This Memphis rapper and close affiliate of Three Six Mafia (Three Six's producer/co-founder Juicy "J" is his brother), Project Pat first made a name for himself through various collaborations with that notoriously hardcore crew. Strapped with a heavy Dirty South drawl and comically extreme lyrics, Pat began dropping solo records in 1999, debuting with Ghetty Green, followed by the independently-released Murderers & Robbers. 2000 was a huge year for Pat, as he found massive, coast-to-coast love for two singles; Three Six Mafia's codeine-flavored "Sippin On Some Syrup" and his own breakout hit, "Chickenhead." His third LP, Mista Don't Play: Everythangs Workin, went platinum, even though he was sitting in jail on a robbery charge. In 2002, after being busted with guns in his ride, Project Pat was sentenced to four years in jail. His fourth full-length, Layin' Da Smack Down, was released two months later.
