Tha Eastsidaz is an American hip hop group from Long Beach, California. The group was founded in 1997 as The Eastsiders and originally consisted of rappers Snoop Dogg, Crooked I and Lil' C-Style. Their debut song as a group was "Feels So Good" from the Ride soundtrack in 1998. Although the group was signed to Virgin Records, no other songs by The Eastsiders were released on the label.
In 1999, the group re-emerged as Tha Eastsidaz with a different line-up ofSnoop Dogg , Tray Deee and Goldie Loc. They released their self-titled debut album that same year, which was moderately received critically but went platinum in sales. The group released their second album, Duces 'n Trayz: The Old Fashioned Way, the following year, which also received good reviews but was only certified gold. The group broke-up after the release of their second album when Tray Deee was sentenced to twelve years imprisonment for attempted murder. Upon his release in 2014, he and Goldie Loc reunited and performed at Krush Groove 2014. That same year, a mixtape entitled That's My Work 4 was released on DatPiff for free. Tray Deee stated in 2016 that it is unlikely another Eastsidaz album will ever be released, although he and Goldie Loc still perform together as Tha Eastsidaz.
