Nighthawks is a studio album by American hip hop artist group Nighthawks, consisting of rappers Cage and Camu Tao. It was released on Eastern Conference Records on December 3, 2002. The album is a rap opera concept album.
Nighthawks came to be through Cage's love for cop movies. It puts Cage and Camu Tao in the personas of fictional police detectives "Deke DaSilva" and "Matthew Fox". The album was created in a one-week creative binge.
The album is mostly produced by Camu Tao and DJ Mighty Mi, with one song's production by True-Skill. Guest appearances include Tame One, Metro of S.A. Smash, Space, and Mr. Eon.
