Malachi and K-ezzy are synonymous with Chicago's hip-hop, from the 2well Entertainment label they launched, to the high energy lyrical dexterity of their flow and on stage performance. Their debut group album as The Mercenaries "Battle Cry"(New Era/Ichibun), did well everywhere, especially in the midwest where it hit the Top 10 on radio stations. This success set off a career touring across the U.S and most of North America.
