Biography

[edit]

The three members of Trillville met as high school students in Atlanta. Glaze led the snare drums in the school's marching band, Don P wrote rhymes and produced beats on his keyboard, and Edwards was an aspiring promoter. They named their group "Trillville" combining the words "truth" and "real", with " Prince ", Glaze "Dirty Mouth", and Edwards "Lil Atlanta" (later "Lil LA" and "LA").[1][2][3]

Lil Jon discovered Trillville at a sold-out show and signed the group to BME Recordings. Trillville debuted in 2003 with the single "Neva Eva", which peaked at #77 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #28 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs charts in 2004. Collaborating with Lil Scrappy, Trillville came out with debut album The King of Crunk & BME Recordings Present: Trillville & Lil Scrappy in 2004.[1][4] It featured the single "Some Cut", which peaked at #14 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2005.[5] Vibe described Trillville & Lil Scrappy as a crunk album and quoted Don P: "Our music is about whatever will make people move those [elbows] and be free about whatever they do."[2]

Dirty Mouth left Trillville in 2007 to pursue a solo career, and Trillville left BME in January 2008.[6] Trillville's second album Straight Up. No Chaser came out in 2008 released under the Swag Up label.[7] With Dirty Mouth returning, Trillville released third album 3 Da' Hard Way in 2011.,[8] Recently Trillville has released their new group album “Dat Drip” on September 7, 2018.[9]
