Outlawz was an American hip-hop group founded by Makaveli and Yafeu Fula in 1995.

In 1992, Kastro, E.D.I Mean, and Tupac's godbrother Yafeu "Kadafi" Fula, formed a rap trio. They began rapping under the names Thoro Headz and Young Thugs. By then, Tupac had become a rap star and they were featured on his song "Flex" which was the B side of his "Holla If Ya Hear Me" single which was released on February 4, 1993. In late 1993, Mutah "Napoleon" Beale joined the group, which was now known as Dramacydal.

The group formed as Dramacydal and appeared on the tracks "Me Against the World" and "Outlaw" from Shakur's album Me Against the World, released on March 14, 1995.

The group was reintroduced as the Outlaw Immortalz in February 1996. The members included Shakur, who used the alias "Makaveli," Hussein Fatal and Yaki Kadafi, known as Fatal-N-Felony. Thug Life members Big Syke and Mopreme Shakur were also included, going by the aliases "Mussolini" and "Komani," respectively. Dramacydal Big Malc, K-Dog, and Lil' Mu used the aliases E.D.I. Mean, Kastro, and Napoleon. They were first featured on the song "When We Ride" from Shakur's fourth studio album, All Eyez on Me. Storm, introduced on All Eyez on Me as the only female member, became the ninth member of the group and began working on her solo album under Tupac's management.

In June 1996, Hussein, Kadafi, and E.D.I. were featured on Shakur's diss track "Hit 'Em Up". Although Kastro and Napoleon were not featured on the track, they appeared in the music video.

During the recording of All Eyez on Me and "Hit 'Em Up," Hussein and Kadafi introduced their homeboy Rufus Cooper III to 2Pac. Cooper, who later became known as Young Noble, joined the group and was featured on Makaveli's album The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory.

After 2Pac was murdered, Hussein Fatal left the group and went back to New Jersey along with Yaki Kadafi. Kadafi was later murdered in November 1996. The Outlawz were featured on the Gang Related soundtrack in 1997 which went on to peak at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 and become certified double platinum.

The group signed with Death Row Records in 1997 after the death of 2Pac and remained on the label until 1999. They released a collaboration album with 2Pac titled Still I Rise which went on to get certified platinum and peak at No. 6 on the Billboard 200. After the release of the album, they went on to form their own record label, Outlaw Recordz, and released Ride wit Us or Collide wit Us in 2000.

Noble died by suicide in Atlanta, Georgia, on July 4, 2025.

 Hussein was killed in a traffic collision in Banks County, Georgia, on July 10, 2015. He was 42 years old. His girlfriend, Zanetta Yearby, was charged with DUI, first-degree vehicular homicide, and reckless driving.
