The Funk Mobb was a short lived rap group comprised of Bay Area rappers, K-1, G-Note and Mac Shawn who were signed by Sick Wid It and Jive Records and distributed by Priority Records. They were only active from 1994 to 1996, first appearing on Celly Cel's debut album, Heat 4 Yo Azz and then releasing their one and only album in 1996 entitled, "It Ain't 4 Play", which managed to make it to #46 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and #28 on the Top Heatseekers. After the album the group would disband with Mac Shawn releasing two albums, 1997's "Music fo' the Mobb" and 2001's "Worldwide Bosses and Playas" and even joining Death Row Records for a short while.
