Big Gipp (born Cameron Gipp; April 28, 1973) is an American rapper from Atlanta, Georgia. He is best known as a member of Goodie Mob, and has also released one solo album[1] and been part of several collaborations, most recently with Ali as Ali & Gipp.
Background
Big Gipp, who is a Southern rapper, hails from the hotbed of the genre, Atlanta, Georgia. Gipp is known for his slow, drawn-out rapping dialect with political and street-life themed lyrics. The public first heard him rap on OutKast's first album, Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik, on the song Git Up, Git Out.
Goodie Mob
He later rose to prominence as one-fourth of the Dungeon Family-affiliated group Goodie Mob along with Cee-Lo, T-Mo, and Khujo. The group released four albums to critical and commercial success. After a brief stint away from Goodie Mob, he rejoined the group along with Cee-Lo to reconstruct the once estranged quartet. They are currently in the studio planning to release a new album.[]
Ali & Gipp
Big Gipp has released a collaborative effort with one of St. Lunatics's, Ali. The album is called Kinfolk. A single and accompanying music video ("Go Head") were released on July 31, 2007.
ATLA
Daz Dillinger (Tha Dogg Pound) and Big Gipp have just released the first single off of their upcoming collaborative album, titled "One Day At A Time". The album is called, "A.T.L.A.", and is set to be released in 2018.
