During their early years, Alaska and Windnbreeze were active members of the Atoms Family crew.[2] Hangar 18 was formed after the two were joined by DJ Pawl in 2002.[2] The group's name derives from a hangar at the Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio.[3]
In 2004, Hangar 18 released the debut studio album, The Multi-Platinum Debut Album, on Definitive Jux.[4] It received favorable reviews from Exclaim![5] and XLR8R.[6] In 2007, the group released the second studio album, Sweep the Leg, on the label.[7] It featured a guest appearance from Slug of Atmosphere.[8]
