Hailing from Decatur, GA, the hardcore crunk staff Trilltown Mafia had been taken to the Rap-a-Lot label’s attention by Don P., person in effective Southern rap clothing Trillville. With Don P. as their manufacturer, Trilltown associates Big Mel, Monte C, Lil’ J-Rok, and Legacy constructed their popularity by launching three intense, Southern-flavored underground mixtapes — Welcome to Trilltown, Focus on Practice, as well as the Mi Tae — before unleashing their slick “City Walk” single, an instantaneous club strike. Their public debut, It Goes Without Sayin, shortly followed in the summertime of 2006. The record featured the latest cuts off their mixtapes along with visitor performances from Lloyd, Pimp C, as well as the associates of Trillville.
