History
In 1997, MHz was formed in Columbus, Ohio.[4] In 1998, the group released the debut single, "World Premier", which was later praised by Complex as "one of the best and most underrated 12" cuts from Fondle Em Records' impeccable catalog".[5]
In 2001, MHz released a compilation album entitled Table Scraps, which was described by Allmusic as "one of the quintessential of the Cowtown releases".[6]
In 2011, three years after the death of Camu Tao, MHz ended the hiatus and changed the name to MHz Legacy.[7] The first studio album, MHz Legacy, was released on Man Bites Dog Records in 2012.[8] It featured guest appearances from Danny Brown, Ill Bill, Slaine, Blu, and Slug.[9] Production was handled by RJD2 as well as Harry Fraud, Marco Polo, and J. Rawls.[10] Columbus Alive called it "a record that sounds distinctly like MHz, updated for 2012 without compromising the group’s hardscrabble, battle-born identity".[11]
