Early life

Mann grew up in Sacramento.[3] He became a fan of east coast rappers such as Rakim and Slick Rick.[4] He started rapping at the age of 13.[5] He became a member of the 24 Street Garden Blocc Crips by age 16 during the 1980s.[3] He was once shot in the side after trying to break up a confrontation between a Crip and a Blood at a house party; the bullet was never removed.[3]

The Garden Blocc Crips are said to consist of three subsets: 21st street, 24th street and 29th street. They are said to historically have a rivalry with the Meadowview Bloods which apparently escalated in the early 1990s resulting in several homicides and in 1992, a 31-year prison conviction for fellow Meadowview rapper, 24th Street gang member and friend of Mann; X-Raided.

Music career

Musical style

Although often credited as being a major pioneer and even the main creator of the horrorcore rap genre, Mann himself has claimed that his style is less literally “horrorcore” and instead falls more directly under his own distinct category or sub-category of rap called “Ripgut” which specifically emphasizes (usually graphic) violence.

The Ripgut genre itself reportedly stemmed from his love of meat but this lyrical style is also sometimes considered to be either associated with or connected to the common thoughts and feelings occasionally experienced during manic and/or violent states of mind brought on by the use of certain illicit drugs such as phencyclidine (PCP).

1993-2002: Black Market Records

In 1993^{[citation needed]} Black Market Records released Mann's first EP, 24 Deep.[6] followed by an album every year or two: Season of da Siccness in 1995,[7] Loaded in 1997, EBK4 and the soundtrack to the horror comedy film Now Eat in 2000,[8] The Virus in 2001, and three compilations, Appearances: Book 1, Remains: Book II, and Book III, in 2002.

Brother Lynch Hung appeared on No Limit Records's May 1997 release, I'm Bout It. Brother Lynch Hung wrote, produced, and performed on the song "Situations On Dirty".

24 Deep reached No. 91 on Billboard's R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart,[9] and Season of da Siccness reached No. 26.^{[citation needed]}

2003-2008: Lynch by Inch: Suicide Note, The Ripgut Collection and Snuff Tapes

Lynch had three releases on different record labels during this time period. He released Lynch by Inch: Suicide Note in June 2003 under Siccmade Music. It was the first album since EBK4 to make it to the Billboard 200 and his first solo album not released on Black Market Records. He then released The Ripgut Collection compilation on Madesicc in 2007 and Snuff Tapes "mix tape" in 2008 which is available on the website Siccness.net. Both releases enter the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums peaking at 55 and 78 respectively.

2009 - 2013: Strange Music

In May 2009, Mann signed a contract with Strange Music.[10] He released three albums own the label, Dinner and a Movie (2010), Coathanga Strangla (2011), and Mannibalector (2013).[11] The label offered to extend his contract after the third album was released but decided to stay independent on his own label Madesicc Musicc.[11]

Controversy
