On this episode of Caught On The Mike, Mike sits down with The Codefendants — the genre-smashing group of Sam King (Get Dead) and Julio “Ceschi” Ramos to talk about their explosive new chapter. We also talk about Fat Mike (of NoFx) recently taking the band to trio status.

We dive deep into their latest single “Rivals” featuring hip-hop legend The D.O.C., and how their second collaboration pushes the conversation about punk and hip-hop’s shared countercultural roots. The band opens up about blending scenes, battling gatekeepers, and why Crime Wave isn’t a genre — it’s a confession.

We also get into the upcoming single “Lonely Life”, starring Jakob Nowell of Sublime in the video, and what fans can expect from their sophomore album LIFERS dropping April 3. From touring on NOFX’s farewell run to sharing stages with hip-hop heavyweights, this conversation covers chaos, collaboration, and carving your own lane.

Punk. Hip-hop. No rules.
