Career with Three 6 Mafia


Cooper joined the memphis rap group Three 6 Mafia in 1993 . According to Lord Infamous , he went to the same high school as DJ Paul . He was featured on numerous Three 6 Mafia albums including the platinum selling When the Smoke Clears: Sixty 6, Sixty 1 . He left the group in 2000 after the release of the album. He left not because of payment issues, but because he was incarcerated and unable to make shows. An appearance on former Three 6 Mafia affiliate; Kingpin Skinny Pimp's ''2000's Rapdope Game (where Kingpin Skinny Pimp clearly insults DJ Paul and Juicy J ) Which he had no knowledge of. allegedly caused tension between Cooper and the rest of the group.Citation needed|date=December 2010

Legal Troubles


In 2006, Cooper was arrested for aggravated robbery of friend and Memphis rapper Justin "Lil' J" Thurman, whom Cooper held at gunpoint and demanded $7000. Robert "Koopsta Knicca" Cooper denies Robing anyone. He states guns were pulled on him so he went back with other intentions and not to "rob" anyone. Coincidentally, this occurred the same night his former group Three 6 Mafia won the Best Original Song Academy Award for It's Hard out Here for a Pimp , from the movie Hustle & Flow . http://www.youtube.com/watch? v=VusYv_kKEdQ
