Hailing from Flatbush, Brooklyn, New York, The Underachievers are an American hip hop duo consisting of rappers Issa Gold and AK the Savior. Celebrated for their fusion of East Coast hip-hop, psychedelic rap, and conscious lyricism, The Underachievers are dedicated to sparking change, enriching the culture, and inspiring their global fanbase with every release. Formed in 2011, they quickly caught the industry’s eye, landing a deal with producer Flying Lotus’ Brainfeeder label in 2012. The duo carved out a distinctive niche in NYC’s (old school) hip hop scene, with their music resonating deeply with a generation of listeners. Their early mixtapes, Indigoism [2013] and Lords of Flatbush [2013], made a significant impact, solidifying their presence in the game. Their following studio album, Cellar Door: Terminus Ut Exordium [2014], launched them into the Top 20 of the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums Chart and Top Rap Albums Chart, while also cracking the Top 100 of the US Billboard Global 200. They followed this success with their second studio album, Evermore: The Art of Duality [2015], which peaked #10 on Billboard US R&B/Hip-Hop chart and #9 on the US Rap chart. The duo is gearing up to release the latest installment to their fan favorite ‘Lords of Flatbush’ mixtape series in late 2026.

2DEAD BOYZ BIO - August 2026 2DEAD BOYZ is the gritty new incarnation of East Coast hip-hop firebrands Meechy Darko and Zombie Juice, of the Flatbush Zombies. Forged from a decade of macabre creativity, psychedelic exploration and spiritual evolution, 2DEAD BOYZ embodies elements of their Flatbush roots with a sharpened edge and a deeper sense of awareness. Their music lives in the tension between light & darkness, death & rebirth, street reality & higher consciousness, chaos & self-discovery. Long before 2DEAD BOYZ, Meechy Darko and Zombie Juice earned cult acclaim as two-thirds of Flatbush Zombies, the Brooklyn trio they formed in 2010. Alongside producer/rapper Erick “Arc” Elliott, they channeled the best of ’90s New York rap through a psychedelic lens, mixing boom-bap grit with acid-soaked imagination. Flatbush Zombies built an underground following with viral videos like “Thug Waffle” and acclaimed mixtapes (D.R.U.G.S. in 2012 and BetterOffDead in 2013). Their momentum exploded when their official debut album, 3001: A Laced Odyssey, crashed the Billboard 200 at #10 in 2016. Two years later they delivered the ambitious Vacation in Hell (2018), which earned critical praise and debuted at #11 on the Billboard 200. As vanguard members of the Beast Coast movement, Flatbush Zombies then joined forces with Pro Era and The Underachievers for the collaborative Escape From New York album in 2019 – a project that landed in the Top 30 on the charts and affirmed their status among NYC’s most vital crews. Renowned for their explosive live shows, Flatbush Zombies tore up stages worldwide from Coachella to Lollapalooza and they cemented their legacy in East Coast hip-hop’s new era. In the 2020’s, the trio’s members began branching out, with Meechy Darko dropping his solo debut Gothic Luxury in 2022 and Zombie Juice following up with Love Without Conditions in 2023. Now 2DEAD BOYZ marks a resurrection and a reinvention. Raw and unfiltered, 2DEAD BOYZ is the sound of two hip-hop innovators unleashed – a natural evolution that doubles down on the hallucinogenic boom-bap and unapologetic lyricism that made the Glorious Dead into East Coast icons. The 2DEAD BOYZ debut project “NO1LIVESFOREVER” unearths on Nov 13, 2026. NO1LIVESFOREVER is possessed with production by common co-conspirators Erick the Architect, Powers Pleasant, ASAP P On the Boards, Chuck Strangers, Tbgmadeit., and others. Full tracklist with features will be exhumed on Halloween eve. To mourn the release of the project, 2DEAD BOYZ embark on a 20 date tour this November & December alongside the Underachievers. Gramercy in New York, Cervantes in Denver, & The Crocodile in Seattle are some of the historic rooms that will host the . Full route information, available at https://2deadboyz.com/pages/tour
