Carl Terrell Mitchell, better known by his stage name Twista, is an American hip-hop artist and producer from Chicago, Illinois.
Born on 27 November 1973 in Chicago, Illinois, Twista began rapping at the early age of twelve, and in 1992 he released his first album entitled “Runnin’ Off At Da Mouth” under the name Tung Twista.The next album, “Resurrection” was set to be released in 1994, however, due to marketing issues with his label, Atlantic Records, the album was only released in Chicago. Despite the lack of national attention for “Resurrection,” Twista dropped the “Tung” from his stage name and teamed up with producer The Legendary Traxster and Cwal for “Adrenaline Rush.” The album became his first charting album, peaking at Number 77 on the Billboard Hot 200.
In 1998 Twista teamed up with fellow Chicago rappers to form Speedknot Mobstaz; and together, they released “Mobstability.” That same year Twista formed a new label called Legit Ballin’ and released two compilation albums in 1999 and 2001. In the beginning of 2002, he started to work on his next album entitled “Kamikaze” which was later released in 2004. The album debuted at Number One on the American Billboard 200 album chart. One year later followed with “The Day After” and “Adrenaline 2007.” Unfortunately the letter didn’t do as well compared to his previous albums.
Twista released “The Perfect Storm,” his eighth studio album, in 2010. The album featured guest artists such as Waka Flaka Flame, Raekwon, Diddy and Ray J. Twista started to work on his next studio album in 2013 and in 2014 he released the first single of the album “Dark Horse.”
