Allfrumtha I

Background

Binky Mack and Squeak Ru picked up that creative perspective from Westside Connection, the West Coast supergroup composed of Ice Cube, Mack 10 and WC. After their impressive work on Bow Down, Allfrumtha I was signed by Mack 10 to his then-fledgling Hoo-Bangin' Records, and in 1998 released its self-titled debut album. The album peaked at number 168 on the Billboard 200, at number 6 on the Billboard Top Heatseekers and at number 32 on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums. Along with singles, music videos were released for the songs: "County Jail" and "Fill My Cup (To the Rim)", making the duo one of the West Coast's hottest new groups.

In 2001, Allfrumtha I returned with Uncut and then took some time off before reconvening in 2004 to work on another album. "We've been going through a music phase, seeing what was going on and listening to everybody else," Binky Mack explains. "We were listening to some of the music that wasn't hot and decided to get back on. During the layoff, I was just doing beats and listening to other people's music. We were studying the game."

In 2008, Squeak Ru released his debut solo album, Fatworld, on The Oglio Entertainment Group. The album features guest performances by Ice Cube, MC Eiht, Damani and G-Luv.
