City Morgue was an American hip hop duo from New York City, which consisted of rappers ZillaKami (Junius Rogers) and SosMula (Vinicius Sosa).
ZillaKami had met Vinicius Sosa, known professionally as SosMula, on his first day out of jail, and started creating songs some time after meeting with record producer Bouabdallah Sami Nehari, known professionally as Thraxx. Together, the trio had made many projects since then, including numerous singles, some of which being "Sk8 Head", "Shinners13", "33rd Blakk Glass", and an album City Morgue Vol 1: Hell or High Water.
ZillaKami was also featured on Denzel Curry's 2018 single "Vengeance", and in turn, Curry had City Morgue on the Ta13oo tour. On November 19, 2018, City Morgue sold out their first headline show in New York City at Saint Vitus Bar located in Brooklyn.
City Morgue was then featured in the Suicideboys' Grey Day tour starting July 24, 2019, and ending August 24, 2019. They were present for all shows except for the Norfolk, VA, Des Moines, IA, and the Montreal shows with ZillaKami stating he was not allowed in Canada. On December 13, 2019, City Morgue released their second album . On the same day, City Morgue was featured on the track "Wardogz" by GRAVEDGR.
On July 23, 2020, City Morgue released a video for "Hurtworld '99", which acted as the lead single for their Toxic Boogaloo mixtape that was released on July 31, 2020. They also released videos for "The Electric Experience" and "Yakuza" on August 5 and August 12, 2020, respectively.
On September 28, 2021, City Morgue released the single "What's My Name". It acted as the lead single to their third studio album City Morgue Vol 3: Bottom of the Barrel.
On June 24, 2022, ZillaKami announced that the next summer tour would most likely be their last City Morgue tour. SosMula later announced that the next album in City Morgue's discography would be their last. Despite the announcement, this tour was not their last. On May 19th, 2023, hip-hop duo $uicideboy$ announced their 4th annual Grey Day tour to start from August 25, 2023, to October 30, 2023, and City Morgue were announced to be a part of the lineup alongside artists Sematary, Ramirez, Ghostemane, and Freddie Dredd.
On April 28, 2023, City Morgue released the single "Skull & Bones 322". It was their first single for their final studio album My Bloody America. On August 25, 2023, the duo released the second single "HAHA WACO". On September 15, 2023, they released "My Bloody America".
Tom Breihan of Stereogum said their music "takes all the face-tatted fuck-shit-up tendencies of the young SoundCloud rap scene, and they blow that stuff way the hell out of proportion, scream-rapping about drugs and murder with rabid ferocity". Respect magazine said they "spin goth subculture hood tales, harking back to timeless East Coast hip-hop—yet sharpened by their signature dark metallic edge". They cite influences such as Behemoth, Slipknot, Title Fight, DMX, Radiohead, Onyx, Eminem and Tyler, the Creator.
