# Shoreline Mafia

**Shoreline Mafia** is an American hip-hop group from Los Angeles, California, known for hedonistic trap rap focused on partying, sex, and drugs. The group formed in 2012 among graffiti artists and rappers Fenix ([Fenix Flexin](https://www.edgepedia.org/fenix-flexin)), OhGeesy, Rob Vicious, and Master Kato, the sole Chicagoan among Los Angeles natives, and did not cement its status as an official group until 2016.<sup>[1](https://www.allmusic.com/artist/shoreline-mafia-mn0003738879)</sup> After a 2020 disbandment, original members OhGeesy and Fenix Flexin reunited as a duo in 2024 and have released new music under the name since.<sup>[1](https://www.allmusic.com/artist/shoreline-mafia-mn0003738879)</sup>

## Formation and early years

The four members came out of Los Angeles local scenes where music, skateboarding, graffiti, and style overlapped; OhGeesy has described growing up hanging out with gang bangers, skaters, punk rockers, and graffiti artists, and taking a little of everything in.<sup>[3](https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/music/story/2025-04-06/coachella-2025-southern-california-la-artists-prepare-for-music-festival-shoreline-mafia)</sup> Fenix has recalled the early setup as recording on a "$100 mic and Garage Band" and putting music on [SoundCloud](https://www.edgepedia.org/soundcloud).<sup>[4](https://first-avenue.com/performer/shoreline-mafia/)</sup> Their stated influences include [Max B](https://www.edgepedia.org/max-b), 50 Cent, Three 6 Mafia, and [Gucci Mane](https://www.edgepedia.org/gucci-mane).<sup>[1](https://www.allmusic.com/artist/shoreline-mafia-mn0003738879)</sup>

The group built a following by releasing singles while touring constantly.<sup>[5](https://inkedmag.com/original-news/shoreline-mafia)</sup> The single "Musty" broke them widely, drawing over 50 million views on YouTube.<sup>[6](https://www.flaunt.com/blog/shoreline-mafia-shrine)</sup>

After signing with Atlantic in early 2018, the group re-released *ShorelineDoThatShit* in May and issued *Traplantic*, *Party Pack*, and *OTXmas* before the end of the year.<sup>[1](https://www.allmusic.com/artist/shoreline-mafia-mn0003738879)</sup> *Party Pack, Vol. 2* followed in September 2019 and reached number 61 on the Billboard 200.<sup>[1](https://www.allmusic.com/artist/shoreline-mafia-mn0003738879)</sup>

## Live return

The reunited duo performed at Coachella in April 2025, their first-ever performance at the festival and their first show together in over five years.<sup>[8](https://press.atlanticrecords.com/sites/g/files/g2000014001/files/2025-10/Shoreline%20Mafia%20-%20OUT%20MY%20MIND%20-%209.19.25.docx.pdf)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[7](https://www.xxlmag.com/shoreline-mafia-interview/)</sup> Fenix Flexin described the reunion's chemistry: "When we get the studio together now, it's like clockwork."<sup>[3](https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/music/story/2025-04-06/coachella-2025-southern-california-la-artists-prepare-for-music-festival-shoreline-mafia)</sup> The "Back In Bidness Tour," their first tour in over five years, kicked off on September 10, 2025 and wrapped on October 23 with a hometown show at the [Kia Forum](https://www.edgepedia.org/kia-forum) in Los Angeles.<sup>[8](https://press.atlanticrecords.com/sites/g/files/g2000014001/files/2025-10/Shoreline%20Mafia%20-%20OUT%20MY%20MIND%20-%209.19.25.docx.pdf)</sup>

## Certifications and commercial standing

Atlantic's press materials list the RIAA Platinum-certified "Musty" and "Nun Major," the Gold-certified "Whuss The Deal" and "Bottle Service," and the 2x Platinum "Bands (Feat. Rob Vicious)," alongside 2020's RIAA Gold-certified *Mafia Bidness*.<sup>[2](https://press.atlanticrecords.com/sites/g/files/g2000014001/files/2026-02/Shoreline%20Mafia%20and%20Disco%20Lines%20-%20_Quickest%20Routes_%20-%202.20.26.pdf)</sup> A venue biography gives a different tally, one RIAA Platinum single ("Bands") and two Gold singles ("Musty," "Nun Major"), with over 1 billion streams in the US alone.<sup>[4](https://first-avenue.com/performer/shoreline-mafia/)</sup> The two accounts agree on "Bands" as a Platinum single but disagree on the levels for "Musty" and "Nun Major."
