RAW'LT - 3:38



In a male dominated industry, dominated by male voices, male testosterone, and male influences, there stands a woman humble, a woman on the horizon of success and a woman ready to claim her throne in the world of hip-hop. That woman is Houston’s own Raw’LT. When spoken it sounds like “royalty”, perhaps fitting for an entertainer who has dubbed herself the “Queen of the Dirty 3rd”. Raw’LT however simply means “Raw like that”, defining her raw flows, personality, and passion to succeed.

Born Tiffany McNeil, on the same Houston south side notorious for producing some of H-Town’s hottest talent. Raw’LT quickly learned how to fend for herself, with her mother absent most of her childhood and a father that worked around the clock; she had no choice but develop a tough skin in a dog-eat-dog world, the kind of tough skin needed in an industry that has chewed up and spit out so many dreams. She has seen the best and worst of some Houston’s most prominent hoods, including Third Ward and Hiram Clarke before settling in Southwest Houston.

It was in high school that this upcoming female phenomenon developed a fierce flow, and an addictive persona that propelled her to success. Winning freestyle battle after freestyle battle against established male emcees, Raw’LT made a name for herself and was a force to be reckoned with. “My success is based off of the relationships I’ve built throughout the years. I gained respect in this city by stepping out and not being afraid to show what I could do. I never bragged that I could spit, I just stepped to the plate and showed what I could do.” That attitude is what garnered the attention of BBH Entertainment’s Big Bank Hank, who jumped at the opportunity to sign and deliver the rap game’s best kept secret.

Now motivated by her family and an infectious passion to be recognized globally, Raw’LT is on the brink of success on the eve of her debut album adequately titled, “Category 6”. Category 6 promises to deliver and showcase a true talent coupled with crafty production and blazing lyrics. While most women these days use sex and raunchy lyrics as a pedestal to the top, Raw’LT goes head to head with the big boys, with versatile lyrics and a swagger undoubtedly that suggests she knows she’s that hot. The album contains club bangers, ladies anthems, and a complete glimpse into the life of the sexy artist. “My fans can expect a variety of songs from club bangers like “Both Ways” featuring Lil Boosie; bang in your ride hit’s like “Getcha Mind Right” featuring Bun B. The album will also boasts appearances from Juvenile, Slim Thug, Billy Cook and her personal favorite Devine, her younger sister featured on the song “My Life”.

Raw’LT has also developed a business sense and has aspirations of becoming an entrepreneur. She plans to open her own management company that will focus ing up and coming female emcees. She also desires to get her hands involved in a family owned business. “My biggest factor is staying focused and pushing myself better than my parents and not letting their mistakes or downfalls control my life and future. I’ve learned that prayer is powerful and that you can’t please everyone. I do me and keep it moving”. On the move indeed she is…destination, to the top.
