When it comes to working hard and staying focused, look no further than 2 Chainz. In 2012, the Atlanta rhymer made cameos on over 40 rap songs. Whoa!

And when he wasn’t on your favorite rapper’s hit single, the 'No Lie' artist was dropping club bangers of his own, like 'I'm Different' and the ubiquitous party anthem 'Birthday Song.'

But don't call 2 Chainz a new jack. The College Park, Ga., native has been rocking the mic since 1997, when he went by the name of Tity Boy in the group Playerz Circle. Now, he's a Grammy-nominated artist thanks to his debut album, 'Based on a T.R.U. Story,' and his infallible worth ethic. True!
