Tity Boi, aka 2 Chainz, is one-half of rap duo Playaz Circle, who are signed to Ludacris’ Disturbing The Peace Records and best known for their Lil’ Wayne-assited track “Duffle Bag Boy.”
With the help of his popular mixtape series Codeine Cowboy and hood anthem “Spend It,” the College Park native has made quite the name for himself as a solo artist over the past year. Additionally, his appearance at this year’s BET Cypher has even more listeners asking: “Who is 2 Chainz?”

On not signing as a solo artist to Ludacris’ DTP. “I’ve grown as a person and an artist, I’m really into developing my own imprint and brand. I’ve been under him long enough, It’s definitely no disrespect.”
On T.I. remixing “Spend It.” From my understanding, DJ MLK (T.I.’s DJ) sent Tip an MP3 of my last mixtape codeine cowboy. When he came home, I tried to give it to him personally, but he was still in the halfway house. The actual day I was suppose to take it over there, they called, and I was expressing my respect that I wouldn’t smoke or drink around dude. Then they asked, ‘are you a felon?’ Then crickets started. Then I said, ‘you know what, I’m gonna send my partner over there with it’. He did it in 24 hours and we leaked it.”
