Slim Thug’s passion for rapping started when he was a teenager, and then at the age of 17 he took up performing rap at local parties. Shortly after that, Slim Thug was noticed by a rap group label called Swishahouse, founded by Michael 5000 Watts and OG Ron C, and signed a record deal with them. However, Slim Thug soon realized that he could survive without the help of the label, and he eventually left Swishahouse, and made his debut in the music industry in 2004, when Mike Jones released “Still Tippin”, a collaboration between the two artists. “Still Tippin’” made it onto the music charts in the US, and quickly sold more than a million copies, which earned it a Platinum certification from the RIAA.

The album spawned such singles as “Like a Boss”, which was parodied by “The Lonely Island” comedy group, “3 Kings” and “I Ain’t Heard of That”. His net worth was growing steadily.

Around the same time, he made an appearance with several other artists’ tracks, including “Luxurious” with Gwen Stefani, as well as Beyoncé’s “Check It Out”, which topped the music charts. More recently, in 2013 he released his new EP entitled “Welcome to Texas” was released, featuring guest appearances from Pimp C, Rick Ross and Ludacris among others.
