Slim Thug (born Stayve Jerome Thomas on September 8, 1980 in Houston, Texas) [ [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2265540/bio Slim Thug - Biography (IMDB)] ] is an American rapper. He gained mainstream attention for his contribution to the popular single from rapper Mike Jones, “Still Tippin”. He began his career with Swishahouse in the late 90s. After realizing how much money he could make distributing his own mixtapes, he parted ways with Swishahouse on good terms and formed his own independent label, Boss Hogg Outlawz (named after the Dukes of Hazzard character). Slim Thug has since worked with Interscope Records until August 3, 2008, where he went to Koch Records.
