Ying Yang Twins and Paul Wall

Ying Yang Twins:
Atlanta’s party rap duo Ying Yang Twins scored a hit with the single “Whistle While You Twurk,” which received nationwide airplay on urban and crossover radio stations. Their full-length debut album, Thug Walkin’, appeared later in 2000. Alley…Return of the Ying Yang Twins from 2002 sold well down South, but it was the duo’s 2003 team-up with Lil Jon — “the King of Crunk” — that brought them nationwide success. The party anthem “Salt Shaker” was a massive club and radio hit and soon had the TVT label chasing the duo to sign. They did, and their first album for the label, Me & My Brother, yielded two more crunk hits, “What’s Happnin!” and “Naggin’.”
Paul Wall:
Paul Michael Slayton, better known by his stage name Paul Wall, is an American rapper and DJ. He began his career performing alongside fellow
Houstonian Chamillionaire, with whom he released several albums, including 2002’s independently released Get Ya Mind Correct. By 2005, he was signed to Atlantic Records and became successful with his major label debut The People’s Champ. He has been nominated for one Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance as a Duo or Group for the song “Grillz“, his collaboration with rapper Nelly.
Must be 21 or older to attend.
