DJ Muggs doesn't sign acts as a courtesy — the Soul Assassins imprint has always been a curation of rawness, from its foundational Cypress Hill records through the series of collaborative albums with Roc Marciano, MF DOOM, and Rome Streetz that established his current status as underground rap's most consistent atmospheric architect. HEARTBREAK JC, a Memphis artist who has been building toward this moment through a series of increasingly focused releases, fits the Soul Assassins mold not because he sounds like what came before, but because he operates with the same commitment to unvarnished truth-telling over instrumentation that demands attention rather than comfort. "Fifth Ave" is another chapter in a 2026 collaborative run that has already yielded multiple EPs — the album is close.
