Da Lench Mob were a rap group who first appeared on Ice Cube's debut album AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted. Da Lench Mob -- Shorty, J-Dee, and T-Bone -- struck out on their own, with Ice Cube as their executive producer, in 1992. Da Lench Mob's debut album, Guerillas in tha Mist, was a fiery burst of political rap and trademark West Coast rhythms. The video for the album's lead single, also titled "Guerillas In Tha Mist," became quite popular in the fall of 1992. However, Da Lench Mob were frequently criticized for their lyrics in songs such as "Buck Tha Devil," which contain racist promotion of black-on-white violence (the term "devil" refers to a white person).
