With deep ties to Houston’s influential early-’90s rap scene, Devin the Dude rolled through several generations of hip-hop, cultivating a laid-back style fixated on weed, partying, and his distinctively hazy perspective on everyday life. Producing as well as rapping, he began releasing solo albums in 1998 with The Dude. He quickly became a rapper’s rapper, collaborating with big-name talents from Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg to De La Soul, Nas, Andre 3000, and many others. Though he never rose to the mainstream success of some of his peers, albums like 2007’s stony yet intricate Waiting to Inhale were hits with critics and a dedicated cult following. He landed in the Top 20 of Billboard’s Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart in 2010 with Suite 420 and Gotta Be Me, and hit number nine on the Top Rap Albums chart with 2013’s One for the Road. Devin the Dude has remained a left-of-center favorite with albums like 2017’s Acoustic Levitation, 2019’s Still Rollin’ Up: Somethin’ to Ride With, and 2021’s Soulful Distance.

Devin the Dude was born Devin Copeland in Pontiac, Michigan, but raised in Florida and Texas. As a child, he went back and forth from New Boston to Houston and finally settled in the latter after he graduated high school. In the late ’80s, Devin met Rob Quest, a blind rapper and producer who was part of a Houston crew called the Coughee Brothaz. Later, the duo formed a group named the Odd Squad and recruited Devin’s longtime friend Jugg Mugg and a local DJ named DJ Screw. Screw (who was later replaced by DJ Styles) took the group’s demo tape to Rap-A-Lot Records CEO James Smith, who quickly signed the group in 1992. Their debut album, Fadanuf fa Erybody!!, was released in 1994 with “I Can’t See It” as the lead single and video.

Although hip-hop fans praised the effort put out by the Odd Squad, their album was not as commercially successful as they hoped. While the group went back to the drawing board, Rap-A-Lot franchise artist Scarface approached Devin to be a part of his new group, Facemob. Facemob released one album in 1996, The Other Side of the Law, and then broke up due to internal problems. At this time, Devin decided to work on his debut solo album, The Dude, with the help of Smith and Scarface.

The Dude was released in 1998 with virtually no video and little radio play. It was a smoothed-out, funk-laden album and an ode to wine, women, and weed. Regardless, the album built a large underground following and even caught the attention of veteran hip-hop producer Dr. Dre. He contacted Devin in 1999 and asked him to be a part of the 2001 album on the track “Fuck You.” This single appearance made Devin a hot commodity, earning him appearances on songs with De La Soul, Raphael Saadiq, veteran rap group UGK, and a solo track on the Oz soundtrack.

His anticipated sophomore LP, Just Tryin’ ta Live, was released in the summer of 2002 and featured appearances from Nas, Xzibit, and Raphael Saadiq with production from Dre, DJ Premier, and his Coughee Brothaz. To tha X-Treme arrived two years later and was followed in 2007 by Waiting to Inhale, his first album to crack the Top 40 on Billboard’s album chart. It featured guest appearances from Snoop Dogg, Lil Wayne, Bun B, and more. It would also be Devin’s last record with Rap-A-Lot after a 15-year relationship. He signed on with Razor & Tie for his 2008 album Landing Gear. Suite #420 followed in 2010 and had the honor of being released on the stoner’s holiday of April 20. His seventh LP, Gotta Be Me, arrived later that year.

In 2013, Devin issued One for the Road (eOne). His eighth full-length entered the Top 50 of the Billboard R&B/hip-hop chart. In 2017, he returned with the collaborative single “Smoke with Me,” with rapper Crim Dela Crim. He also issued the Acoustic Levitation album, which was accompanied by a tour of the same name. In 2019, he returned with his ninth studio LP, Still Rollin’ Up: Somethin’ to Ride With. The full-length Soulful Distance arrived in February 2021.

Yo, whassup? This is Tajai 

Of the mighty Souls of Mischief crew 

I’m chillin’ with my man Phesto, my man A-Plus 

And my man Op’, you know he’s dope 

But right now, you know, we just maxin’ in the studio 

We hailin’ from East Oakland, California 

And, um, sometimes it gets a little hectic out there 

But right now, yo, we gonna up you on how we just chill.. 

