Lifesavas is a hip hop group from the northeast of Portland, Oregon with a classic hip hop sound. Their style exhibits tag-team rhymes, matter of fact storytelling, and a quirky soulful production. The emcee's styles and song writing skills are showcased in the arrangements of a funky collection of subject matter and concepts.

Vursatyl and Jumbo met playing basketball and ripping free-style in Portland city parks. Initially working on different projects out of the same makeshift studio, the two decided to join creative forces. Soon afterwards, DJ Rev Shines joined them as a trio.
