After producing hits for the likes of 2Pac, Jay-Z, and E-40, the California-based Rick Rock recruited rappers Doonie Baby, Goldie Gold, and Mr. Stress and formed his have work party, Federation, in 2002. Their debut, simply titled The Album, appeared in 2004 on the Virgin label. Critics and the hip-hop faithful graced the uncongenial, hard album with praise, simply Rock wasn't slaked with Virgin's promotion, even if the album did finally go gold. In 2005, Rock announced he was moving the banding to the Warner Bros. family of labels, and Federation resurfaced deuce days later on the Reprise division with It's Whateva (2007).
