History
At the end of the tour for All Hands in 2015, Minneapolis hip hop collective Doomtree decided to take a short break, allowing each member to focus on their own projects.[5] P.O.S, Sims, Lazerbeak, and Paper Tiger, who are four-sevenths of the collective, formed the group Shredders in 2016.[6] Producers Lazerbeak and Paper Tiger started trading tracks between New York and Minneapolis.[7] Around tour dates for their respective solo albums, rappers P.O.S and Sims took hold of those beats and started trading verses over them.[7]
In 2017, Shredders released a self-titled debut EP.[8] It was followed by the singles "Xanthrax"[9] and "Flipping Cars".[10] In that year, the group released the debut studio album, Dangerous Jumps.[11] It peaked at number 43 on Billboard's Independent Albums chart.[4]
In 2019, the group released the singles "Ayeyayaya",[12] "Suburban Base",[13] and "Vanilla ISIS".[14] In that year, the group also released a studio album, Great Hits.[15]
