Obie Trice hit the mainstream hip hop scene in 2003 when his single 'Got Some Teeth' went into the UK singles chart Top Ten while his album 'Cheers' went on to sell a million and a half worldwide.

Obie has been through some tough times recently not only losing his close friend Proof to gun violence but he was also a victim himself being shot on New Year's Eve last year with one of the bullets still said to be lodged in his head.

His latest album 'Second Round's On Me' has been executive produced by Eminem and also features additional production credits from JR Roten, Swinga, Sick Notes, 9th Wonder and Mr Lee. The album is out now