1993, West Coast… Dr Dre vs Eazy-E, Snoop Doggy Dog on the rise with his debut  album alongside the N.W.A don of production. Tupac with the summer release of ‘I  Get Around’, but caught up in alleged gun fights and assault charges. G-funk the  national conversation. 

So when Souls Of Mischief came onto the scene with their funky outfits, slammin’  beats and breazy attitudes – backed with a lyrical dexterity far beyond their teenage  years – a fresh hop to the bounce of the West Coast was born. 

“Sometimes it gets a little hectic out there…”, Tajai exclaimed in the intro, “…But  right now we gonna up you on how we just chill”.  

The California quartet announced themselves with harmlessly refreshing confidence,  on more of a Tribe tip with jazz-drips and groove-infused rhythms – yet lyrically more  adventurous and weed-scented; more of a Pharcyde vibe with endlessly cool rhymes  and multisyllabic wordplays – yet more intellectual, energetic and freestyle-ready. A  

funky introspection was clear to see. This was Oakland, California in 1993.  

…Now, 30 years on, 93 to 23, still infinity. Still hectic out there. Time flies but Souls  are still chillin. “Now you have younger generations who were born in ’93,” says

Phesto. “They’re like, ‘ ’93 ’til infinity.’ It means so many different things to so many  different people” 

30 YEARS OF 93 ‘TIL INFINITY – AROUND THE WORLD IN 93 DATES #23tilinfinity 

From this February onward, Souls Of Mischief will go Around the World in 93 Dates bringing their effortlessly cool rhymes and rhythms to the world. It’s an anni worth  celebrating. Full album renditions. Party feels. Dripping with Jazz. Flavoursome flows.  Cali energy. Fresh garms (with limited runs for sale) and ripe freestyles.  

‘This is 93 ‘til infinity, you know, so it’s markin’ the time but also movin’ beyond the  time, you feel me?’ – Yasiin Bey (Mos Def)

He’s been described as a Chicano Flannery O’Connor playing chiptune Ministry, the Sleaford Mods of the American Southwest, Suicide for the 21st Century and Ghostmane meets darkwave synthpunk dashed with early Ween’s glue-huffing pop. Lyrically, his sometimes romantic, oftentimes violent storytelling tunes lean toward Narcocorrido, the bloody ballads of Mexican drug cartels. It sounds dark on the surface, but really N8NOFACE’s music is a lot of fun, and as exciting and cathartic as the birth of punk rock and hiphop.

 

Nate, or N8, NOFACE is animated and all over the map when he speaks. But, he always gets straight to the point, just like his music. His songs often clock in around 1-minute long, typically abruptly ending before even repeating a chorus. The songs are built around a few stark, evocative mantra-like lines about life’s struggles over a simple, hummable hook. That he’s so prolific with these 50-60 second dark pop masterpieces is astonishing. “If you can’t explain it simply you don’t know what you’re talking about,” he says.

 

“I do scream rap, but after that I might pick up a banjo and do outlaw country,” N8 says, discussing the multiple personalities of his music. “I want to do it all. I am a little bit of everything, why can’t I use every frequency to tell those stories?”

 

He’s been making and posting glitchy synthpunk since the days of MySpace, when he first gained attention in chiptune duo Crimekillz. Even before the demise of that band, however, N8NOFACE was disseminating his dadaist lo-fi rants online, recording them on the cheap on his home computer setup. “Even to this day, everything I do is recorded in my closet,” he says. “I’ve never recorded at a studio. My goal was always to try to make these genres with the gear that I have, which comes from hip hop. I just do it the wrong way and it comes out my sound.”

 

N8NOFACE has to date released 5 proper albums (available on vinyl) — Homicide (2022) Don’t Dial 911 with EYEDRESS (2021) Bound To Let You Down (2021), Just Here To Die (2020), Synth Up The Punks (2019) and True Story (2018) — and a slew of singles, mixtapes and collaborations, many of them with sprawling double-digit track listings. Before relocating to Long Beach, CA around a decade ago, he owned a graffiti & record store in his hometown of Tucson, AZ. It was here that he developed his vast musical taste from grimy hiphop beats to seminal aggressive synth punks The Screamers.

