Tha True Showtime’s debut mixtape was conjured up during the Spring semester of 2013 at Tuskegee University. During a late night cypher, he captivated the dorm room with freestyled songs “Come Wit It” and “Gravy”. Teammate/Classmate, Kevin Slayton, known as YCHA, gave Show 20 beats and told him to go to work. In 2014, a year after Showtime’s departure from Tuskegee, he dedicated himself fully to creating music and released the project under his own record label, Str Pwr Records. With hit songs like “Like Water”, “Yo Bitch”, “Pull Up”, and “Head Down, Ass Up”, he was able to accumulate over of 300,000+ streams on Soundcloud.
