three 6 mafia

Three 6 Mafia is the first hip hop group from Memphis, Tennessee to go platinum, the second hip-hop act to be nominated for and win an Oscar (1st was Eminem's "Lose Yourself"). They are the originators of certain types of crunk music. The group currently has three core members — DJ Paul, Juicy J and Lord Infamous, — and once included Koopsta Knicca, Gangsta Boo, and Crunchy Black, all of whom have left, or have been kicked out of the group. They commonly feature members of their extended collective of rappers, referenced to as the Hypnotize Minds (as well as other names), in their projects. ps: three 6 mafia are not satanists The name's meaning is attributed to "it started with three people in the group, ended up with six, Three 6 Mafia" and in the stay high song, the womans voice comes from an old willie hutch song. The lyrics are "You're my pride, you're my dream, you're my darling."
