OHGEESY AND FENIX FLEXIN RETURN AT LAST WITH FIRST NEW MUSIC TOGETHER IN ALMOST FOUR YEARS
ICONIC WEST COAST RAP HEROES CURRENTLY THE FACE OF ALL LOS ANGELES MARKETING FOR SUPREME’S SUMMER ‘24 CAMPAIGN
“HEAT STICK” AVAILABLE NOW VIA ATLANTIC RECORDS
Multi-Platinum West Coast rap heroes Shoreline Mafia are back at last with their first official release in almost four years, “Heat Stick,” available now via Atlantic Records. An official music video premieres today.
“Heat Stick” marks the long awaited return of founding members OHGEESY and Fenix Flexin as Shoreline Mafia following a spectacular on-stage reunion at OHGEESY’s sold-out performance last October at Los Angeles, CA’s historic Hollywood Palladium. Currently serving as the face of all Los Angeles marketing for Supreme’s Summer ‘24 campaign, the iconic duo are now hard at work at much anticipated new music to come.
Known worldwide for their one-of-a-kind West Coast band of hip-hop power and flow, Shoreline Mafia currently boast over 1B worldwide streams thanks to a long string of hugely popular, critically acclaimed releases including 2017’s now-classic debut mixtape, SHORELINEDOTHATSHIT, as well as such singles as the RIAA Platinum certified “Musty” and “Nun Major,” the Gold certified “Whuss The Deal” and “Bottle Service,” and the 2x Platinum smash, “Bands (Feat. Rob Vicious).”
The unit’s most recent full-length release, 2020’s RIAA Gold-certified MAFIA BIDNESS, was followed by a long hiatus that saw both OHGEESY and Fenix Flexin carry on with equally successful solo careers, highlighted by OHGEESY’s blockbuster GEEZYWORLD and GEEZYWORLD 2 – the latter featuring the hit single, “GEEKALEEK (Ft. Cash Kidd)” – and Fenix Flexin’s acclaimed mixtapes, FENIX FLEXIN VOL. 1 and FENIX FLEXIN VOL. 2.
California hip-hop collective Shoreline Mafia deliver hedonistic trap rap focused on partying, sex, and drugs. After a slow rise in the late 2010s, they signed with Atlantic in 2018, and released the Billboard-charting Party Pack, Vol. 2 in 2019.
Influenced by Max B, 50 Cent, Three 6 Mafia, and Gucci Mane, the group was formed in 2012 by graffiti artists and rappers Fenix, Ohgeesy, Rob Vicious, and Master Kato (the sole Chicagoan in a gang of Los Angeles natives). In their early years, they recorded and partied together, but they didn’t cement their status as an official group until 2016. Their debut mixtape, ShorelineDoThatShit, arrived independently in late 2017. Produced by RonRonTheProducer, the set featured the singles “Musty” and “Bottle Service.” They signed with Atlantic Records in early 2018, re-releasing ShorelineDoThatShit in May and subsequently issuing Traplantic, Party Pack, and OTXmas before the end of the year. Party Pack, Vol. 2 appeared in September of 2019, reaching number 61 on the Billboard 200. The group’s debut studio album, Mafia Bidness, arrived in July 2020 and featured guest appearances by 03 Greedo, Wiz Khalifa, Future, and others. ~ Neil Z. Yeung, Rovi.
