Career
Crunchy left Three 6 Mafia over monetary disputes involving his desire to forward his solo career. Black’s debut solo album entitled On My Own was released on September 19, 2006. Crunchy has said this album was released by DJ Paul and Juicy J without his permission.
Crunchy’s second solo album, From Maine To You is also said to have been put out without his permission by DJ Paul and Juicy J. From Maine To You reached 12 on the Billboard Top Heatseekers chart, 32 on the Top Rhythm & Blues/Hip-Hop chart, and 10 on the Billboard Top Rap albums chart.
"On My Own" reached 3 on the Billboard Top Heatseekers chart, 163 on the Billboard 200, 15 on the Billboard Independent Albums chart, 28 on the Top Rhythm & Blues/Hip-Hop chart, and 13 on the Billboard Top Rap Albums chart. In 2013, Crunchy Black joined Da Mafia 6ix, a reincarnation of Three 6 Mafia with DJ Paul and Koopsta Knicca.
He has a daughter named Ladee Pooh Carlton. Crunchy contributed heavily to Platinum albums When the Smoke Clears: Sixty 6, Sixty 1, and Most Known Unknown, as well as Gold albums Da Unbreakables, and Chapter 2: World Domination with Three 6 Mafia.
Crunchy is known for g-walking, which he says he started doing in Memphis Clubs but admits he is not the originator.
He was shot in the face and the leg in Las Vegas on July 1, 2012 and recovered very quickly from the injuries and was released from the hospital just days after the shooting. In March 2014, Crunchy Black was arrested on two domestic violence charges and one possession of cocaine charge in Minnesota. He currently has three felony warrants issued by Stearns County, Minnesota.
All three warrants carry nationwide extradition.
TMZ broke the story. He was incarcerated and has since been freed.
