over time, The Underachievers have consistently pushed the boundaries of their artistry, becoming increasingly ambitious in conveying their thoughts and experiences. Making a combat in the music scene, UA gears up to release their forthcoming project slated to release in 2025. Celebrated for their fusion of East Coast hip hop, psychedelic rap, and conscious lyricism, The Underachievers are dedicated to sparking change, enriching the culture, and inspiring their global fanbase with every release.
