The Uncluded was an American indie folk rap group, formed by rapper Aesop Rock and singer-songwriter Kimya Dawson. In 2013, they released an album titled Hokey Fright, through Rhymesayers Entertainment.[1] The band name is a reference to the Michael Bernard Loggins book Imaginationally.[2]

On February 11, 2013, the Uncluded released their first music video on YouTube. The single is titled "Earthquake". Their debut album Hokey Fright was released on May 7, 2013.[3] The video for their third single "Delicate Cycle" has a cameo of Lil Bub.[4]

The band toured together in early 2014[5] and performed a piece as part of Bedstock in 2016.[6] They have not released any material since Hokey Fright and, in May 2018, Dawson tweeted "Aesop Rock is not my friend."[7]
