GAUGE known as Gauge The Mental Murderah. Growing up in the same neighborhood as Hip-Hop mainstays like Special Ed, Busta Rhymes, and The Cella Dwellas, Gauge learned his trade from legendary schoolyard battles. In 1990, Gauge, alongside fellow Brooklynite, Lord Have Mercy (now in Flipmode Squad), released the now-rare single "Order In The Court" from their group B.A.S.S. (Brothers About Sight and Sound). GAUGE was touring with such acts as GangStarr or the Fugees.
