He released the album “Chicken-n-Beer” in 2003, which had a quick and frantic musical flow and a Southern hip-hop vibe. Despite being highly controversial due to its explicit nature, the record quickly gained widespread popularity.

He has had his share of contentious times, such as the time he got into a fight with T.I., which they eventually resolved after exchanging barbs in their lyrics and at award presentations. Another was with O’Reilly and Pepsi, and he even had something to say as the 2008 presidential election drew near since his mixtape “The Preview,” which was released, contained lyrics that disparaged politicians, including Jesse Jackson, Hilary Clinton, George W. Bush, John McCain, and George W. Bush.