 

“I grew up around some guys living outside the lines of the law,” N8 explains. “When I first started doing this I called it Narco Punk. I’m not glorifying it, I’m giving both sides of the story. Telling the heartbreaking side of the dark side.” Coming from a hiphop and border town culture, he found it difficult to share his esoteric tastes with friends. “How do I make my friends enjoy this music?” he wondered. “I’ll take some Suicide music and twist it to get my friends to listen to this.”

 

It worked. Slowly at first, but 2020 proved the year N8NOFACE truly broke out, thanks to the world briefly hitting pause. “COVID leveled the playing field, I’ve never toured and people just found me through the Internet. I did some streams that launched me.” Today, N8NOFACE is quickly becoming the, uh, face of a raw, exciting sound.  Having done national tours with City Morgue, Ho99o9, and playing festivals, N8 is putting in the work that attracts fans far and wide.

Resurrecting the distinctive sounds of early-’90s West Coast G-funk, rapper G Perico connects the streets and the studio with his cinematic storytelling and observations from South Central Los Angeles. He presented this style on a steady stream of mixtapes, moving from early work like 2016’s Shit Don’t Stop to more fully realized releases such as 2021’s Play 2 Win album or 2022’s 111th East EP.

All Blue
Born Jeremy Nash, Perico was involved in gang life from a young age. His first tapes were even issued while he was in jail. With a delivery similar to DJ Quik, Too $hort, and Eazy-E, Perico started to build a following with 2015’s Tha Innerprize 2. The next year, he issued his breakthrough mixtape, Shit Don’t Stop. In 2017, he released a trio of efforts, starting with his All Blue mixtape — a reference to his affiliation with the Crips — which he issued on his own indie label, So Way Out. He followed with a notable collaborative album that found him joining forces with Bloods-affiliated Jay Worthy and producer Cardo as G-Worthy. Before the end of the year, Perico released 2 Tha Left, featuring the single “Everybody” and appearances by Nef the Pharaoh, Mozzy, Curren$y, and frequent collaborator Polyester. 2018 brought the single “Colors” with Freddie Gibbs and Mozzy, followed by the Guess What? EP.

Ten-Eight
In 2019, Perico announced a partnership deal between Roc Nation and his label So Way Out. The first of two planned joint releases, Ten Eight, was issued in August of that year. The full-length album included the single “Big Raccs” and featured Sonny Digital, AzChike, and Bucho. Perico continued to steadily release new projects and singles (both on his own and in collaboration with other rappers) as the next few years went on. 2021 alone saw him releasing multiple mixtapes like No Love in LA, Free, and Welcome to the Land, as well as the more fleshed-out Play 2 Win. The latter release included multiple contributions from 03 Greedo, as well as appearances from BlueBucksClan and others. 2022 was no different, with the rapper releasing a steady drip of singles, a collaborative EP with Gotdamnitdupri entitled Tango, and a short solo EP called 111th East.

Aaron Smith is a rapper, actor, musician, and father who became known to the world simply as Shwayze following a massive music breakout in 2008.

The Malibu native released his debut album Buzzin’ that summer with singer-producer Cisco Adler.  The duo hit the road immediately on the Vans Warped Tour wearing skinny jeans, and singing about lost weekends in Hollywood, all while bringing the most legendary parties with them wherever they went.

Shwayze has since gone on to work with an array of producers and release several independent albums such as Shwayze Summer on his self-funded Feel Good Entertainment Music label.  He continues reinventing his sound while staying true to the influences that brought him where he is today.

The past decade has boasted an impressive resume including a top 10 album, Billboard chart topping singles including ‘Buzzin’ and ‘Corona & Lime,’ a rock-doc reality show on MTV, and a number of roles in feature films and major network television- all while living on the road much of the year touring the world.

Shwayze continues to perform around the world and each year he finds new territories and fanbases to connect with.

