Niggaz on tha Run (N.O.T.R.) was a 1990s Gangsta rap group from Compton, California. They were formed by MC Eiht and mainly featured his long-time friends and members of Compton's Most Wanted, DJ Slip, Tha Chill and Boom Bam.[1]

Background

They formed in 1993 and were due to release an EP in early '94, but it was cancelled a few months prior.[2] Very rare record test pressings are all that remain, however, several tracks have been uploaded to YouTube. (see referenced playlist)[3] They were heavily involved with MC Eiht featuring C.M.W.'s 1994 & '96 albums, We Come Strapped & Death Threatz.[4]
