Illegal was a short-lived hip hop duo composed of Jamal Phillips and Malik Edwards that was signed to Rowdy Records. The duo made its debut with the album, The Untold Truth, released in 1993, which became a minor success, peaking at #119 on the Billboard 200 and #19 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums. Serveral tracks on the album, including its two singles, "Head or Gut" and "We Getz Busy," were diss songs directly aimed at rivals Kris Kross and Da Youngstas. The duo virtually disappeared from the public eye until 1995, when it teamed with Too Short on the song "Thangs Change," after which the group disbanded. Jamal Phillips would later release his debut solo album, Last Chance, No Breaks, in 1995 on Rowdy Records. Malik released one single for Rowdy Records titled "Malik Goes On," but his debut album was shelved. Malik worked with his cousin Snoop Dogg on Doggystyle, Warren G on Regulate...G Funk Era, and Tha Dogg Pound on Dogg Food and finally released his debut album in 2005, The Game Needs Me.

  • LOL here Malik seems even smaller than I remember him as

  • @TMBuxton They got that line from Tribe. It's the first line of the first song on Low End Theory.

  • Love That Shit ! Love The Clip Too ! They're too underrated

  • @zzirlob5ter that life makes you grow fast man thats why.

  • i am 16 1st i ever herd diz this shit is pure

  • @mansamusa2012 I think Jamal was from New Jersey(his Wikipedia says Philadelphia,PA). And what ya heard there was not his signature sound. When he was dealing with Def Squad, he had that east coast rhyme style.

  • Its a trip that I run into these cats every now and then on marta.

  • @zzirlob5ter You and me both, but the song is still hot. And I'm surprised the "Back in the day when I was a teenager" line wasn't sampled by anyone. It was begging to be sampled.

  • its a watagun and yoyo!!

    

  • i never understood why he say back when i was a teenager when ehs is 13 or 14 in this video
