Ludacris is an Atlanta rapper and actor with three Grammy Awards from 20 nominations, including Best Rap Album for Release Therapy and Best Rap Song for "Money Maker" at the 2007 ceremony. Born Christopher Bridges in Champaign, Illinois, he worked as a DJ before founding Disturbing tha Peace to release his debut, Incognegro. The single "What's Your Fantasy" led Def Jam to reissue it as Back for the First Time in 2000, which reached number four on the Billboard 200 and added "Southern Hospitality" with Pharrell. Word of Mouf, Chicken-n-Beer and The Red Light District kept the run going, and he topped the Hot 100 as a lead artist with "Stand Up" and "Money Maker." As a guest he reached number one on Usher's "Yeah!", which won a Grammy, Fergie's "Glamorous" and Taio Cruz's "Break Your Heart," and he featured on Justin Bieber's "Baby." Later albums include Theater of the Mind and Ludaversal. On screen he has played Tej Parker in the Fast & Furious films since 2 Fast 2 Furious, and shared a Screen Actors Guild Award with the cast of Crash.
