Dem Franchize Boyz, an American rap group originating from Atlanta, Georgia, made significant waves in the Southern hip-hop and "snap music" scene in the early to mid-2000s. The group consisted of four members: Gerald "Buddie" Tiller, Maurice "Parlae" Gleaton, Bernard "Jizzal Man" Leverette, and Jamal "Pimpin" Willingham. They are best known for popularizing the snap style, a sub-genre characterized by its simple finger snaps, minimalistic beats, and dance-centric themes.

The group's breakthrough came with the release of their self-titled debut album "Dem Franchize Boyz" in 2004, which paved the way for their subsequent success with hits like "White Tee" and "Oh I Think They Like Me," the latter receiving a remix featuring Jermaine Dupri, Da Brat, and Bow Wow that brought them even more acclaim. Their second album, "On Top of Our Game," released in 2006, further solidified their presence in the hip-hop world with hits like "Lean wit It, Rock wit It" and "Ridin' Rims." Their ability to create infectious hooks and anthems that resonated with the club scene earned them a dedicated following. Despite a brief hiatus, they returned with releases like "Our World, Our Way" and prolonged their legacy with clever rhymes and the distinctive Atlanta snap sound they pioneered.
