Atlanta duo Homixide Gang have unleashed their long-awaited album Homixide Lifestyle 2.
Out now via Opium/Interscope Records (Aug. 1), the 25-track project expands on Meechie and Beno!’s signature rage-rap chaos while carving out a sharper and more sonically evolved identity. The album includes collaborations with fellow Opium labelmates Ken Carson (“PB&J”) and Destroy Lonely (“Shopping Bags”), as well as features from Homixide Mali on “Sober” and R5 Homixide on “GVNGANATI.”
The project is stacked with high-profile producers, including Pi’erre Bourne, ATL Jacob, Maaly Raw, Section 8, Wakeup F1LTHY, DJ Moon, and Bugz Ronin. Bourne produced the fan-favorite single “Free Agents,” which has already garnered over 1 million YouTube views, and co-produced “VICE CITY,” which arrived alongside a new music video on Friday. The video dropped at 1 p.m. ET and continues the duo’s hyper-stylized visual world.

Other early standouts include the explosive “5G,” which samples Smashing Pumpkins’ 1993 alternative rock hit “Cherub Rock” and morphs it into a distorted, high-tempo track driven by escalating tension and an aggressive drop. Tracks like “WATCH OUT!,” “CALL ON ME” and “VILLAIN” double down on their unfiltered, frenetic energy, while moments like “SOUL-FLY” and “JOHNNY CAGE” pull from darker Southern hip-hop textures to mark a new era of sonic experimentation for the duo.
The release of Homixide Lifestyle 2 follows a steady build over the past year. In 2024, Homixide Gang dropped the I5U5WE5 project, which included collaborations with Lil Yachty (“SIDE EFFExT”) and standout tracks like “R50” and “HI-VOLTAGE.”
They also completed a sold-out run of five shows in China — performing in 1,500-capacity venues as some of the first Opium-signed artists to tour the country — and capped off the year with appearances at Rolling Loud Miami and ComplexCon.
The new album arrives after months of teases, with Homixide Gang previewing unreleased tracks at major festivals including Rolling Loud California and Summer Smash Festival in Chicago.
