Chalie Boy put out mixtapes for a decade before recently signing to Dirty 3rd/Jive/Battery Records. “As I was shopping around for deals, mixtapes kept my name afloat in the music industry,” he says. “Eventually, the buzz off my mixtapes not only got me signed, but it got me paid work through features on others’ albums and mixtapes as well as show performances.”
Now, Chalie Boy is prepping the release of his major-label self-titled debut album; the lead single, “I Look Good,” peaked at No. 20 on Billboard’s Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart in December.
