Turk, an influential figure in the hip-hop scene, rose to prominence in the late 1990s as a member of the renowned group Hot Boys under Birdman’s Cash Money Records. His debut major appearance came on Juvenile’s critically acclaimed album “400 Degreez,” where he showcased his lyrical prowess on tracks like “Welcome 2 Tha Nolia” and “Rich Niggaz.” This early exposure solidified his reputation as a talented rapper and set the stage for his solo career.

In 2001, Turk released his debut studio album, “Young & Thuggin’,” which peaked at number nine on the Billboard 200, marking a significant milestone in his career. Following the disbandment of the Hot Boys, he continued to evolve as an artist, signing with producer Ke’Noe and releasing two more albums, “Raw & Uncut” and “Penitentiary Chances,” both of which were well-received in the independent music scene. His ability to adapt and thrive in various musical environments speaks to his versatility as an artist.

Turk’s career faced challenges, including a lengthy incarceration, but he emerged resilient and ready to reclaim his place in the industry. In 2012, he made a triumphant return with the single “Zip It,” featuring Lil Wayne, which marked a significant reunion of the Hot Boys. His 2013 mixtape, “Blame It On The System,” further demonstrated his enduring relevance and creativity in hip-hop.

In recent years, Turk has continued to innovate, announcing a name change to “CFOTAB” in 2023, signaling a new chapter in his artistic journey. With a discography that includes impactful collaborations and solo projects, Turk remains a vital force in the music industry, inspiring both fans and aspiring artists alike.
