Erick Sermon, Jamal and Malik in full effect.

I suggest you turn up your volume before playin’ this.

Back with some more Illegal with a phat track called Head Or Gut. Illegal was a short-lived hip hop duo composed of Jamal Phillips (Philadelphia) and Malik Edwards (Holly Hill, South Carolina) that was signed to Rowdy Records. The duo was known to be affiliated with the hip-hop collective Hit Squad. The track is from their debut and only album The Untold Truth, released in 1993 on Rowdy Records.

Jamal 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 Monica on Miss Thang and later with his cousin Snoop Dogg on Doggystyle and Warren G on Regulate.
