Murs and The Grouch announced their new super duo Thees Handz last month. Now, the Living Legends MCs have unveiled their inaugural self-titled album.
Comprised of 10 tracks, the project features additional contributions from Reverie, DJ Abilities, Rabbitt and Brady Watt.
“Murs and I didn’t always see eye-to-eye,” The Grouch recently told HipHopDX. “During our time in the Living Legends, we butted heads when it came to creative and business decisions. As time has gone on, our love for each other as brothers has grown. We recorded this album from a real place and I’m very proud of how far we’ve come.”
Murs and The Grouch are heading out on the final How The Grouch Stole Christmas (0r ChristMURS) Tour next week and will clearly have some new material to rock.

Living Legends MCs The Grouch and Murs have joined lyrical forces for a new super duo they’ve dubbed Thees Handz.
To commemorate the special occasion, the West Coast Hip Hop OGs have shared two singles from their forthcoming album — the title track and “Be Nice” featuring Brady Watt.
Clocking in at 10 tracks, Thees Handz boasts production from Ant of Atmosphere, fellow Living Legend Eligh, DJ Fresh, DJ Rek, Brady Watt and The Grouch himself. Guest vocalists include Reverie, Rabbitt and Brady Watt as well as scratches from DJ Abilities.
“Murs and I didn’t always see eye-to-eye,” The Grouch tells HipHopDX. “During our time in the Living Legends, we butted heads when it came to creative and business decisions. As time has gone on, our love for each other as brothers has grown.
“We recorded this album from a real place and I’m very proud of how far we’ve come. We built this shit from the ground up with our bare hands, so to speak, and the title track embodies that. We included the ‘Be Nice’ track because every motherfucker needs to be nice. Enjoy!”
The Grouch and Murs head out on the twelfth and final How The Grouch Stole Christmas (or ChristMURS in this case) Tour on November 12.
Thees Handz will be available on November 8 via Thees Handz/EMPIRE. Pre-orders are available here.
