2 Chainz

Absurdly hot Atlanta rapper 2 Chainz cut his teeth as Tity Boi with Playaz Circle (remember their Lil Wayne–assisted hit, "Duffle Bag Boy" in '07?), before dropping a selection of mixtapes including 2011's excellent T.R.U. REALigion collection. Playing to promote his recently released 2015 debut album T.R.U. Jack City, this fierce rapper flexes darkly explicit flows over hypnotic and often relatively sparse backing. Don't miss.
