Twista

Carl Terrell Mitchell, known professionally as Twista, is one of Chicago's high-velocity hip-hop moguls whose rapid-fire lyrical prowess has set him apart in the industry. Born on November 27, 1973, Twista catapulted to the mainstream limelight with his 2004 hit "Slow Jamz", a collaboration with Kanye West and Jamie Foxx, but his journey in the rap scene started much earlier. His debut album, "Runnin' Off at da Mouth," was released in 1992, but it was his 1997 album "Adrenaline Rush" that carved out his niche for his tongue-twisting style, earning him the reputation as one of the fastest rappers in the world as recognized by the Guinness World Records.

Over the years, Twista has maintained a prodigious output, punctuated by albums that showcase his distinctive rapid-rhythm flow and a gritty portrayal of street life. His transfixing cadence and impressive ability to manipulate the tempo have kept him as a respected figure in the hip-hop community. Recent releases like "Bars of Death" and "Twista Goat Playlist" affirm his enduring appeal, blending modern beats with his signature, high-speed lyricism. With tracks like "Black Rambo" and "John Wick," Twista continues to display his storytelling prowess and lyrical dexterity, ensuring his legacy within the hip-hop pantheon remains intact. Whether collaborating with contemporary artists or delivering solo projects, Twista's contributions to the genre undeniably resonate with authenticity and the exhilarating rush of his fast-paced rap.
