Before their eventual debut in Fortnite, Gorillaz became a popular band in the late 90s and have been relevant ever since.

The band also earned a Grammy Award for Best Pop Collaboration in 2006. While not as recognizable as the likes of Sabrina Carpenter or Bruno Mars, Gorillaz have carved out their own space within the music industry.
