Early life[edit]
Johnson was born and raised in San Diego, California. By the age of 12 he had begun writing rhymes, and has said that after his first live performance he was overwhelmed with emotion from the euphoric experience, and 'immediately became addicted to performing live'.[3] He left home and began travelling around the United States, going from place to place and selling albums of his music for the money he needed for food and accommodation. When his first album, Shoot for the Face, came out in 2006, he was homeless at the time.
Musical career[edit]
Twisted Insane raps in the Chopper style of rap,[3] a very fast-paced style that originated in the Midwestern United States. He may have been influenced by fellow artists Tech N9ne, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, Twista and Busta Rhymes .[4] He started his career travelling across the United States, selling CDs of his music in order to pay for food and accommodation.[5] However, he began to garner a cult following of those who appreciated his incredible rapping speed and verbal ability. His first studio album, Shoot for the Face, was released in 2006 and included 21 songs, featuring fellow artists Catmando, Guaran-T, West Craven, T-Nutty, Lil Face and Beezo. His second album, The Monster in the Dark, was released in 2007 and was composed of 18 songs, featuring Mitchy Slick, Spice 1, Beezo, Young Bop, Marvaless, Zigg Zagg and C-Bo.[1][6]
After featuring on Tech N9ne's single 'Worldwide Choppers' in May 2011, alongside well-known rappers such as Busta Rhymes and Twista, he was introduced to a much wider fanbase across the world. The song remains Twisted Insane's biggest hit so far in the United States, peaking at #15 on the BillboardU.S. Heatseekers Songs chart, #30 on the R&B/Hip-HopDigital Song Sales chart[7] and #4 on the Bubbling Under Hot 100.[8] Following on from this, in October 2011 he released his third album, The Root of All Evil, which was 18 tracks long and featured Chris Ray, Ric Nutt, Zigg Zagg, Marvaless, Key Loom, Bishop, C-Bo, Ise B, Ms. Karamel and T-Nutty.[1][6]
June 2013 saw Twisted Insane release his fourth album, The Insane Asylum, including 20 songs, featuring Charles Xavier, Firing Squad, C Mob, Mitchy Slick, Key Loom, Redro Killson, Bishop, Bleezo, Kung Fu Vampire, Poverty's Posterboy, West Craven, Hurricane, Mr. Dos Muchos, Troll, D Loc, Crucified and Z.[1][6] In July that year he was featured on the lead single of Tech N9ne's album Something Else, 'So Dope (They Wanna)' alongside Wrekonize and Snow Tha Product. He was also featured in the music video for this track.[9]
In 2014 Twisted Insane released The Last Demon, his fifth album, with 22 tracks, including collaborations with artists Rittz, JellyRoll, Charlie Ray, Khadijah Lopez, Iso, Kamikazi and Aqualeo. Voodoo, his sixth album, was released in 2015, and had 20 tracks, including guest appearances from Redro Killson, Jarren Benton, Khadijah Lopez, Dayo G, Qlayz, Tanqueray Locc, Bleezo and Charlie Ray. In 2016, he released a collaboration album with Charlie Ray, The Gatekeeper and the Keymaster, with 15 songs also featuring T Nutty. In the same year he released a solo album entitled Shoot for the Face 2, a sequel to his first album with 18 tracks, featuring Dalima, Kamikazi, Charlie Ray, Dikulz, Brotha Lynch Hung, Blayne and rapper Lyrikal.His latest album, In My Darkest Hour, released in 2017, included 19 tracks, and C-Mob, Z, Dayo G and Charlie Ray are credited as performers.[1][6]
