TRUMPTHIGHT - ONE OF THE O.N.E.'s HOTTEST RAP GROUPS OF ALL-TIME!
Band/artist history
TrumpThighT/Til I Die, Inc. Bio "TrumpThighT is Omaha, NE (The O.N.E.)'s HOTTEST rap group," says Koodadd, founder/Co-President of T.I. Dink (aka Til I Die, Inc.). Til I Die, Inc. is an Omaha, Nebraska-Based Independent Recording Label. TrumpThighT members Carl "Koodadd" Griffin and Paul "Fatt Paul" Gaskin formed T.I. Dink in 1996. Prior to that, the two (along with third member, Anthony "Amp-Dawgg" Alcorn) had hopes of signing a deal with a major record label and gaining nationwide success. Shortly after Amp-Dawgg's untimely incarceration on a manslaughter conviction, reality set in. Omaha, NE was simply not a major market for rap music. With virtually no radio station and limited performance opportunities, gaining exposure was an uphill battle. "We started T.I. Dink so we could show the major labels that we not only had the talent, but that we could also make money," says Fatt Paul. "We named the first album Phase 1 (the debut TrumpThighT release, Phase I - Earn Yo' Keep) because it was just the first step in what we were trying to do in this game." Despite the long layoff of the release of Phase II - Kreama Livin', TrumpThighT and T.I. Dink have stayed active by releasing the H & B Maxi-Single in 2001, numerous underground appearances and/or features. By releasing their 2nd major release, "Freddy Dead - Dead Serious, Vol. 1" and TrumpThighTs Phase II - Kreama Livin, T.I. Dink is laying the foundation to become a permanent fixture in the Entertainment World. Stay on the lookout for new material by TrumpThighT, Freddy Dead (now a full-time member of TrumpThighT) & Tmyz-N-Lyf, including the "BumpdaTrump Mixtape Series", coming to a hood near you.
