Shoreline Mafia was composed of four members: OhGeesy (Alejandro Carranza), Rob Vicious (Robert Magee), Fenix Flexin (Fenix Rypinski) and Master Kato (Malik Carson). In early April 2020, the group's founding member "Fenix Flexin" announced his departure from the group. In July 2020, they released their debut album, Mafia Bidness. In September 2019, they released Party Pack Vol. In August 2018, they also released an EP titled Party Pack through Atlantic. That album was re-released by Atlantic in May 2018. The group released their first full-length mixtape, ShoreLineDoThatShit, in November 2017. Whenever you see Shoreline Mafia pull up into your area, it is a mandatory slither. Shoreline Mafia is next up and 2018 is their year.Shoreline Mafia was an American hip hop group based in Los Angeles and currently signed to Atlantic Records. It was truly a blessing to get in contact with Justin from Atlantic Records, Sherwin (the current manager for this tour), and TK, to get this interview done. Out of the 81 interviews & blogs I have conducted or contributed to, (they were number 81) they were hella funny and chill with being interviewed. I did not want to keep them from their traveling schedule but I was able to ask all the questions I wanted to and I definitely did not want to ask them questions they were already asked (graffiti, influences etc). After that, upon interviewing them, the four were very tired from the four consecutive shows (3.7-3.10) back-to-back-to-back-to-back. When they were doing their meet and greet, they talked to the long line of dedicated fans one-by-one for 2-5 minutes each and fans were able to have conversations with the crew. Just recently being signed to Atlantic Records is a massive deal for them and they know that they have to be presentable (and they are). What surprised me the most was how genuine Shoreline Mafia really is. Check below for some footage provided by Santiago and myself: The crowd was insane, knowing nearly every lyric and every song the gang performed. Moving along to Shoreline Mafia, they came on around 10:15 PM and did not disappoint. After only two openers that kept the crowd moving, tensions were high and a ton of fights broke out during the show. Santiago & I pulled up around 8:30ish and The Catalyst started to let people into the venue.Īround 9ish, fans were chanting “Shoreline, Shoreline, Shoreline,” non-stop as they were anxious to see them. They originally sold out the Atrium in 8 minutes, then sold out the Main Stage in roughly 4 minutes. Another sold out show on their OTX Tour caused them to be moved from The Atrium (the smaller venue in The Catalyst) to the Main Stage due to popular demand. RIZ aka RSD caught up with the gang to discuss the following: 2018 OTX Tour, what OTX means, Mozzy #KickTheCupChallenge, Lessons learned from music, process of music, the definition of “drippin,” being featured on magazines, their relationship with Bay Area musicians (specifically SOB X RBE), & what is “dropping” next! Check out the interview below conducted by RIZ with assistance from Santiago Alvarez.įans were eager and waiting in line since 2 PM to see Shoreline Mafia perform at The Catalyst. This upcoming group based out of Los Angeles, CA, is a group you cannot miss performing live! They just recently inked a deal with Atlantic Records & are currently on their first “Off The Xtra Tour” which has been sold out at every location. Shoreline Mafia consists of four main rappers: Ohgeesy, Fenix, Rob Vicious, & Master Kato.
