Cameron F. Gipp[1] (born April 28, 1973[2]), better known by his stage name Big Gipp, is an American rapper. He is a member of the Atlanta-based hip hop group Goodie Mob, with whom he has released six studio albums, as well as the duo Ali & Gipp, with whom he has released one. He is known for his slow, drawn-out rapping dialect with political and street-life themed lyrics.[3]
Ali & Gipp's debut studio album, Kinfolk (2007), narrowly entered the Billboard 200. Released independently, his debut solo album, Mutant Mindframe (2003), narrowly did so as well. He received a nomination for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group at the 49th Annual Grammy Awards for his guest appearance alongside Paul Wall and Ali on Nelly's 2005 single "Grillz", which peaked atop the Billboard Hot 100.
Biography
[edit]Gipp was born into a military household on April 28, 1973 in East Point, Georgia. He graduated from Benjamin Elijah Mays High School in Atlanta.[2] He began rapping with Khujo, T-Mo and Cee-Lo forming the Goodie Mob, a group that became part of the musical collective Dungeon Family. Gipp debuted on the song "Git Up, Git Out" from Outkast's debut album Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik in 1994. 1995 saw the release of Goodie Mob debut studio album Soul Food. Since then he participated in various Dungeon Family-related projects as one-fourth of the Goodie Mob as well as a solo artist.
After the group has released three studio albums to critical and commercial success for LaFace/Arista Records, the group left the label with each member having a chance to pursue a solo career. Gipp got signed with independent record label Koch Records to release his first solo album Mutant Mindframe in 2003. The following year, the trio of Gipp, T-Mo and Khujo reunited to release Goodie Mob's fourth studio album, One Monkey Don't Stop No Show, through Koch. Furthermore he appeared on two songs from T-Mo and Khujo album The Goodie Mob Presents: Livin' Life as Lumberjacks, which was dropped in 2005 also under Koch Records, and Goodie Mob went on hiatus.
Gipp featured on Nelly's song "Boy" from the latter's 2004 album Sweat, and the following year they collaborated on the song "Grillz", which also featured Paul Wall and Nelly's St. Lunatics groupmate Ali. The single become a number-one hit in the United States and received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group, but lost to Chamillionaire's "Ridin' Dirty" with Krayzie Bone. This led Ali & Gipp to release a collaborative studio album Kinfolk in 2007, which made it to number 174 on the US Billboard 200.
In 2013, Goodie Mob returned as a quartet to release their fifth studio album, Age Against the Machine, for The Right Records/Primary Wave/Atlantic Records. Gipp has been announcing his sophomore solo studio album titled Zagga,[4] but the effort was never released.
In 2020, Gipp joined forces with Daz Dillinger to release a collaborative extended play ATLA.[5] Later that year, the foursome Goodie Mob released their sixth studio album, Survival Kit.[6]
On February 17, 2023, Gipp together with rapper/producer James Worthy released a five-track collaborative EP entitled Gipp N Worthy with the lead single "TOTW".[7]
Personal life
[edit]From 1995 to 2003, Gipp was married to singer Joi Gilliam. The couple has a daughter named Keypsiia.
