When the West Coast first rose atop the rap industry in the mid-’90s, Mack 10 emerged as one of the coast’s most promising talents alongside his longtime associate Ice Cube. The two Los Angeles rappers co-wrote “Foe Life,” Mack 10’s 1995 breakthrough hit, and united a year later with WC to form the trio Westside Connection, a West Coast gangsta rap supergroup. The Westside Connection album became a sizable hit, rocketing to number two on the Billboard album chart and boasting the anthemic “Bow Down.” Mack 10 continued his affiliation with Ice Cube on each successive album while at the same time launching a label of his own, Hoo Bangin’ Records. As the ’90s came to a close, the rapper’s popularity dipped a bit, and he signed with leading Dirty South label Cash Money Records in 2001, where his career underwent some unlikely twists.

Born Dedrick D’Mon Rolison in 1971, Mack 10 perpetually represented Inglewood throughout his career, the Los Angeles neighborhood he called home. His professional rap career began in 1995 when he signed with Priority, the premier label for West Coast rap at the time, and released his self-titled album. The West Coast gangsta movement was peaking around this time, and Mack 10 capitalized on the trend with “Foe Life,” a song he wrote with Ice Cube, one of the West Coast’s reigning talents. The partnership struck gold, and the song became a coastal anthem, opening the door for a successive single, “On Them Thangs.