Confidence can’t be given. Instead, it’s earned. Through a prolific, albeit quiet grind, Token has morphed into an outlier in hip-hop. Powered by razor sharp wordplay, head-spinning verbal acrobatics, and off-kilter hooks, the Massachusetts born rapper evolves at a dizzying pace. After amassing hundreds of millions of YouTube views and streams independently and receiving acclaim from The Boston Globe, XXL, Complex, and more, he leaps forward again on his 2022 project Pink Is Better—the first album released under his own label Never Too Different and Atlantic Records. 

“At first, I was trying to do everything to impress people. This is the first time where I’m doing the music that inspires me. I’ve now become my own person, and I’m confident I can make it as far as I want without compromising. I’m inspired by artists who continuously change it up. I’m more tapped into who I truly am. I don’t want to be known for anything other than being me.” 

Growing up outside of Boston, music anesthetized depression, anxiety, stress, and loneliness throughout his childhood. So, Token put his head down and honed his craft at just 10-years-old, putting in countless hours, recording tracks of his own, burning CDs, and distributing them around Massachusetts. During 2015, his “No Sucka MCs Contest Entry” went viral, eventually exceeding 5.7 million YouTube views. After Token wound up on Mark Wahlberg’s radar, he appeared on the hit television show Wahlburgers and landed a role in the blockbuster Patriots Day. Simultaneously, he lit up Sway in the Morning with a headline-making six minute freestyle. XXL christened it “one of the year’s best freestyles, if not one of the best performances ever on Sway’s legendary show.” 

On its heels, he dropped his first mixtape Eraser Shavings in 2016 followed by 2018’s Between Somewhere, which vaulted into the Top 5 on the iTunes Hip-Hop/Rap Albums Chart. Generating 100 million-plus streams, it also spawned anthems, including “YouTube Rapper” [feat. Tech N9ne], “Household Name,” and “Flamingo.” Not to mention, he sold out shows on multiple continents and contributed music to the Fast & Furious Hobbs & Shaw soundtrack and Scoob! The Album. 

Throughout 2020, he carefully assembled what would become Pink Is Better, achieving a sense of personal and creative balance. 

“Pink represents balance,” he affirms. “It’s the middle ground of red and white. It’s what I’ve been going through during the last two years. I’m an extreme person. The red side is the fast lifestyle—girls, money, and getting fucked up. The white side represents a white flag, giving in to my emotions, overthinking shit, and feeling defeated. It’s about embracing the life that’s been given to me in a healthy way rather than living all the way on one side or the other.” 

Following “Chit Chat” and “Sip,” the single “High Heels” [feat. Rico Nasty] illuminates his progression. He leans into the skittering beat as he drops charismatic and catchy bars with no shortage of boastful charm punctuated by a rare Rico Nasty cameo.

“It was an exciting time in my life, so I just sound like an excited ass kid,” he smiles. “I was fresh off tour and single again. You can hear it in my voice. I was inspired by all of the new things coming my way and I was having fun. I’ve put out a lot of darker, sadder songs, but most of the red side is me enjoying myself for the first time. Rico killed it too!” 

Then, there’s “Boom” [feat. JID]. Tense production gives way to silenced gunshot samples as Token and JID lock into a precise and pummeling lyrical crossfire. 

“A lot of the lyrics are based on how I was living,” he explains. “When I made the song, I had just moved into this house, and I was having a ton of parties. I was inspired by this energy and not taking myself too seriously. I’m a super fan of JID, so it was really cool for me to finally work with him.” 

His diversity shines through. One minute, he’s bodying a bass-inflected bounce on “Amsterdam” [feat. Benny The Butcher]. The next, he’s analyzing himself over the piano of “Pink” or reaching catharsis on the finale “Thank God.” 

“The project is about the highest of highs and the lowest of lows,” he observes. “It’s me realizing, no matter what, it’s all going to be okay.” 

In the end, Token has earned confidence and embraced who he is on Pink Is Better. 

“I hope people have an understanding of who I really am,” he leaves off. “I’ve changed so much and will continue to change. Right now, I’m someone who won’t bite my tongue. I’m a kid from Massachusetts who came from humble beginnings. I went through shit at an early age, jumped from therapist to therapist, found music, and realized it was the thing that made me whole and sane. Now, it’s therapeutic to share my ideas and emotions with the world, and I’m going to always be honest.”
