Shoreline Mafia

California hip-hop group Shoreline Mafia deliver hedonistic trap rap focused on partying, sex, and drugs. After a slow rise in the late 2010s, they signed with <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Atlantic%22">Atlantic</a> in 2018 and released the Billboard-charting Party Pack, Vol. 2 in 2019. 2020's studio debut, Mafia Bidness, climbed into the U.S. Top 30, but they soon disbanded. Four years later, they reunited as a duo, issuing "Heat Stick." Their comeback album, Back in Bidness, arrived in 2025, followed by Bidness Is Boomin in 2026.

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 <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Atlantic+Records%22">Atlantic Records</a> 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. Rising to number 27 in the U.S., the gold-certified set featured guest appearances by <a href="spotify:artist:0FtsMKmZEq8fBWqdSOWtqp">03 Greedo</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:137W8MRPWKqSmrBGDBFSop">Wiz Khalifa</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:1RyvyyTE3xzB2ZywiAwp0i">Future</a>, and others. Soon after that album's release, <a href="spotify:artist:63GIj2yhFvX1Bzphb9JgVb">Fenix</a> left the group and the remaining threesome disbanded.

Four years later, in May 2024, <a href="spotify:artist:63GIj2yhFvX1Bzphb9JgVb">Fenix</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:3ppQEG71r7jVpI8RudzycF">OhGeesy</a> reunited as a duo and released the single "Heat Stick." "Work" followed, and the second Shoreline Mafia full-length, Back in Bidness, was issued in 2025. The shorter release Bidness Is Boomin followed in 2026. ~ Neil Z. Yeung, Rovi
