Special Teamz is a hiphop group made of Boston rappers Edo G (formerly of Da Bulldogs), Jaysaun (formerly of the Kreators) and Slaine (of La Coka Nostra).

All three members are of different racial backgrounds: Edo G is black, Jaysaun latino/black/white/Jewish and Slaine is Irish.

In 2005, the group released a self-titled mixtape cd (mixed by DJ JayCeeOh, who also supports Special Teamz live on stage) and a 12" vinyl single, and then went on what was almost a two year long search for a record label. Eventually, Sean Price AKA Ruck of Heltah Skeltah engaged a deal signing the group to Duck Down Records. They released their debut album "Stereotypez" on September 25, 2007, with production by Pete Rock, Ill Bill, DJ Premier, and several up and coming producers from Boston.

The same year Slaine appeared in a supporting role in Casey Affleck's film, Gone Baby Gone. The group's song, "Fallen Angelz" plays in the background in his second scene (in the car).

A second album is currently in talks for 2009
