The members of the Spanish hip-hop group Hablando En Plata Squad met one another in 1999 when Spanish rap heavyweight Frank T. Rayka (Juan Peralta), Dj Narko (Jesus Suarez), Sicario (Miguel Angel Soler), and Capaz (Rafael Fernandez) met one another as collaborators on Frank T.'s seventh record, Frankattack. The four producer/MCs, all hailing from the town of Malaga in southern Spain, quickly decided they would work together. Signed to the Zona Bruta label, Hablando En Plata Squad wasted no time in getting their first record onto the streets. Operacion Mafia Fantastica was released in 2000, offering a fresh sound and new attitude with an acento andaluz. The group described its new sound as the rap equivalent of a horror movie, featuring violent lyrics and dark, brooding tracks.
