There are two groups with this name 1. Boston area Hip-Hop group which included Ray Dog (aka Benzino of RSO/Made Men), E-Devious (aka Twice Thou of RSO/Made Men), Cool Gzus (aka Mr. Gzus of TDS Mob/Made Men), Tangg the Juice, Masta Criminal Mann Terror, Mike McNeil (aka M3/Mass Murderin' Mike), Tony Rhome (of RSO), Big Roscoe and (Masta Criminal) Main T.

At the time, gun violence was at an all-time high in the bloody streets of Boston. They sought out all the “impact-players” of 16 street gangs to help stem the tide of gang violence. A historic group was formed and this was the WiseGuys. All the gangs were enemies and some were fresh off gun battles and homicides so getting them to put their guns down and come to a recording studio was virtually impossible, however, they pulled it off and proved we could do what the BPD couldn’t. Shootings, robberies and murders dropped to an all-time low. President Clinton took notice and visited Boston to inquire about the formula. Mayor Menino, the BPD and local clergymen took full credit and called it “The Boston Miracle”. The City played no part in curbing the gang violence, the impact players themselves should have received that credit. The WiseGuys enjoyed national success however, egos and misunderstandings got the best of some members and the WG’s ended up disbanding as well. 2. Somewhere between laid back hip-hop, trip hop. and big beat, popular electronica group The Wiseguys used atmospheric samples produced by DJ Touché (Theo Keating) and Regal (Paul Eve) in the British tradition of The Chemical Brothers and Fatboy Slim. Their critically acclaimed debut, titled 'Executive Suite', was released in '96, soon after which Regal left, leaving DJ Touché to release their second (and final) LP, titled 'The Antidote', in '98. Supported by rappers like Sense Live, Tito-T, Mr. Mojo and Season, they created some American style old-school touch cult classics, before officially disbanding in 2001. DJ Touché now goes by the pseudonym Fake Blood and makes up one half of the The Black Ghosts (the other member coming from the now defunct electronic group Simian). Regal has released some solo material since 2006. Over the years, talk of a reunion have long endured, and fans don't count the group out just yet.
