Funkdoobiest is an American rap group known for its distinctive blend of hip hop with Latin influences and funky rhythms, carving a unique niche in the music world since their formation. Hailing from Los Angeles, California, the group initially came into prominence in the early 1990s as part of the same Soul Assassins family that birthed Cypress Hill and House of Pain, indicative of their deep-rooted connections in the hip hop landscape. Comprised of Son Doobie (Jason Vasquez), DJ Ralph M, and Tomahawk Funk (Tyrone Pacheco), the trio gained recognition for their dynamic synergy and innovative approach to music.

With a discography that spans the raw energy of their debut, "Which Doobie U B?" in 1992, to the explorative sounds of "The Golden B-Boys" in 2009, Funkdoobiest has consistently delivered music that pushes the boundaries of hip hop. Their track "Bow Wow Wow" and the albums "Brothas Doobie" and "The Troubleshooters" exemplify their evolution in sound and lyrical mastery, each release showcasing their commitment to addressing social issues, celebrating cultural heritage, and maintaining a lively party atmosphere. Despite the departure of Tomahawk Funk after their second album, Son Doobie and DJ Ralph M continued to steer the Funkdoobiest ship, ensuring the group's legacy endures through their innovative contributions to hip hop.
