U.N.L.V. are a hip-hop group from New Orleans, Louisiana, originally consisting of rappers Tec-9, [a407591, and [a976852. Their name is an acronym for "[bU[/bptown [bN[/biggas [bL[/biving [bV[/biolently".
They were one of the first artists signed to [l=Cash Money Records, where they recorded four albums from 1993 to 1996. Their first three albums on Cash Money were only distributed locally, but when Cash Money signed a larger distribution deal with [l=Universal Records in 1998, much of their past music was re-released. Their releases were among the first well distributed examples of New Orleans Bounce music, produced by the Cash Money Records in-house producer Mannie Fresh.
While their music did not gain much national attention, it was regionally successful in the New Orleans area.
