Michael Tyler went to Cohen High School in New Orleans. Later he would go on to be in the Army and serve as a Meal, Ready-to-Eat supply clerk assigned to a stateside support unit.
His debut album was Mystikal, released on the indie label Big Boy Records in 1995. He signed to Jive Records to release Mind of Mystikal in 1996. The album sold well, and he signed to Master P's No Limit Records for Unpredictable in 1997. The album sold well, and garnered him critical praise, though his real breakthrough was Let's Get Ready released in 2000, led by The Neptunes-produced hit "Shake Ya Ass," and the only slightly-less-successful single "Danger (Been So Long)," which featured rising pop star Nivea. It debuted at Number One on the Billboard 200, making it his only chart-topper to date.
One of his most recent releases was the 2001 album Tarantula, which contained the single, "Bouncin' Back (Bumpin' Me Against The Wall)". Though it presented Mystikal's typical and unique flow style, the song also saw a blending of jazz and swing elements with hip-hop. He was also featured on "Move Bitch" by Ludacris.
On January 16, 2004 Mystikal was sentenced to six years in prison after pleading guilty to forcing his hairstylist to perform sex acts. He also admitted to extortion. The rapper and two bodyguards forced the woman to perform oral sex after they accused her of stealing $80,000 in checks. Mystikal initinally denied the assault, but confessed after a videotape of the crime was found at his home. Bodyguards Leland "Pokie" Ellis and Vercy "V" Carter also pled guilty to sexual battery. Mystikal's 2006 parole hearing led to a denial of parole, specifically "1002186 SEXUAL BATTERY OF INFIRM" and "702127 EXTORTION."
He is currently incarcerated at the Elayn Hunt Correctional Center, which is just outside of Baton Rouge, Louisiana. His D.O.C. number is 00469659.
In August 2005, while incarcerated on the state sexual battery and extortion charges, Mystikal was charged federally with two misdemeanor counts of failing to file tax returns for 1998 and 1999. On January 12, 2006, he was convicted in federal court of the tax offenses, but was allowed to serve the one year federal sentence concurrent with his six year state sentence.
Mystikal was incarcerated at Louisiana's Elayn Hunt Correctional Center. On January 19, 2006, Mystikal was denied parole at a parole board hearing.
On January 11, 2007, Mystikal was released from custody on the federal misdemeanor tax convictions (as his one-year sentence had expired), but he remains in custody on the 6-year sentence for the Louisiana state felony convictions.
Big Truck Boys
Mystikal Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Be no fuck boy
Me, Gelatine, Big Rock
And the rest of the niggas in the big truck boy
Leather, screened up top, big chrome boys
Could get rough, that double barrel big strong boys (Better move)
Buckle up boy
Me, Gelatine, Big Rock
And the rest of the niggas in the big truck boy
Leather, screened up top, big chrome boys
Could get rough, that double barrel big strong boys
Runnin' up in my big truck boy, fucked up dog!
Respect my mind I keep my shit clean on big buck boy
White on black tinted windows with the big black bars
Nigga lookin' bitches flirtin' trying to get knocked off
Swingin' corners shake the sidewalk, them thangs hit hard
Ain't no mothafuckin' owners I'm my own landlord
Across the yard let the tires bark
Teared it up but I could pay for it
Somebody followin' me in my rear view and it probably them laws
They thinkin I'm slanging powder
But I ain't 'bout copin' no charge
Got some big titty broads, talkin' bout droppin' them draws
But I ain't got time, I'm bout to ride to them artists
Now pray my shit back then go play pool at the bar
After that take my shit over to bennys for water
I talk to Bell he said you talk to BK, I said no not today
I said you straight he said yes I'm on my way
Shit that's what I did,
I broke him off his
He showed me much love
That's when I split
Hop curbs! Run lights! Then streets!
Rollin' every small car on I-10 east
Buckle up boy
Be no fuck boy
Me, Gelatine, Big Rock
And the rest of the niggas in the big truck boy
Leather, screened up top, big chrome boys
Could get rough, that double barrel big strong boys
Buckle up boy
Be no fuck boy
Me, Gelatine, Big Rock
And the rest of the niggas in the big truck boy
Leather, screened up top, big chrome boys
Could get rough, that double barrel big strong boys
Tear that mothafuckin' interstate up
Talk on the phone, then drink and puff
State troopers can kiss my ass
Rest of y'all bitches gone eat my dust
Hit the city limit lil' children start screamin' out
"That's my truck!"
Pull up the red light nigga tryin' to wash the windshield
I tell 'em get back brah
Actin' terrible rollin' through Calridge
Catch up with the fellas, ex drug dealers, skrillas, and felons
Better watch out for car jackers
Some of the bitches ass niggas jealous
Betta lock your Tahoe
'Cause they coming to get your nichabellas
Uptown hot, nigga be servin' like Pete Sampras
Nigga be gelatine in the Navigator on P '93 dancin'
Keep hittin' this nigga on the Nextel but he ain't answerin'
Somewhere this nigga gettin' licked bet I already know whats happenin'
Buckle up boy
Be no fuck boy
Me, Gelatine, Big Rock
And the rest of the niggas in the big truck boy
Leather, screened up top, big chrome boys
Could get rough, that double barrel big strong boys (Better move)
Buckle up boy
Be no fuck boy
Me, Gelatine, Big Rock
And the rest of the niggas in the big truck boy
Leather, screened up top, big chrome boys
Could get rough, that double barrel big strong boys
My niggas either be on 18's or 19's
20'ed up, tinted up, piped up
Tanked up, filled up, grilled up, loaded, psyched up
Hyped up, iced up, polo striped up, mic'd up
They bus' fresh cuts, they dress, and they like big trucks
Big house, big car, big dogs, they like big stuff
Big gamblin', big paper, big smoke so puff puff puff
The care key open the sunroof and let the wind blow my hair
I turned off Lee Avenue boom! There them niggas go right there
Lookin' at all this chrome, will do harm to yo eye balls
If these niggas talk bumpity bumpity they won't even see the sidewalk
Showing off is a religion, look around
He aught know you, be in the Thomas, he goin' for ignant
Lookin' type, he go for strong and that's big gun
They go for drinkin' Courvaseour and mix behind you, one and one
A bunch of young black rich dangerous niggas havin' fun
Hollerin' at Q we got a show in Florida, here we come
Buckle up boy
Be no fuck, boy
Me, Gelatine, Big Rock
And the rest of the niggas in the big truck boy
Leather, screened up top, big chrome boys
Could get rough, that double barrel big strong boys (Better move)
Buckle up boy
Be no fuck boy
Me, Gelatine, Big Rock
And the rest of the niggas in the big truck boy
Leather, screened up top, big chrome boys
Could get rough, that double barrel big strong boys
Buckle up boy
Be no fuck, boy

