The Kaze

The group began their activities in the early 1990s in Memphis, consisting of Project Pat, Lil Corb and Scan Man. In 1995, the group (then known as "Killa Klan Kaze") was featured on a tape entitled, "Volume 3 Spring Mix 95", which contained the first track of Killa Klan Kaze, "Runnin 'Lip". The formation in the epoch consisted of MC Mack, Scan Man and K-Rock. They also had a track on Three 6 Mafia's 1995 EP, Live By Yo Rep, titled "Be a Witness". Project Pat ultimately replaced K-Rock and in 1998 the group released their first album entitled "KamiKaze Timez Up" and sold about 50,000 independent copies. The album was released with the production of Three 6 Mafia's Juicy J and DJ Paul. The album would be the only project released by the group together.[1][2] 1999, the group's label, Prophet Entertainment shut down after label co-founders DJ Paul and Juicy J split from fellow label co-founder Nick Scarfo. The result was DJ Paul and Juicy J's creation of a new label, Hypnotize Minds. During this transition, artists from Prophet Entertainment moved over to Hypnotize Minds, with the notable exceptions of MC Mack and Scan Man. In, 1999 Scan Man and M.C. Mack founded their own "KamiKaze Inc." independent label and released "Thugz From Southside: 2000 Mazdestruction".[3]

In 2012, the group was nominated for music awards at the Memphis Music Hall of Fame and won the "Best Group" Award.[4][5]

In 2020 one of the members (MC Mack) filed a lawsuit against the group Three 6 Mafia now for copyright alleging that since the 90s Three 6 Mafia have been using their music without any permission what disagreements between them and the lawsuit continues in court the Da Mafia tried to mitigate hired lawyer to resolve the parties.[6][7] The case is still in court in Chelby County in Memphis, Tennessee.[8]
