Adrenaline Rush became Twista's first charting album, as it peaked at #77 on the Billboard Hot 200. Twista had by then dropped the 'Tung' from his stage name. This led to a Cwal's label deal with Atlantic Records, which released Adrenaline Rush in 1997.

In 1996, he teamed with Chicago producer The Legendary Traxster and Cwal's Do or Die on the track ' Po Pimp' produced by the Legendary Traxster, which became a hit single. His second album, titled Resurrection, was set to be released in 1994, but due to problems with his record label at the time Atlantic Records and marketing issues involving fellow Chicago rapper Common's album of the same name, the album was only released in the city of Chicago and thus got little national attention. In 1992, Mitchell released his first album called Runnin' Off at da Mouth under the name Tung Twista. 'I could just see you now with the look of disgust up on your face, to see the way I'm still killin' it,' Twista spits on 'War Ready.' But don't look away, or you'll miss a word.Carl Terrell Mitchell was born on November 27, 1973, and grew up in the K-Town area of the West Garfield Park neighborhood on the West Side of Chicago, Illinois and began rapping at the age of 12. But on 2019's Summer 96 mixtape, he revisits the high stakes of his days before stardom. Kelly-assisted 'So Sexy,' Twista became a bona fide Midwestern legend, rapping alongside Mariah Carey, Chris Brown, Lady Gaga, Pharrell, and many more for over a decade. With that love-themed single, another Kanye collab ('Overnight Celebrity'), and the R. All his work culminated in 2003's ubiquitous 'Slow Jamz' featuring Kanye West and Jamie Foxx, which finds West accelerating a Luther Vandross sample as all three artists pay homage to R&B icons.

After releasing 1997's Adrenaline Rush-a regional classic that laid his quick-tongued, laser-precise street lyrics over slinky, eerie production-Twista formed Speedknot Mobstaz while guesting on songs with Diddy, JAY-Z, and Ludacris. He released two albums in the early '90s, but his first major look came in 1996 alongside fellow Windy City emcees Do or Die on their 'Po Pimp,' which was formative for the city's rap scene. Born Carl Mitchell in 1973, Twista grew up on Chicago's West Side and started writing raps as a preteen, eventually landing in the Guinness Book of World Records in 1992 as the fastest rapper alive. There's fast-rapping, and then there's Twista, whose syllable-stuffing flows have put him in a class of his own and the company of music's all-time greats.