And the rest of the niggas in the big truck boy
Leather, screened up top, big chrome boys
Could get rough, that double barrel big strong boys (Better move)
Buckle up boy

And the rest of the niggas in the big truck boy
Leather, screened up top, big chrome boys
Could get rough, that double barrel big strong boys

Rollin' every small car on I-10 east
I'm driving aggressively and intimidating other drivers
Tear that mothafuckin' interstate up
I'm taking control of the road and driving recklessly
Talk on the phone, then drink and puff
I'm multitasking and not paying attention to the road
State troopers can kiss my ass
I don't respect authority or law enforcement
Rest of y'all bitches gone eat my dust
Other drivers can't keep up with me and my truck
Hit the city limit lil' children start screamin' out 'That's my truck!'
My truck is well-known and recognized by others
Pull up the red light nigga tryin' to wash the windshield
Someone is trying to clean my windshield without permission
I tell 'em get back brah
I don't want them touching my truck
Actin' terrible rollin' through Calridge
I'm acting tough and intimidating in a specific location
Catch up with the fellas, ex drug dealers, skrillas, and felons
I'm hanging out with a group of guys with a shady past
Better watch out for car jackers
There's a risk of being robbed
Some of the bitches ass niggas jealous
People are envious of me and my crew
Betta lock your Tahoe
Make sure your car is secure and locked
'Cause they coming to get your nichabellas
People are trying to take what you have
Uptown hot, nigga be servin' like Pete Sampras
I'm popular and successful
Nigga be gelatine in the Navigator on P '93 dancin'
I'm dancing and enjoying myself in my Navigator car
Keep hittin' this nigga on the Nextel but he ain't answerin'
Someone isn't responding to my messages or calls
Somewhere this nigga gettin' licked bet I already know whats happenin'
I have a feeling about what's happening with this guy
My niggas either be on 18's or 19's
My associates have expensive cars with big wheels
20'ed up, tinted up, piped up
Their cars have additional features such as tinted windows and exhaust pipes
Tanked up, filled up, grilled up, loaded, psyched up
They're ready for anything and have their cars well taken care of
They bus' fresh cuts, they dress, and they like big trucks
They have expensive clothes and enjoy nice cars
Big house, big car, big dogs, they like big stuff
They have expensive possessions and enjoy showing them off
Big gamblin', big paper, big smoke so puff puff puff
They take risks with their money and enjoy smoking
The care key open the sunroof and let the wind blow my hair
I'm enjoying a luxurious car with a sunroof
I turned off Lee Avenue boom! There them niggas go right there
I've encountered some people I know in this area
Lookin' at all this chrome, will do harm to yo eye balls
My truck is shiny and eye-catching
If these niggas talk bumpity bumpity they won't even see the sidewalk
If they talk nonsense, they'll get hurt
Showing off is a religion, look around
Displaying wealth and power is important to many people
He aught know you, be in the Thomas, he goin' for ignant
Someone is criticizing another person's behavior
Lookin' type, he go for strong and that's big gun
Someone looks tough and appears to carry a weapon
They go for drinkin' Courvaseour and mix behind you, one and one
They enjoy drinking expensive alcohol
A bunch of young black rich dangerous niggas havin' fun
Wealth, youth, and recklessness can be a dangerous combination
Hollerin' at Q we got a show in Florida, here we come
We're excited to perform in Florida and are on our way
Be no fuck, boy
Again, don't be a coward
