With the cockiness of a rockstar and the business sense of a CEO, Tyree “Celebrity” Smith is not your typical “new” artist in need of grooming. Having already been a part of the Outsidaz; a very well known underground group (eventually signed to Ruffhouse/Columbia), consisting of artists such as: Eminem, Rah Digga, Young Zee, and many more honorary members. Under the name "Axe", Celebrity recorded two albums with The Outsidaz titled, "The Bricks" and "Nightlife" and toured with the group around the world, performing in front of huge crowds. Celebrity also took part in overseas' collaborations such as “Diggin' Your Steelo” by Sat-r-day, a popular group from Amsterdam. Celebrity eventually relocated to Atlanta from hometown Newark, New Jersey to nurture an already developing business sense and further master his musical craft. Celebrity has since branched out on his own as a emerging solo artist on his label Rockstarz Entertainment. He released 2 mixtapes in 2005, "Paid in my prime", and "729", Followed by the release of his 3rd mixtape in '06 "A Star Is Born". Celebrity recently released "The Beginning of The End" mixtape, hosted by DJ Envy and shot the video for "Doing Our Thang", the first single off of the upcoming and well anticipated E.P "The #2." His tracks are a well balanced mixture of hip-hop & rock . This combined with Celebrity's rockstar sense of style, always makes him the stand out personality and a fan favorite. With the backing of a major label, Celebrity is destined for success.
