In 2009, Long Island, New York emcee Keith Murray and Queens, New York’s Canibus teamed to release The Undergods EP. Released on Sound Records & Entertainment, the seven-song project was said to be a preemptive release to a full-length from the Def Squad and former Refugee Camp All-Stars members, respectively. However, that never happened.

HipHopDX recently learned that The Undergods is planned for May 3 release, according to the Koch Distribution database. A rep for Keith Murray confirmed the project.

Last year, Canibus released two albums, Melatonin Magik and C of Tranquility.
