B.G. Introduces Chopper City Boyz' Debut
New Orleans native B.G. will introduce The Chopper City Boyz' debut album We Got This on his Chopper City Records imprint this February.
B.G. has helped The Chopper City Boyz (Sniper, Hakim aka Hakizzle, VL Mike and Gar) develop a following by featuring the group on four of his last studio albums that were released through his Chopper City imprint, which is marketed and distributed by KOCH Records.
"After being in the game for 12 years, I'm introducing my new group," B.G. said in a statement. "The Chopper City Boyz are the next step in the Chopper City movement. Since the breakup of my super group, The Hot Boyz, there's been a lack of talented real Hip-Hop groups from the South. The Chopper City Boyz are gonna change all that."
The first single from the album is "Make Em Mad," which features The Chopper City Boyz and B.G. The single was produced by Mississippi producer and rapper, David Banner.
"I'm the s**t on the boards and this is the first part of my take over [on production]," David Banner told AllHipHop.com of the single. "I'm sick of playing!"
As a member of Cash Money Records' group The Hot Boyz, B.G. helped usher in a new Southern sound in Hip-Hop along with former group members Lil' Wayne, Juvenile and Turk, who is serving 10 years behind bars for weapons charges stemming from a Jan. 2004 shootout with Memphis SWAT Team members.
During his stint as a member of The Hot Boyz, B.G. was featured on critically acclaimed and commercially successful albums like Get It How U Live (1997), Guerrilla Warfare (1999) and Let 'Em Burn (2003).
As a solo artist, B.G. had a massive hit with the single "Bling Bling," which was taken from his 1997 album Chopper City in the Ghetto. The term, which is slang for expensive jewelry, eventually made its way into the Oxford English Dictionary and Websters dictionary.
