1993–1995 In 1993, Mac Mall released his debut album
Illegal Business? on Young Black Brotha Records. Entirely produced by
Khayree Shaheed, the album featured
Ray Luv and
Mac Dre.
Illegal Business? moved over 200,000 units independently, a major feat for an independent artist and record label. He met Tupac Shakur shortly after the album's release, who after praising Mac's music offered to direct a video for the single "Ghetto Theme".
1999–2005 In 1999, he started his own label, Sesed Out Records. The label's first release was the
compilation Mac Mall Presents the Mallennium, followed by his first solo album on the label and third overall,
Illegal Business? 2000 a year later. Though no longer on a major label, he still managed to achieve success on
Illegal Business? 2000, which spawned what is perhaps his most well known single, "Wide Open".
Immaculate followed in 2001, which would find him once again reuniting with longtime collaborator Khayree Shaheed. After 2002's
Mackin Speaks Louder Than Words, he took a 4-year hiatus from solo albums, instead focusing on collaborative efforts with JT the Bigga Figga and Mac Dre. He began work on an album with Mac Dre, which would be called
Da U.S. Open. Unfortunately, Dre passed before the album was released, and it ended up being some of Dre's final recordings.
2006–2010 In 2006, Mac Mall returned with his first solo album on
Thizz Entertainment,
Thizziana Stoned and the Temple of Shrooms. "Perfect Poison", a song off of the album, was featured in the video game
Skate. He followed up
Thizziana with
Mac To The Future in 2009, becoming his second solo album with Thizz.
2011–2014 In 2011, Mac Mall announced that he will release an album in November called
The Rebellion Against All There Is. It will be a joint release with his own label Thizzlamic Records, and Young Black Brotha Records.
The Rebellion Against All There Is will include 17 tracks, with features from Ray Luv, Shima, Boss Hogg, Luiyo La Musico and Latriece Love. The first single from the album is "To Live In The Bay". Moreover, Mac reunites with producer Khayree, who is said to be producing the whole effort. Seventeen years ago, Khayree produced Mac's Young Black Brotha Records debut,
Illegal Business?. It has been 12 years since the Bay Area pair worked together. Though initially planned for November 2011,
The Rebellion Against All There Is is now scheduled for release on February 21, 2012. A music video for his next single, "The Rebellion Against All There Is", will be released shortly before the album hits stores. Mac Mall also collaborated with fellow west coast rapper Daniel Jordan and
Detroit-based rapper/producer
Esham on Jordan's 2011 album
The Stranger, on the song "Sad Clown".
2015–present In November 2015, Mac Mall released an autobiography called "My Opinion". The book was named after the popular song on his first album. In the book Mac Mall writes about how he became a rapper, growing up in Vallejo and how his career progressed. == Discography ==
