New Orleans bred rapper and Original Hot Beezy, Turk, was first discovered in 1996 when the owners of Cash Money Records (brothers Ronald \u201cSlim\u201d Williams and Brian \u201cBaby\u201d Williams) noticed the aspiring artist rapping and rhyming in the nearby Magnolia projects. Later that same year, Turk made his recording debut with a cameo on Juvenile\u2019s solo debut, \u201cSolja Rags.\u201d Turk was billed as Young Turk, and welcomed into the newly formed Hot Boys (which also included Juvenile, B.G., and Lil Wayne), issuing \u201cGet It How U Live!\u201d in 1997 and \u201cGuerilla Warfare\u201d two years later.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Turk continued to make cameos on other rapper\u2019s recordings, including Juvenile\u2019s big hits, \u201c400 Degreez\u201d and \u201cTha G-Code,\u201d Lil Wayne\u2019 \u201cTha Block Is Hot\u201d and \u201cLights Out,\u201d as well as B.G\u2019. \u201cIt\u2019s All on U, Vol. 1\u201d and It\u2019s All on U, Vol. 2.\u201d June 2001 saw the release of Turk\u2019 solo debut, \u201cYoung and Thuggin\u2019,\u201d on Universal Records. Turk recorded \u201cUntamed Guerilla\u201d for Cash Money as a follow-up, but soon jumped ship to Koch, following in the footsteps of B.G. \u201cUntamed Guerilla\u201d remained unreleased and Turk made his Koch debut in 2003 with \u201cRaw and Uncut.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
In January 2004, Turk was in a Memphis, TN, apartment when narcotics officers and SWAT team members stormed in. According to police, Turk allegedly shot an officer during the drug raid; however, the rapper claimed he was hiding in the closet without a gun. At a preliminary hearing, a charge of first-degree attempted murder was reduced to second-degree attempted murder, but Turk was granted bail in the state but was not granted bail in the feds. While Turk was awaiting trial in prison as his third album, \u201cPenitentiary Chances,\u201d hit the streets in April 2004. After 8 years 8 months and 16 days Turk was released from prison on October 12, 2012, and has hit the ground running, doing interviews, making appearances, and getting in plenty of studio time.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Turk has since started his own label \u201cYNT Empire\u201d with a lot of great up and coming artists on his roster. Turk\u2019s first project after his prison release, \u201cBlame It On The System\u201d let his fans know that he was back and the Game was about to change. After his release, Turk took 12 months of Domination to a whole new level. Hit after hit, Turk continues to provide the consumer base with such tracks as \u201c52 Bullets\u201d \u201cHold Up LeBron\u201d \u201cFuck how It Turn Out\u201d and so many more. With his recent appearance on Iyanla Vanzant: Fix My Life, Turk is allowing the world insight as to his relationship with wife, Emani and what life behind the music is all about. As they work on their union, Turk is showing the world what being a BOSS is all about as he has brings Emani to the spotlight with her \u201cMade Woman\u201d movement.<\/p>\n
