WEST COAST RAP ICON’S NEW SOLO SINGLE CONTINUES EPIC SUMMER HIGHLIGHTED BY SHORELINE MAFIA’S FIRST-EVER BILLBOARD “HOT 100” HIT, “HEAT STICK”
“OFF THE XTRAS” TOUR PART TWO BEGINS AUGUST 14 IN MINNEAPOLIS, MN
Multi-Platinum West Coast rap hero OHGEESY has shared his new solo single, “Best Friend (Ft. BabyTron & Skilla Baby),” available everywhere now via Atlantic Records. The track is joined by a wide array of short form content streaming now across OHGEESY’s hugely popular social media platforms as well as an official visualizer on YouTube.
“Best Friend (Ft. BabyTron & Skilla Baby)” heralds OHGEESY’s eagerly awaited “Off The Xtras” Tour Part Two, getting underway August 14 at Minneapolis, MN’s Fine Line and then traveling North America through mid-September. Presented by Cookies, the epic headline run will feature special guests 310babii and Yung Chowder alongside sounds by DJ Vision. Highlights include stops at such famed venues as The Opera House in Toronto, ON (August 21), Washington, DC’s Howard Theatre (August 24), and Las Vegas, NV’s House of Blues (September 12).

2024 has already proven a landmark year for OHGEESY, highlighted by an appearance during DJ Hed’s set at Kendrick Lamar’s historic The Pop Out: Ken & Friends at Inglewood, CA’s Kia Forum as well as his long awaited reunion with Fenix Flexin as the legendary Shoreline Mafia. The iconic duo returned this spring with their first official release in almost four years, “Heat Stick,” available now HERE. The track – which has amassed over 38M streams via Spotify alone and marked OHGEESY and Fenix Flexin’s first ever Billboard “Hot 100” hit as Shoreline Mafia – is joined by an official music video boasting over 6.5M views HERE. “Heat Stick” was quickly followed by another new Shoreline Mafia classic, “Work,” hailed by HotNewHipHop for its “incredible bounce and some sticky four-count flows” and available alongside an official music video now with over 1.3M views.
OHGEESY and Fenix Flexin made their spectacular return as Shoreline Mafia with an on-stage reunion at OHGEESY’s sold-out performance last October at the historic Hollywood Palladium. Currently serving as the face of all Los Angeles marketing for Supreme’s Summer ‘24 campaign, the duo are now hard at work at much anticipated new music to come. The unit’s most recent full-length release, 2020’s RIAA Gold-certified MAFIA BIDNESS, was followed by a long hiatus that saw both OHGEESY and Fenix Flexin carry on with equally successful solo careers, highlighted by OHGEESY’s blockbuster GEEZYWORLD (declared “a quintessential L.A. rap record” by Pitchfork) and GEEZYWORLD 2, the latter featuring the hit single, “GEEKALEEK (Ft. Cash Kidd).” Now with over 66M global streams and counting, “GEEKALEEK” – which sees OHGEESY flowing over a repurposed sample of Petey Pablo’s 2003 crunk smash, “Freek-A-Leek” – is joined by official companion video currently boasting more than 23M views.
