{"title":"Three 6 Mafia","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThree 6 Mafia is an American hip-hop group hailing from Memphis, Tennessee. Established in 1991 by DJ Paul (Paul Beauregard), Juicy J (Jordan Houston), and Lord Infamous (Ricky Dunigan), the group initially went by the names \"Backyard Posse\" and \"Triple Six Mafia\". They gained recognition for their horrorcore music and released EPs through their own record company, Prophet Entertainment. Later, they formed their own label called Hypnotize Minds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThroughout their career, Three 6 Mafia not only achieved mainstream success but also played a significant role in launching the careers of other rappers. Prior to releasing their album \"Mystic Stylez\", they added Koopsta Knicca (Robert Cooper), Gangsta Boo (Lola Mitchell), and Crunchy Black (Darnell Carlton) to the lineup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEvolving over time, Three 6 Mafia started as an underground hardcore rap sensation with a horror-themed approach. However, they eventually enjoyed mainstream success, winning an Oscar and producing major hits. The core members of the group are Juicy J and DJ Paul who both serve as producers and rappers. Notable affiliates have included Crunchy Black, Gangsta Boo, Lord Infamous, Koopsta Knicca, La' Chat, Project Pat, Killa Klan Kaze, Indo G among others.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"chpt-2-world-domination","title":"Chpt. 2: World Domination","description":"\u003cp\u003eYears before their groundbreaking Oscar for “It’s Hard Out Here For A Pimp,” Memphis’ Three 6 Mafia were making a splash throughout the South with self-released, hard albums for a growing legion of street-rap fans. To anyone listening to their earlier work today, it will come as no surprise that they started out as a straight-up “horrorcore” group. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eChpt. 2: World Domination\u003c\/i\u003e is the group’s third album overall and their first on Relativity. In many ways, this was the country’s first introduction to the crew, centred around producers \/ MCs DJ Paul and Juicy J.  The horrorcore aesthetic is never far from the surface with the crew, heard clearly on the rolling, menacing and downright catchy “Are U Ready 4 Us” (with Michigan’s The Dayton Family), “Spill My Blood” and “Bodyparts 2” (with guests including Memphis affiliate Project Pat). \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Tear Da Club Up ‘97” was one of the album’s singles, and it resonates in Southern clubs to this day. “Late Nite Tip,” another single, has similar resonance among fans, showing a more serious side to the group’s lyricism. “Who Got Dem 9s” (with Project Pat) and the sex-fuelled chatter on “Watcha Do” and “Neighborhood Hoe” show that they have range, even if it’s not what their neighbourhood preacher might want to hear (or at least cop to it in public). \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe group was still on the rise in 1997 when this southern classic hit, and had even bigger things ahead of them.
