C.R. is a Hip-Hop group formed by John "Parlay" Gordon and Steve "Eddie Pez" Aguiar in 2007 in Phoenix, Arizona. Anthony "Tone Walk" Walker joined the group in summer of 2008 to complete the trio properly known as the Corprit Rejex. The group prides itself on having members from both the West and East Coast and is one of the main reasons for the groups success.

The groups viral singles "Inevitable" and "Who That" have created a large buzz in the Phoenix area. One thing that seperates C.R. from most rap trios is that all members have a distinct rap style taylored to their region of the country. Tone Walk and Eddie Pez both hail from the West and Parlay from the East. At the end of the single "Who That" Tone Walk explains in detail the uniqueness of the group.
