Since 2017, DJ Muggs has been dropping joint albums with the who’s who of a new generation of underground MCs. The Cypress Hill co-founder has taken it upon himself to put a spotlight on the current renaissance of Hip-Hop players. His Soul Assassins albums with Eto, CRIMEAPPLE, Mach-Hommy, and Tha God Fahim have not only given these young talents a major co-sign, but have also reinvigorated the Cypress Hill producer. He recently spoke at length about this inspired resurgence, which also includes new Muggs albums as well as full-length collaborative work with Roc Marciano and Meyhem Lauren.
In 2019 Muggs released an LP with the highly touted lyricist Mach-Hommy, Tuez-Les Tous, as well as Kill ‘Em All. Mach’s regular partner-in-crime Tha God Fahim appeared on multiple tracks on both projects. In fact, he graces half of the tracks on Kill ‘Em All. So, it wasn’t surprising when Muggs ended the year with a collaborative effort with the Dump Gawd himself, Dump Assassins. The 10-song Soul Assassins offering proved that while the OG DJ/producer can tailor-make beats for any rapper, he has a certain chemistry with the capo of Dump Mafia.
