Comprised of Bryan Baby Williams, Cash Money Records co-founder, and Mannie Fresh, the labels in-house producer, Big Tymers incorporated substantial outside talent into their ranks and scored some huge hits in the process. Beginning with the duos first release in 1998, How You Luv That? (re-released as How You Luv That?, Vol. 2 later that year), Big Tymers featured all of the rappers on Cash Moneys roster: initially Lil Wayne, BG, Juvenile, and Turk; later T.Q., Boo, and Gotti; and others as well. This plethora of outside assistance served many purposes, among them promoting the labels solo artists and also taking some of the spotlight off from Williams and Fresh, who admittedly werent two of the labels better rappers, recognized instead for their overly brash style of ghetto haughtiness. The two drastically improved their rapping, and more importantly their songwriting, for I Got That Work (2000) and Hood Rich (2002), their second and third albums, respectively. These albums spawned two sizable hits a piece — Get Your Roll On and #1 Stunna on the former, Still Fly and Oh Yeah! on the latter — and made Big Tymers the most consistent Cash Money act following the departure of Juvenile from the label.
