Biography

When the Geto Boys came together in 1986, though, it was with a completely different lineup. Formed as "The Ghetto Boys" in Houston by rap entrepreneur James Smith. The group originally consisted of Raheem (opens in a new tab), Sir Rap-A-Lot (opens in a new tab), and The Slim Jukebox (opens in a new tab). That line-up released only a 12'' single "Car Freak" before Raheem and K9/Sir Rap A Lot quitting. New members
Prince Johnny C. (opens in a new tab) and DJ Ready Red would join and they would release "You Ain't Nothing/I Run This". After that release dancer/hypeman Little Billy was added. That line-up lasted until the release of their debut album "Making Trouble" which had little recognition. The line-up would be revamped with Johnny C and Jukebox leaving, dancer/hyperman Little Billy becoming rapper Bushwick Bill, and two Rap-A-Lot solo acts as new additions in DJ Akshen better later known as rapper Scarface (opens in a new tab) and Willie D. From then on they were known as "The Geto Boys".
