Our History |
DirtSquad is a Hip Hop group from Phoenix Arizona that consists of Joey Rook (RooX), Aaron Klein (AK), and Justin Mitnick (Justin Klein). DirtSquad originated from RooX with the idea of turning it into a music brand around the year 2014. RooX had been rapping since the age of 9 but this when he had started thinking of what he turn the music into and what could come if it. RooX started writing music more frequently and started to practice his material and felt he was at the point to start recording his music for people to hear. Around this time, this is when Roox had met AK and started recording at AK’s home studio while both still in high school during their junior year. RooX had then constructed his first song, dedicated to his friend Kyle who had passed away in 2014 (RooX- Til I Die (remix)). After dropping the song, RooX starting talking with AK about the idea of DirtSquad and including AK in the group. It also around this time when RooX had created the first T shirt design and started selling the DirtSqaud Mob Boss T-Shirt. At this time, Justin Klein had just moved to the area and enrolled into the same high school as RooX and AK. Rook had met Klein through a friend after Justin made it known that he raps. While people wanted RooX and Klein to battle, they had realized each others talent and decided to work with each other. It wasn’t until the next school year, that Klein had met AK. Klein and AK had their 1st hour class together that year and Klein went up to rap as an assignment to introduce themselves. Right after, AK went up and showed his skills to class as well. After class, they had talked and realized that they both know RooX and laughed at the fact that AK’s real last name is the same as Justin’s stage name. They all three had started talking business and RooX mentioned the DirtSquad idea and both AK and Klein had thought it was great idea to band together under the name the RooX had originated a year earlier. After the three graduating high school in 2015, they knew they had to stay together and work hard to achieve their dreams. Since their graduation, they had performed countless shows around the state of Arizona and soon are planning to expand to other states, even with RooX performing a couple shows in the state of Oregon. DirtSquad plans to drop their first mixtape as a group in November 2016 with songs from all three artists.
