They have been putting in down for 15 plus years in the rap game. Now, they are looking to take their experience and talent to a major label.Too Phat 1st appeared on the scene in 1996 with the groundbreaking “Hall of Doom” LP, which is labeled a hood classic. The LP consists of real life stories about a black man’s struggles to come up. Too Phat was a Dime state boss squeezing the streets for every penny rolling on Vogues with the spokes and stunting every chance he could. But you know all good things come to an end. So, after a run in with authorities and a quick trial Mr. Toles did 5 years meditating down the way writing and preparing for release. To this day ask anybody from Canton about Too Phat and I guarantee you will get great response.Todd Robb on the other hand, started rapping in 1990 under the Name of “Eclipse”, making his first debut in 1998 with the classic “12” material “World Premier” and “My Position”. The Vinyl came out on the Seattle, Washington based label SUBPOP Records, under the name Eclipse.

He also worked with known artist like Obie Trice, Ranna Hersi, Bahamadia, and Saj Supreme. He has appeared in the Source, Vibe, XXL, and a host of the magazines. The reason why Eclipse changed his name to Todd Robb was a tribute to his deceased father Ronald “Poo Robb” Robinson. “In order for his name to live on he had to make the change” Todd Robb.After a layoff both Too Phat and Todd Robb decided to collaborate and do a FAM project.
