Untouchable: Idaho’s Hip Hop Trailblazers Still Can’t Be Touched
Long before social media and streaming platforms made music global with a click, one group from Southern Idaho was already changing the game for local hip hop. That group was Untouchable.
How it all started
Founded under C.B.T. Productions with Executive Producer P.$ho’ty/G of Dope$tylo Records LLC, Untouchable started with four core members—P.$ho’ty/G, Bones, Smokin Joe, and 40—and a not-so-secret weapon: kt munee, one of the most dynamic female MCs the state has ever seen. Together, they became the first hip hop group to land on local radio in the Magic Valley, sparking a movement that inspired countless artists across Idaho.
What debut project meant to them
Their debut project, Untouchable Street Products, was more than an album—it was a reflection of their lives. “We are products of the streets. Living our lives in the streets. Telling our stories from the streets,” says P.$ho’ty/G, explaining how the group’s environment shaped their name, their sound, and their purpose.
Although the group’s rise was met with turmoil that led to its split, P.$ho’ty/G and kt munee carried on, releasing the Untouchable G-munee album, which delivered another round of hard-hitting, authentic records. But the grind of independent music eventually forced the crew to step away, taking years off from the scene.
The legacy, however, never faded. A few years back, Bones and P.$ho’ty/G released a video for Mi Tierra from Street Products. With no marketing and no social media push, the video racked up an unexpected wave of views online. Fans and fellow artists began reaching out, sharing stories of how Untouchable’s music had shaped their lives years earlier. The response reminded the group why they started—and why their music still resonates.
For P.$ho’ty/G, hip hop has always been about the hustle. Inspired by Eazy-E of N.W.A., he saw how music gave people from the streets a way to rise legitimately. “I think having someone local in your area, right around the corner or in the next town over, is even more inspirational,” he says.
Today, Untouchable continues to hold onto its core identity: street-driven, unfiltered, and impossible to ignore. Whether through old-school “trunk popper” tactics or modern digital platforms, their message remains clear.
“We are products of the streets. Can’t be touched. We are street products. Untouchable.”
