This Is Crime Wave

Crime Wave is a genre-defying debut that merges punk, hip-hop, and reggae influences through the creative vision of NOFX's Fat Mike alongside rappers Sam King and Ceschi Ramos. Featuring a standout guest verse from legendary emcee The D.O.C., the album delivers raw, autobiographical storytelling over expertly produced beats that blend 90s West Coast punk aesthetics with contemporary hip-hop energy. Ten punchy tracks showcase musical diversity—from electro-pop to reggae-ska to folk-rock—without a weak moment in the set. Essential listening for both punk devotees and hip-hop heads seeking something genuinely innovative.
