[edit] Biography

Born in Denver, Colorado, Atllas and his family moved to the Maryvale section of Phoenix, Arizona in the early 1990s. As a fan of Michael Jordan, Hopkins originally dreamt of being an NBA star. He began focusing on music while attending Maryvale High School. Atllas and a group of friends began booking shows around the Phoenix Metropolitan Area. Atllas used the money from the bookings to invest in studio time, and began recording with his new local crew named the Phoenix Sector, also including Lyracist and Capum C.

In 2003, Atllas started his own independent record company, Fire Flock Entertainment. His first independent album, The King of AZ, was released that year. The single "Hood Famous" was played on Power 92, helping sell over 8,000 copies of the album.[citation needed] Atllas followed up in 2004 with a mixtape titled Let's Eat, which managed to sell over 7,000 copies.[citation needed]

By 2005, Atllas had become one of the most popular local artists in Arizona.[citation needed] His second album, Hunger and Starvation, released in the summer of 2005, sold over 40,000 copies.[citation needed] The album's success led to wider exposure and Atllas began opening for a number of prominent rap acts, including The Roots, Obie Trice, DJ Quik, Boot Camp Clik, Paul Wall, Dem Franchize Boyz, Cappadonna, Ludacris, Xzibit and P. Diddy. More national exposure came in 2006, when, in January, Atllas was featured as a coach on an episode of MTV's Made, in which a teenage girl from Sedona wished to become a rapper. Along with his TV appearance, Atllas' music began to receive more widespread attention. Due to his relationship with DJ Kayslay, the rapper's music received rotation on New York's Hot 97.[citation needed] Kayslay also hosted a 2006 Atllas mixtape titled The Birth of a Caesar. In return, the rapper made an appearance on Kayslay's 2006 mixtape The Champions.

Following his MTV appearance, Atllas received attention from numerous media sources. In May 2006, Atllas was featured in issues of both The Source and XXL, appearing in the former's Independent Album Review section, and the latter's Show & Prove section. Atllas is currently recording material for his third album, titled Say Hello to the Crook.[citation needed] The album's lead single, "We Here to Party", received rotation in over 20 cities in late 2006.[citation needed] He is also working on two separate film projects, a documentary titled The Chronicles of a Hustler and a film titled Hood Famous, both of which will feature original soundtracks.
