About Me

Representing Houston, TX, Big Tiger is one of the first artists out of the Swisha House International record label. His big break came with the track "Big Ballin', Shot Callin'" from Swisha House's debut The Day Hell Broke Loose in 1999. The song was a hometown hit in Texas and neighboring Louisiana, and set the stage for his own debut album, I Came to Wreck, in 2001. The popularity of Swisha mix tapes gave Watts the opportunity to release them on a larger scale by securing record deals with Southwest Wholesale and Asylum Records. Each company agreed to financially back Watts’ next album and in 1999 Swisha House had its first official release, The Day All Hell Broke Loose Part One. The compilation CD featured hip hop artists Slim Thug, Archie Lee, Big Tiger, Lil’Mario and Paul Wall and helped set the pace for the future growth of Swisha House. Its success proved that the label had what it takes to roll with the major players in the music industry.Fans playin yo-yo 2 drank up in my cupMagno and Big Tike ORIGINAl swishahouse concert from 1998

Sounds Like: REVIEW ON 'I CAME TO WRECK' RELEASED IN 2001 UNDER SWISHAHOUSE/SWISHABLAST THE CD WENT ON THE SELL OVER 100,000 COPIES. The highly anticipated album from Big Tiger will be a welcome addition for many Southern gangsta rap fans. Compared with some of the stuff coming out of the South in 2001, he's a lyrical genius. The beats fit his rhyming style, with smooth bass lines and interesting sampling. There have been a lot of expectations given to the Swisha House label to put out some quality music, and this is a decent beginning for one of its headlining acts. There are plenty of guest appearances here, with Mista Masta, Archie Lee, AD, Al Bolden, and Big Pic each surfacing several times. Highlight tracks are "Tiger Is His Name," "Grippin Grain," and two of Tiger's solo tracks, "Ex-Girlfriend" and "Steal Off," work really well. southern flows 4.5 Together with fellow Texas legendary musical trapeezist Big Tiger aka.
