The first major hip hop crew from Iceland was Quarashi, who were inspired by the rock hybrid music of The Beastie Boys and Rage Against the Machine. They rapped in English, but were followed by performers like Móri, a gangsta rapper who uses the Icelandic language. More recent groups include Afkvæmi Guðanna (The Offspring(s) of the gods) and Bent og 7Berg (Bent and 7Berg).
