Sporty Thievz was a hip-hop group, originally a trio, comprised of King Kirk (a.k.a. Thieven Stealberg), Big Dubez (a.k.a. Safecracker) and Marlon Brando (a.k.a. Robin Hood). They are best known for their rebuttal to TLC's hit "No Scrubs," entitled "No Pigeons", which attempted to tell things from the male perspective.

In 1998, their album "Street Cinema" was released on Roc-A-Bloc/Ruffhouse records. The majority of the production was handled by Ski, famous for his work on Jay-Z's Reasonable Doubt. It was critically-acclaimed but was not well-Received commercially. It had a unique concept in which every track had its own storyline that was a good premise for a movie.

They did not get much airplay until the single "No Pigeons" was released. This parody rebuttal almost mirrored the success of "No Scrubs". Street Cinema was re-released with "No Piegeons" appearing as a bonus track.
