Souls of Mischief: an alternative hip hop group from Oakland, California, that is also part of the hip hop collective, Hieroglyphics (with Del tha Funky Homosapien). The Souls of Mischief formed in 1991 and is composed of emcees A-Plus, Opio, Phesto, and Tajai.

Souls of Mischief are considered members of the Native Tongues Posse due to their appearance on the collage of artists on A Tribe Called Quest's album Midnight Marauders.

The group stayed with Jive for one more album, 1995's No Man's Land, before being released from the label during that same year.

In 1995, following the release of the group from its major-label contract with Jive, the group officially formed the alternative hip-hop collective Hieroglyphics, with emcees Del tha Funkee Homosapien, Casual, Pep Love, Jaybiz, and producer Domino. The group participated as full members in both Hieroglyphics' studio albums: 1998's 3rd Eye Vision, and 2003's Full Circle.

The group has released two albums on the Hiero's self-owned independent label, Hieroglyphics Imperium Recordings, 1999's Focus, and 2000's Trilogy: Conflict, Climax, Resolution.

On October 30, 2006, Hierocast (Hieroglyphics' official podcast), Del tha Funkee Homosapien reported that the Souls of Mischief were currently working on their next studio album with Prince Paul (De La Soul, Gravediggaz, Handsome Boy Modeling School).

On January 6, 2009 Souls of Mischief released the "Tour Stories" EP produced by Domino and co-produced by Prince Paul. The song is taken from the forthcoming album, Montezuma's Revenge on Hieroglyphics Imperium.
