In 2000, Twista collaborated with Ruff Ryders and Drag-On on the Ruff Ryders: Ryde or Die Vol. 3 in 2002 and Volume 4: Tha Truth in 2006. The label later released Respect The Game, Vol. Twista then formed his own Legit Ballin' label, which released two compilation albums: Legit Ballin' in 1999 and Legit Ballin' Vol. They released their first album, Mobstability produced entirely by The Legendary Traxster, in 1998. In 1998, Twista teamed with other Chicago area rappers to form the Speedknot Mobstaz. The album also spawned a Billboard Hot 100 hit in "Get It Wet" produced by The Legendary Traxster, which peaked at #96. Adrenaline Rush became Twista's first charting album, as it peaked at #77 on the Billboard Hot 200. Twista had by then dropped the "Tung" from his stage name. This led to a Cwal's label deal with Atlantic Records, which released Adrenaline Rush in 1997. In 1996, he teamed with Chicago producer The Legendary Traxster and Cwal's Do or Die on the track " Po Pimp" produced by The Legendary Traxster, which became a hit single. His second album, titled Resurrection, was set to be released in 1994, but due to problems with his record label at the time Atlantic Records and marketing issues involving fellow Chicago rapper Common's album of the same name, the album was only released in the city of Chicago and thus got little national attention. In 1992, Mitchell released his first album called Runnin' Off at da Mouth under the name Tung Twista. Carl Terrell Mitchell was born on November 27, 1973, and grew up in the K-Town area of the West Garfield Park neighborhood on the West Side of Chicago, Illinois and began rapping at the age of 12.
