Biografía

Twista, previously Tung Twista, (born Carl Terrell Mitchell on November 27, 1973 in Chicago, Illinois) is a rapper known for his rapid delivery. His 2004 album Kamikaze went to number-one on the U.S. Billboard 200 album chart after the success of his number-one Billboard Hot 100 single, "Slow Jamz". Twista grew up in the K-Town area on the west side of Chicago. He started rapping at the age of 12. However, before starting his professional career, he worked at several other jobs including working at a factory, selling shoes, working at McDonald's, working as a security guard, and even cutting hair. Twista was one of the first artists to sign with Loud Records. In 1991, he released Runnin' off at da Mouth under the name of Tung Twista.

The label later released Respect The Game,Vol. 3 in 2002 and Volume 4: Tha Truth in 2006. Twista developed a good reputation in rap circles leading to work with Mariah Carey, P.
