War Party is an award-winning Cree hip-hop group from Hobbema, Alberta.

Founded in 1995 by Rex Smallboy, the group won the Canadian Aboriginal Music Award for Best Rap Album in 2001, and was nominated again in 2002 and 2003. As well, they were the first First Nations rap group to have a music video aired on Much Music (Taboo from the Black Eyed Peas, RZA, Mandy Moore, and various other artists stem from First Nations descent and have had successful music videos aired yet not as part of a group, or a group representing the First Nations).

The band has since split into differing factions, as both Hellnback and Big Stomp of the group have separated to form RezOfficial.
