Franchise & Yung are a hip hop duo out of Houston, Texas. Childhood friends since preschool, they formed the duo in 2006, and started off by releasing a few songs on the internet to experiment. The experiment eventually led to Vol.1 the first mixtape which released in 2007. It was a combination of Franchise & Yung’s original lyrics over popular hip hop beats, capturing the true essence of a hip hop mixtape. In 2008 they released Vol.2 the long awaited follow up to their first mixtape. Vol.2 introduced a new diverse sound for Franchise & Yung, as well as original production by Franchise and Tee Reese. Franchise & Yung are now hard at work on their new mixtape The Launching Pad which will be out soon. Stay Tuned.
