Biography

Yelawolf is an underground rapper from a small town in the South who found major-label success in 2011. Born Michael Wayne Atha on December 30, 1979, in Gadsden, Alabama, he made his full-length album debut with the independent release Classic Creek Leaks Vol. 1 (2005). He subsequently made the jump to Sony BMG for the release of a promotional single, "Kickin'" (2007). Disillusioned with life on a major label, he returned to the underground rap scene. Newly inspired, he worked to build an audience for himself via MySpace and mixtapes. In 2010, an appearance on Bizarre’s album Friday Night at St. Andrews became an early sign that the rapper was aligning himself with Eminem’s Shady label and its family of artists. His signing to the label was announced in 2011, and by the end of the year his official debut, radio:ACTIVE, had landed. Guest shots came from Eminem, Kid Rock, Lil Jon, and Gangsta Boo, while names like Diplo, Jim Jonsin, and the J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League handled production. ~ Jason Birchmeier, Rovi

    Lyrics
    Meth lab in the back and the crack smoke pills through the streets like an early morning fog
    Momma's in the slaughter house with a hatchet helping daddy chop early morning hog
    I'm catching Zs like an early morning saw when I woke up to the racket yawn and pause
    What the fuck man I can never get sleep man, peeped out the window what's wrong with ya'll?
    Stood up in my Crimson Tide Alabama sweat pants and threw my pillow
