Cro-Mags domain name ownership was a matter of dispute when Savoia NYC, an entity related to Harley Flanagan, filed the complaint with the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). As Domain Name Wire states: " Mayhew was co-owner of an entity with Flanagan that held a trademark for Cro-Mags when he registered the domain name in 1999." However WIPO rejected to grant domain name to Flanagan citing abuse of policy. As a result, Mayhew remained the owner of the original Cro-Mags website.

Mayhew is a founding member, songwriter and guitarist of Cro-Mags, where he created music and played from 1980-1990 and 1996-2001. He is also a founding member of White Devil. He played in other music bands including Sămsära and Psychic Orgy. In 2020, Mayhew founded Aggros, a new instrumental hardcore/metal band based in NYC. The band's first single "Chaos Magic" was released without label via Mayhew's YouTube channel in October 2020.
