Da Mafia 6ix

In 2013, it was announced that five of the six original members of Three 6 Mafia, DJ Paul, Crunchy Black, Koopsta Knicca, Lord Infamous and Gangsta Boo, were reuniting as "Da Mafia 6ix" with plans to release an album.. Recording began in Las Vegas in late 2013. Due to the established contracts with Sony, who own the rights to Three 6 Mafia,Juicy J could not perform with DJ Paul in a different group not under the label. DJ Paul explained the name change of the group was because of Juicy J's absence, and that he would "look at it as a new project". On November 12, 2013, Da Mafia 6ix released their first mixtape 6ix Commandments. The tape was almost entirely produced by DJ Paul and featured Yelawolf, 8Ball & MJG, Krayzie Bone,Bizzy Bone, SpaceGhostPurrp and HCP affiliates Lil Wyte, Skinny Pimp and La Chat, among others. Juicy J and Project Pat also appeared as surprise guests on the posse song "Body Parts", being credited just as "& more" in the track listing. The mixtape was supported by the lead single "Go Hard" featuring Yelawolf. The mixtape also received a retail release and debuted at number 34 on the US Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart and #5 on iTunes. In February 2014, Da Mafia 6ix took off on a 40-city nationwide tour, with a new leg of the tour slated for Summer 2014. In May 2014, DJ Paul announced Gangsta Boo's departure from the group. With plans to release a full-length album this Fall, Da Mafia 6ix will tour with Insane Clown Posse in September/October, and venture to Europe this Winter for a headlining tour.
